For independent events,
P(X ∩ Y) = P(X)* P(Y)
=>
1/3 = P(X)*(5/6)
solve for P(X) =>
P(X) = (1/3)*(6/5) = 2/5 = 0.4

Select all the pairs of equivalent expressions.

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(3^4)^4=3^8\cdot3^8}\\\boxed{4^3\cdot5^3=20^3}\\\boxed{(4^3)^3=4^3\cdot4^3\cdo4^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$a^n\cdot a^n=a^{n+m}\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{n\cdot m}\\\\(a\cdot b)^n=a^n\cdot b^n\\=====================$

$(4^3)^3=4^{3\cdot3}=4^9\\4^3\cdot4^3=4^{3+3}=4^6\\\\4^9\neq4^6\to(4^3)^3\neq4^3\cdot4^3\\==================$

$(3^4)^4=3^{4\cdot4}=3^{16}\\3^8\cdot3^8=3^{8+8}=3^{16}\\\\(3^4)^4=3^8\cdot3^8\\================$

$6^4\cdot3^4=(6\cdot3)^4=18^4\\\\18^4\neq18^8\to6^4\cdot3^4\neq18^8\\=================$

$4^3\cdot5^3=(4\cdot5)^3=20^3\\\\4^3\cdot5^3=20^3\\=================$

$(4^3)^3=4^{3\cdot3}=4^9\\4^3\cdot4^3\cdot4^3=4^{3+3+3}=4^9\\\\(4^3)^3=4^3\cdot4^3\cdot4^3$
