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)

Equivalent answers for 64 to the power of 2/3
madreJ [45]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Dealing with a fraction exponent on hand can be converted by using the fractional exponents rule where the fraction exponent is converted to something like this:

64^\frac{2}{3} = \sqrt[3]{64^{2}}\\

As you can see, the denominator of the fractional exponent is now the index of the radical. Here is a guide to know what goes where.

64^\frac{x}{y} = \sqrt[y]{64^{x}}

Both the original problem (64^2/3) and the converted formula can be put into a calculator.

<u>Simplify (if you want to)</u>

<u />\sqrt[3]{64^{2}}\\\sqrt[3]{4096}\\16<u />

<u />

64 to the power of 2/3 is 16.
