Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

It's hard to see but when x is 6, y is 4.5. Just plug that into each equation and see which one is correct.

$x^{2} =8y\\x=6;y=4.5\\6^{2} =8(4.5)\\36=36$

Answer:

We need to remember that we have independent events when a given event is not affected by previous events, and we can verify if two events are independnet with the following equation:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) *P(B)$

For this case we have that:

$P(A) *P(B) = 0.01*0.02= 0.0002$

And we see that $0.0002 \neq P(A \cap B)$

So then we can conclude that the two events given are not independent and have a relationship or dependence.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can define the following events:

A= In a certain computer a memory failure

B= In a certain computer a hard disk failure

We have the probability for the two events given on this case:

$P(A) = 0.01 , P(B) = 0.02$

We also know the probability that the memory and the hard drive fail simultaneously given by:

$P(A \cap B) = 0.0014$

And we want to check if the two events are independent.

We need to remember that we have independent events when a given event is not affected by previous events, and we can verify if two events are independnet with the following equation:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) *P(B)$

For this case we have that:

$P(A) *P(B) = 0.01*0.02= 0.0002$

And we see that $0.0002 \neq P(A \cap B)$

So then we can conclude that the two events given are not independent and have a relationship or dependence.

Answer:

The probability of the stick's weight being 2.33 oz or greater is 0.0041 or 0.41%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of a given sample (x) = 2.33 oz

Mean weight (μ) = 1.75 oz

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.22 oz

The distribution is normal distribution.

So, first, we will find the z-score of the distribution using the formula:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Plug in the values and solve for 'z'. This gives,

$z=\frac{2.33-1.75}{0.22}=2.64$

So, the z-score of the distribution is 2.64.

Now, we need the probability $P(x\geq 2.33 )=P(z\geq 2.64)$ .

From the normal distribution table for z-score equal to 2.64, the value of the probability is 0.9959. This is the area to the left of the curve or less than z-score value.

But, we need area more than the z-score value. So, the area is:

$P(z\geq 2.64)=1-0.9959=0.0041=0.41\%$

Therefore, the probability of the stick's weight being 2.33 oz or greater is 0.0041 or 0.41%.
