Stats 10: J and K are independent events. P(J/K)=0.1. Find P(J)

2 answers:

7 0

P(J/K) = 0.1 means that the probability of event J happening with respect to K is 0.1.However, since J and K are independent events, they are not related to each other. Thus, what ever the probability of event K is, it would not affect the probability of event J happening. So, P(J) would still be equal to 1.

Based on the given statements above, it is mentioned that both J and K are independent events. Therefore, in order to know what is the probability if J, we can still say that it is still 0.1 knowing that again, each of them is independent. I hope that answers your question.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ A(x_1,\ y_1)\ \text{and}\ B(x_2,\ y_2).\ \text{Then the distance between}\ A\ \text{and}\ B\ \text{is:}\\\\|AB|=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y1)^2}\\\\Example:\\\\A(2,\ 5),\ B(-1,\ 1)\\\\|AB|=\sqrt{(-1-2)^2+(1-5)^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}=5$

Litter such as leaves falls to the forest floor, where the action of insects and bacteria initiates the decay process. Let A be

Travka [436]

Answer:

D = L/k

Step-by-step explanation:

Since A represents the amount of litter present in grams per square meter as a function of time in years, the net rate of litter present is

dA/dt = in flow - out flow

Since litter falls at a constant rate of L grams per square meter per year, in flow = L

Since litter decays at a constant proportional rate of k per year, the total amount of litter decay per square meter per year is A × k = Ak = out flow

So,

dA/dt = in flow - out flow

dA/dt = L - Ak

Separating the variables, we have

dA/(L - Ak) = dt

Integrating, we have

∫-kdA/-k(L - Ak) = ∫dt

1/k∫-kdA/(L - Ak) = ∫dt

1/k㏑(L - Ak) = t + C

㏑(L - Ak) = kt + kC

㏑(L - Ak) = kt + C' (C' = kC)

taking exponents of both sides, we have

$L - Ak = e^{kt + C'} \\L - Ak = e^{kt}e^{C'}\\L - Ak = C"e^{kt} (C" = e^{C'} )\\Ak = L - C"e^{kt}\\A = \frac{L}{k} - \frac{C"}{k} e^{kt}$

When t = 0, A(0) = 0 (since the forest floor is initially clear)

$A = \frac{L}{k} - \frac{C"}{k} e^{kt}\\0 = \frac{L}{k} - \frac{C"}{k} e^{k0}\\0 = \frac{L}{k} - \frac{C"}{k} e^{0}\\\frac{L}{k} = \frac{C"}{k} \\C" = L$
