Answer:

\mathbf{ 0.6 \times 0.5 = 0.3 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M denote the event that the stock makes money and D denote the event that the stock pays dividends.

It is given that P(M) = 0.6

Observe that the two events M and D are not independent because if the stock doesn't make money then it will not pay dividends. Therefore the event D | M^{c} (D given M does not occur) is a null event, i.e

P(D|M^{c}) = 0

It is also given that,

P(D|M) = 0.5

Recall that : P(D|M) = \frac{P(D \cap M)}{P(M)}

Here, we are required to find P(D \cap M)

P(D \cap M) =P(D|M) \times P(M)= 0.5 \times 0.6 = 0.3

F(x) = 4x^3+...+ 9<br>list all possible rational zeroes of the function​
Maru [420]

The Rational Root Theorem says any rational zeros of f must be a fraction with a factor of the constant (9 here) in the numerator and a factor of the leading coefficient (4 here) in the denominator.   We have to include negative factors.

Factors of 9:  -9, -3, -1, 1, 3, 9

Factors of 4: 1, 2, 4

We only have to consider negative numbers for the numerator to get all the possible values.

We just make the list, going through all the numerators one denominator at a time.

Possible rational zeros, i.e. possible rational values for x such that f(x)=0 are

Answer: -9, -3, -1, 1, 3, 9,   -9/2, -3/2, -1/2, 1/2, 3/2, 9/2,   -9/4, -3/4, -1/4, 1/4, 3/4, 9/4
