A and b are positive integers and a−b=2. Evaluate the following: 3^b/3^a

Mathematics

Answer:

The answer is 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation a-b=2, we can solve that a = 2+b.

We can then <u>substitute that into the expression</u> given to get 3^b/3^(2+b).

Since <u>they have the same base, we can subtract the exponents from the numerator and denominator</u> to get 3^(b-2-b) which <em>simplifies to 3^-2.</em>

3^-2 is simply 1/9.

Answer:

using laws of exponents....

m^a/m^b = m^a-b

therefore,

3^b/3^a = 3^b-a

             => 3^-2\

             => 1/3^2

             => 1/9

If a die is rolled one time, find probability of getting a number greater than 3 and an odd number.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

\dfrac{1}{6}.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a die is rolled one time. So,

Sample space : S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}

Number is greater than 3 : A=\{4,5,6\}

Number is odd : A=\{1,3,5\}

Number greater than 3 and an odd number : A\cap B=\{5\}

It is conclude that,

n(S)=6, n(A)=3,n(B)=3,n(A\cap B)=1

The probability of getting a number greater than 3 and an odd number is

P=\dfrac{n(A\cap B)}{n(S)}

P=\dfrac{1}{6}

Therefore, the required probability is \dfrac{1}{6}.
