Answer:
there is a 64% chance that the student got both problems wrong
a 32% chance that they got only 1 correct
and a 4% chance that they got both correct
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 total possible combinations of answers, with 8 possible combinations where the student would get 1 answer right, and 1 combination where the student would get both answers correct.

Answer:
43
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to add 22+37+49+15+92 to get 215. To find the mean, you need to divide by how much numbers there are (5). So 215 divided by 5 is 43!
Answer:
(a)
and
are indeed mutually-exclusive.
(b)
, whereas
.
(c)
.
(d)
, whereas 
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>(a)</h3>
means that it is impossible for events
and
to happen at the same time. Therefore, event
and
are mutually-exclusive.
<h3>(b)</h3>
By the definition of conditional probability:
.
Rearrange to obtain:
.
Similarly:
.
<h3>(c)</h3>
Note that:
.
In other words,
and
are collectively-exhaustive. Since
and
are collectively-exhaustive and mutually-exclusive at the same time:
.
<h3>(d)</h3>
By Bayes' Theorem:
.
Similarly:
.
Answer:
- rational
- irrational
- irrational
- irrational
- √7, it is irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
A <em>rational</em> number is one that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers. All fractions that have integer numerators and (non-zero) denominators are <em>rational</em> numbers. Any finite decimal number, or any repeating decimal number, is a rational number. These can always be expressed as the ratio of two integers. For example, 0.4040... = 40/99, and 0.286 = 286/1000.
To make an irrational sum, at least one of the contributors must be irrational. You want an irrational 2-number sum that has 7/8 as one of the contributors. Since 7/8 is rational, the other contributor must be irrational.
__
<u>Step 1</u>. The number 7/8 is <em>rational</em>.
<u>Step 2</u>. The desired sum is <em>irrational</em>.
<u>Step 3</u>. The rule <em>rational + </em><em>irrational</em><em> = irrational</em> applies.
<u>Step 4</u>. An <em>irrational</em> number must be chosen.
Step 5. √7 will produce an irrational sum, because <em>it is irrational</em>.
