Suppose two events A and B are mutually exclusive, with P(A) ≠ 0 and P(B) ≠ 0. By working through the following steps, you'll se

e why two mutually exclusive events are not independent. (a) For mutually exclusive events, can event A occur if event B has occurred? Yes. By definition, mutually exclusive events can occur together. No. Two events will never occur concurrently. Yes. Any two events can occur concurrently. No. By definition, mutually exclusive events cannot occur together. What is the value of P(A|B)? (b) Using the information from part (a), can you conclude that events A and B are not independent if they are mutually exclusive? Explain. Yes. Because P(A|B) ≠ P(A), the events A and B are not independent. No. Two events being mutually exclusive always implies independence. No. Because P(A|B) ≠ P(A), the events A and B may be independent. Yes. Two events being mutually exclusive always implies independence.

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two events A and B are mutually exclusive.

A\cap B=\phi

P(A\cap B)=0

P(A)\neq 0

P(B)\neq 0

a.For mutually exclusive events,

P(A/B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{0}{P(A)}=0

Therefore, event A can not occurred if event B has occurred because two events can not occur together.

Answer:No, by definition mutually exclusive events cannot occur together.

b.When two events are independent

Then , P(A\cap B)=P(A)\cdot P(B)

P(A/B)=\frac{P(A)\cdot P(B)}{P(B)}=P(A)

If two events are mutually exclusive then

P(A\cap B)=0

Then , P(A/B)=0

Therefore, P(A/B)\neq P(A)

Hence, we can concluded that events A and B are not independent if they are mutually exclusive.

Answer:Yes, P(A/B)\neq P(A)

Help with this pleaseeee​
ELEN [110]

Answer:

(- 3, 37) and (- \frac{5}{2}, \frac{63}{2} )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x² - y + 19 = 0 → (1)

y + 11x = 4 → (2) ← subtract 11x from both sides

y = 4 - 11x → (3)

Substitute y = 4 - 11x into (1)

2x² - (4 - 11x) + 19 = 0

2x² - 4 + 11x + 19 = 0

2x² + 11x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form

(2x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 5 ⇒ x = - \frac{5}{2}

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y

x = - \frac{5}{2} : y = 4 + \frac{55}{2} = \frac{63}{2} ⇒ (- \frac{5}{2}, \frac{63}{2} )

x = - 3 : y = 4 + 33 = 37 ⇒ (- 3, 37 )

A music buff wants to estimate the percentage of students at a midwestern university who believe that elvis is still alive. how
gulaghasi [49]
Since we are not given any information about the proportion, we will assume the sample proportion to be 0.50

so,
p = 0.50
The Error is 10% percentage point. This means that on either side of the population proportion the error is 5% so E = 0.05
z = 1.645 (Z value for 90% confidence interval)

The margin of error for population proportion is calculated as:

E=z* \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }  \\  \\ 
 \frac{E}{z} = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }  \\  \\ 
( \frac{E}{z} )^{2}= \frac{p(1-p)}{n} \\  \\ 
n= p(1-p)* (\frac{z}{E})^{2}  \\  \\ 
n=271

This means 271 students should be included in the sample
