Less than is this sign > and then greater than is < and then equal to is this sign = and then not equal is the equal sign with a line through it

The sign used for "at least" is "greater than or equal to".

It looks like this : $\ge$

Here is an example :

$x\quad \in \quad N\quad (x\quad is\quad a\quad Natural\quad number)\\ \\ x\quad is\quad at\quad least\quad 9$

Can be shown like this : $x\ge 9$ .

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

a) The probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course = P(H n P) = 0.57

b) The probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor will pass the course = P(H' n P') = 0.12

c) The two events, pass the course and do homework regularly, aren't mutually exclusive. Check Explanation for reasons why.

d) The two events, pass the course and do homework regularly, aren't independent. Check Explanation for reasons why.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that a student does homework regularly be H.

The event that a student passes the course be P.

- 60% of her students do homework regularly

P(H) = 60% = 0.60

- 95% of the students who do their homework regularly generally pass the course

P(P|H) = 95% = 0.95

- She also knows that 85% of her students pass the course.

P(P) = 85% = 0.85

a) The probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course = P(H n P)

The conditional probability of A occurring given that B has occurred, P(A|B), is given as

P(A|B) = P(A n B) ÷ P(B)

And we can write that

P(A n B) = P(A|B) × P(B)

Hence,

P(H n P) = P(P n H) = P(P|H) × P(H) = 0.95 × 0.60 = 0.57

b) The probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor will pass the course = P(H' n P')

From Sets Theory,

P(H n P') + P(H' n P) + P(H n P) + P(H' n P') = 1

P(H n P) = 0.57 (from (a))

Note also that

P(H) = P(H n P') + P(H n P) (since the events P and P' are mutually exclusive)

0.60 = P(H n P') + 0.57

P(H n P') = 0.60 - 0.57

Also

P(P) = P(H' n P) + P(H n P) (since the events H and H' are mutually exclusive)

0.85 = P(H' n P) + 0.57

P(H' n P) = 0.85 - 0.57 = 0.28

So,

P(H n P') + P(H' n P) + P(H n P) + P(H' n P') = 1

Becomes

0.03 + 0.28 + 0.57 + P(H' n P') = 1

P(H' n P') = 1 - 0.03 - 0.57 - 0.28 = 0.12

c) Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" mutually exclusive? Explain.

Two events are said to be mutually exclusive if the two events cannot take place at the same time. The mathematical statement used to confirm the mutual exclusivity of two events A and B is that if A and B are mutually exclusive,

P(A n B) = 0.

But, P(H n P) has been calculated to be 0.57, P(H n P) = 0.57 ≠ 0.

Hence, the two events aren't mutually exclusive.

d. Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" independent? Explain

Two events are said to be independent of the probabilty of one occurring dowant depend on the probability of the other one occurring. It sis proven mathematically that two events A and B are independent when

P(A|B) = P(A)

P(B|A) = P(B)

P(A n B) = P(A) × P(B)

To check if the events pass the course and do homework regularly are mutually exclusive now.

P(P|H) = 0.95

P(P) = 0.85

P(H|P) = P(P n H) ÷ P(P) = 0.57 ÷ 0.85 = 0.671

P(H) = 0.60

P(H n P) = P(P n H)

P(P|H) = 0.95 ≠ 0.85 = P(P)

P(H|P) = 0.671 ≠ 0.60 = P(H)

P(P)×P(H) = 0.85 × 0.60 = 0.51 ≠ 0.57 = P(P n H)

None of the conditions is satisfied, hence, we can conclude that the two events are not independent.

Hope this Helps!!!

A bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles. If three marbles are pulled out find each of the pr

worty [1.4K]

Answer: The probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles.

Let S be the sample space for the experiment of pulling a marble.

Then, n(S) = 12 + 8 + 5 = 25.

Let, E, F and G represents the events of pulling a red marble, a blue marble and a green marble respectively.

The, n(E) = 12, n(F) = 8 and n(G) = 5.

Therefore, the probabilities of each of these three events E, F and G will be

$P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{12}{25}=\dfrac{12}{25}\times100\%=48\%,\\\\\\P(F)=\dfrac{n(F)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{8}{25}=\dfrac{8}{25}\times100\%=32\%,\\\\\\P(G)=\dfrac{n(G)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{5}{25}\times100\%=20\%.$

Now, the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is given by

$P(G)\times P(G)\times P(G)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{1}{125}\times100\%=0.8\%.$

Thus, the probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.
