Consider two events such that P(A)=3/4, P(B)=2/5 and P(AnB)=1/3. Are the events A and B independent?

posledela

If P(A) times P(B) is equal to P(A n B), then that shows the events are independent. Otherwise, they are dependent. When I write "A n B", I mean "A intersect B". The intersect symbol looks similar to the lowercase letter n.

P(A)*P(B) = (3/4)*(2/5) = (3*2)/(4*5) = 6/20 = 3/10

Since that result is not the same as P(A n B) = 1/3, this means that the events are not independent. They are dependent events. The answer is choice D

A math textbook is 1 1/4 in. thick. how much shelf space is needed for 30 copies of the book?

inysia [295]

Hello!

You have to multiply 1 1/4 by 30 because each math book is 1 1/4 in. thick, and 30 books is 1 1/4 by 30. First change 30 and 1 1/4 to an improper fraction.

$\frac{30}{1} \times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{150}{4} = 37 \frac{1}{2}$
