Answer:

B^c and A^c are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

The proof:

We assume that A and B are independent.

By definition, the occurrence of A doesn't affect the probability of B.

Thus, the occurrence of A also doesn't affect the probability of B^c

So by definition, A and B^c are also independent, which by definition again means that the occurrence of B^c doesn't affect the probability of A.

(Here we used the symmetry of independence.)

Therefore, the occurrence of B^c also doesn't affect the probability of A^c.

So by definition, B^cand A^c are also independent.

One could convert the proof to the language of math:

A and B are independent↓P(B|A)=P(B)↓1−P(B^c|A)=1−P(B^c)↓P(B^c|A)=P(B^c)↓A and B^c are independent↓P(A|B^c)=P(A)↓1−P(A^c|B^c)=1−P(A^c)↓P(A^c|B^c)=P(A^c)↓B^c and A^c are independent But now we used conditional probabilities, which might be a problem in case P(A)=0 or P(B^c)=0

OR

Since,

P(A') = 1-P(A)

P(B') = 1- P(B)

Now clearly P(A′)P(B′)=1−[P(A)+P(B)]+P(A∩B)

From set algebra we know that P(A)+P(B)=P(A∪B)+P(A∩B) Substituting, we have P(A′)P(B′)=P([A∪B]′)

Now from De morgans law we know that:

[A∪B]′=[A′∩B′]

Substituting, we have P(A′)P(B′)=P(A′∩B′) , as required.

Find the value of x, circles and angles
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

When two secants intersect in the interior of a circle, the angles formed are the average of the arc an angle and its vertical intercept. In this case, our angle, 73, should be the average of x and 96. We can translate this to an equation and solve:

\frac{x+96}{2} = 73

x + 96 = 146

x = 50

ſ x - 5y = -9( 4x + 4y = - 12Step 1 of 2: Determine if the point (-4,1) lies on both of the lines in the system of equations by
Phoenix [80]

Given:

\begin{gathered} x-5y=-9\ldots\ldots(1) \\ 4x+4y=-12\ldots\text{.}\mathrm{}(2) \end{gathered}

The given point is (-4,1)

Let's check the ordered pair (-4,1) in the first equation

\begin{gathered} x-5y=-9 \\ (-4)-5(1)=-9 \\ -4-5=-9 \\ -9=-9 \end{gathered}

Hence, (-4,1) is a solution of the first equation x-5y=-9.

Now, let's check (-4,1) in the second equation.

\begin{gathered} 4x+4y=-12 \\ 4(-4)+4(1)=-12 \\ -16+4=-12 \\ -12=-12 \end{gathered}

So, (-4,1) is a solution of the second equation 4x+4y=-12.

Hence, (-4,1) is a solution of both equation in the system, then it is a solution to the overall system.
