If A and B are mutually independent, then \mathbb P(A\cup B)=\mathbb P(A)+\mathbb P(B) and \mathbb P(A\cap B)=0.

If A and C are independent, then \mathbb P(A\cap C)=\mathbb P(A)\cdot\mathbb P(C). Ditto for B and C.

The inclusion/exclusion principle says that

\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=\mathbb P(A)+\mathbb P(B)+\mathbb P(C)-\mathbb P(A\cap B)-\mathbb P(A\cap C)-\mathbb P(B\cap C)+\mathbb P(A\cap B\cap C)

Since A and B are mutually exclusive, their intersection is the empty set. It then follows that A\cap B\cap C also is the empty set, so the last probability is also 0.

Plug in what we know:

\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=0.2+0.4+0.1-0-0.2\cdot0.1-0.4\cdot0.1+0

\implies\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=0.64

Monica spent 3/4 hours listening to tapes of Beethoven and Brahms. She spent 1/5 hours listening to Beethoven . How many hours w
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Monica spent 0.55 hours listening to Brahms.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Amount of time spent  listening to tapes of Beethoven and Brahms =

=\dfrac{3}{4}

Amount of time spent  listening to Beethoven =

=\dfrac{1}{5}

Total time spent listening to Brahms =

Amount of time spent  listening to tapes of Beethoven and Brahms - Amount of time spent  listening to Beethoven

=\dfrac{3}{4}-\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{15-4}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{11}{20}\text{ Hours}\\\\=0.55\text{ Hours}

Thus, Monica spent  \frac{11}{20}\text{ hours} listening to Brahms.

The graph of a logarithmic function is shown below.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

x > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain of a function is defined by the set of x-values of the graph of a function.

From the graph attached,

x-values are starting from x > 0 [Since x ≠ 0] and moves towards infinity,

Therefore, domain of the function will be,

(0, ∞) Or x > 0

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 29) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 28) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{28-29}{0+4} = - \frac{1}{4}

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 28 ) ⇒ c = 28

y = - \frac{1}{4} x + 28 ← equation of line → D
