A man has mislaid his wallet. He thinks there is a 0.4 chance that the wallet is somewhere in his bedroom, a 0.1 chance it is in

lana [24]

Answer:

a. Probability = 0.15

b. Probability = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P(Bedroom) = 0.4$

$P(Kitchen) = 0.1$

$P(Bathroom) = 0.2$

$P(Living\ room) = 0.15$

Solving (a): Probability of being somewhere else

This is calculated by subtracting the sum of given probabilities from 1.

$Probability = 1 - (0.4 + 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.15)$

$Probability = 1 - 0.85$

$Probability = 0.15$

Solving (b): Probability of being in bedroom or kitchen

This is calculated as:

$Probability = P(Bedroom) + P(Kitchen)$

$Probability = 0.2 + 0.1$

$Probability = 0.3$

For the system of equations that follows, use Gaussian elimination to obtain an equivalent system whose coefficient matrix is in

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 0 & 0& 46/41 &180/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

System of equations given as

x₁ + 3x₂ + x₃ + x₄ = 3;

2x₁ - 2x₂ + x₃ + 2x₄ = 8;

x₁ - 5x₂ + x₄ = 5

Matrix form

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\2 & -2 & 1&2&8\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$ $\begin{Vmatrix}x_1\\x_2\\x_3\\x_4\end{Vmatrix}$

Generally the echelon reduction is mathematically applied as

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\2 & -2 & 1&2&8\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -2 times the 1st row to the 2nd row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & -8 & -1&0&2\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Multiply the 2nd row by -1/8

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -1 times the 2nd row to the 3rd row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&0 & -41/8 & 1& 21/4\end{Vmatrix}$

Multiply the 3rd row by -8/41

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -1/8 times the 3rd row to the 2nd row

Add -1 times the 3rd row to the 1st row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 0&49/41&165/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -3 times the 2nd row to the 1st row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 0 & 0& 46/41 &180/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$
