Problem 3

Disjoint events are two (or more) events that cannot happen at the same time. An example would be flipping heads and tails at the same time with the same coin. Another example is selecting an ace of spades and selecting an ace of diamonds, when you only select one card.

In general notation, P(A and B) = 0 if and only if A and B are disjoint.

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 0.3 + 0.1 - 0

<h3>P(A or B) = 0.4</h3>

=========================================

Problem 5

Same idea, but different numbers

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 1/3 + 1/4 - 0

P(A or B) = 4/12 + 3/12 - 0

<h3>P(A or B) = 7/12</h3>

Hello! Can someone help with this question?
IgorC [24]

Hello! :)

\large\boxed{\text{70 seconds}}

Use a proportion to find how many seconds are needed to fold 5 shirts.

We are given that he takes 28 seconds to fold 2 shirts:

28 sec : 2 shirts

We are not given the amount of time needed for 5 shirts, which we need to solve:

x seconds : 5 shirts

Express in a fraction:

\frac{2 shirts}{28 seconds}  = \frac{5 shirts}{xseconds}

Cross multiply and simplify:

2 * x = 5 * 28\\\\2x = 140\\\\x = 70 sec

Therefore, he needs 70 seconds to fold 5 shirts.
