Although the rules of probability are just basic facts about percents or proportions, we need to be able to use the language of

events and their probabilities. Choose an American adult aged 20 years and over at random. Define two events:
A = the person chosen is obese
B = the person chosen is overweight, but not obese

According to a statistical journal,

P(A) = 0.41and P(B) = 0.33.

Explain why events A and B are disjoint.

(A) Because event B rules out obese subjects.
(B) Because an obese person is certainly overweight.
(C) Because some people may be considered obese and overweight.
(D) Because some people are not obese nor overweight.

Answer:

(A) Because event B rules out obese subjects.

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) is correct because B doesn't have obese people

(B) is incorrect because we don't know if there are obese person but not overweight.

(C) states a correct fact but that portion doesn't relate to event B (overweight but not obese)

Similarly, (D) also states a correct fact but doesn't relate to event B (overweight but not obese)

1. Mark bought 5 shirts for 32.35.What was the cost of each stint in dollars and
VikaD [51]

Answer:

  $6.47 for each shirt

Step-by-step explanation:

If s is the cost of a shirt, then the cost of 5 shirts is ...

  5s = $32.35

  s = $32.35/5 = $6.47 . . . . . divide both sides of the equation by 5

The cost of each shirt was $6.47.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The equation formalizes the math for you, perhaps helping you see that division by 5 is required.

To find cost per shirt, divide cost by shirts. "Per" can often be thought of as meaning "divided by."

Let f(x) be an exponential functionWhich transformations to the graph of f(x) would describe e - f(x - 3) ?
gayaneshka [121]

Look at the graph below carefully

Observe the results of shifting ={2}^{x}f(x)=2​x

​​  vertically:

The domain, (−∞,∞) remains unchanged.

When the function is shifted up 3 units to ={2}^{x}+3g(x)=2​x +3:

The y-intercept shifts up 3 units to (0,4).

The asymptote shifts up 3 units to y=3y=3.

The range becomes (3,∞).

When the function is shifted down 3 units to ={2}^{x}-3h(x)=2 ​x​​ −3:

The y-intercept shifts down 3 units to (0,−2).

The asymptote also shifts down 3 units to y=-3y=−3.

The range becomes (−3,∞).
