Answer:

B. P(A)=0.2, P(B)=0.1, P(C)=0.7

E. P(A)=0.3, P(B)=0.3, P(C)=0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

A fundamental property of probability is that the sum of the probabilities of the events is equal to 1.

Another property is that the probability of any event must be greater than or equal to zero, it can never be a negative value.

Case A. P(A)=0.1, P(B)=0.1, P(C)=1

P(A) + P(B) + P(C) = 0.1 + 0.1 + 1 = 1.2 ≠ 1 (It is not a legitimate probability model)

Case B. P(A)=0.2, P(B)=0.1, P(C)=0.7

P(A) + P(B) + P(C) = 0.2 + 0.1 + 0.7 = 1 (It is a legitimate probability model)

Case C. P(A)=-0.4, P(B)=0.9, P(C)=0.5

P(B) = -0.4 is a negative value (It is not a legitimate probability model)

Case D. P(A)=0.5, P(B)=0,P(C)=0.4

P(A) + P(B) + P(C) = 0.5 + 0 + 0.4 = 0.9 ≠ 1 (It is not a legitimate probability model)

Case E. P(A)=0.3, P(B)=0.3, P(C)=0.4

P(A) + P(B) + P(C) = 0.3 + 0.3 + 0.4 = 1 (It is a legitimate probability model)

Hope this helps!

A recipe for cake needs 3/4 if a cup of milk. you are making 1/2 of the recipe.his much milk do you need
r-ruslan [8.4K]
I would say it's 3/8 of a cup because if you multiply 3/4 by 2 it would be 6/8. It's the same amount but just a different measurement. Now just take 3 away from 6/8 and you have 3/8 which is half of 3/4.

Answer: 3 4/9 and 4 19/29

Step-by-step explanation: Mixed fractions can be converted into improper fractions. Example: 3 1/2=

3×2+1= 7/2

So, 3 4/9= 3×9+4= 31/9

4 19/29= 4×29+19= 135/29
