Answer:
The length of the strip of fabric is 32 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
The length of the edges of the square pillow should be 8 inches.
She needs a strip of fabric four times as long as one of the pillow to make a border around the pillow.
The length of the strip of fabric = 4×8 inches
The length of the strip of fabric = 32 inches
Hence, the length of the strip of fabric is 32 inches.
Answer:
0.064
Step-by-step explanation:
25000(1-0.8)^8
= 25000(0.2)^8
= 0.064
1. Introduction. This paper discusses a special form of positive dependence.
Positive dependence may refer to two random variables that have
a positive covariance, but other definitions of positive dependence have
been proposed as well; see [24] for an overview. Random variables X =
(X1, . . . , Xd) are said to be associated if cov{f(X), g(X)} ≥ 0 for any
two non-decreasing functions f and g for which E|f(X)|, E|g(X)|, and
E|f(X)g(X)| all exist [13]. This notion has important applications in probability
theory and statistical physics; see, for example, [28, 29].
However, association may be difficult to verify in a specific context. The
celebrated FKG theorem, formulated by Fortuin, Kasteleyn, and Ginibre in
[14], introduces an alternative notion and establishes that X are associated if
