Answer:

  • 7 people
  • 53 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells us ...

  8x = y +3

  7x = y -4

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  x = 7

Then ...

  y = 7x +4 = 7·7 +4 = 53

There are 7 people, and 53 coins are required for purchase.

Events A and B have probabilities such that P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.25, P(M ∪ N) = 0.425, and P(M ∩ N) = 0.075. Are events A and ev

Answer:

(C)Yes, because P(M) ∙ P(N) = P(M ∩ N)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are independent if P(A)P(B)=P(A ∩ B)

Given events A and B such that:

P(A) = 0.3, P(B) = 0.25, P(A ∪ B) = 0.425, and P(A ∩ B) = 0.075

  • P(A)P(B)=0.3 X 0.25 =0.075
  • P(A ∩ B) = 0.075

Since the two expression above gives the same answer, they are independent.

<u>The correct option is C.</u>

Please Help- <br> K + ⅓ = 5 ⅛ | K = ?<br> Show Your Reasoning.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

4\frac{19}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope I did this right:

So first thing to do is set up the equation.

K + \frac{1}{3} = 5\frac{1}{8}

Next thing to to is subtract 1/3 from both sides to get:

K = 5\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{3}

Next up, you will multiply each of the fractions by the opposing value

(multiply 1/8 by 3 and 1/3 by 8)

K = 5\frac{3}{24}-\frac{8}{24}

Alright almost done, by multiplying 24 by 5 you get 120, that will go in the numerator to make the math a lot easier.

K = \frac{123}{24}-\frac{8}{24}

Finally, you subtract 123 over 24 by 8 over 24.

K = \frac{123}{24} - \frac{8}{24} = \frac{115}{24}

Then just simplfy the 115/24 to get

4\frac{19}{24}
