If events A and B are independent, what must be true?A.) P(AB) = P(B)
anygoal [31]

Answer:

B.) P(A/B) = P(A)

Step-by-step explanation:

If two events, A and B are independent:

We have that:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Since they are independent:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)

Then

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{P(A)P(B)}{P(A)} = P(B)

So

P(B|A) = P(B), or either:

P(A|B) = P(A), and thus, the correct answer is given by option B.

16 feet equal how many yards?
elixir [45]

We know that there are 3 feet in one yard. So, to find out how many yards is equivalent to 16 feet, we must divide this number by 3.

16/3 or 5 1/3

Therefore, 16 feet is equal to 16/3 or 5 1/3 yards.

Hope this helps!

The sum of digits in a two digit number formed by two digits from 1 to 9 is 8. If 9 is added to a number then both the digits be
Arturiano [62]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

Here we need to set a system of two linear equations in two variables. So:

  • <em>The sum of digits in a two digit number formed by two digits from 1 to 9 is 8:</em>

Let x \ and \ y be those digits, then:

x+y=8 \ \ldots eq1

  • <em>If 9 is added to a number then both the digits become equal. find the number:</em>

<em />

<em />10x+y+9 \ldots expression \ 1<em />

<em />

But from eq 1:

y=8-x

Substituting y into the expression 1:

10x+(8-x)+9=9x+17

The x-value will be found by hit and trial, so:

  • Let x = 1:

9x + 17 = 9(1)+17 = 26

We have to reject this solution because digits are different.

  • Let x = 2:

9x + 17 = 9(2)+17 = 35

We have to reject this solution because digits are different.

  • Let x = 3:

9x + 17 = 9(3)+17 = 44

<em>Then this is a two digit number formed by two equal digits. </em>

Finally, the number is:

44
