Answer:

They are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following events:

* 16% of students play basketball

* 70% of students live in Murfreesboro

They ask us if each of the events are independent of the other, the answer is yes. Since the probability in the first event would be 16/100 and the second event 70/100, and at no time are they affected by each other.

They mention another event that that depends on these two:

* 11% of students play basketball and live in Murfreesboro

(16/100) * (70/100) = 0.112, which is equal to 11.2%, which is approximate to the event they mention.

Must m in the equation y=mx+b always be a positive number?
Effectus [21]

If the slope of the number is positive (the graph goes upward from left to right), then m will be positive, but if the slope is negative (the graph goes downward from left to right), then m is negative. So, no. M does not have to be a positive number, it may also be negative.

Simplify this algebraic expression completely.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

2 (3 y - 4) <- Complete answer, but since you only have those choices it's

6 y - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

8 y - 2 (y + 4)

Hint: | Distribute -2 over y + 4.

-2 (y + 4) = -2 y - 8:

8 y + -2 y - 8

Hint: | Group like terms in 8 y - 2 y - 8.

Grouping like terms, 8 y - 2 y - 8 = (8 y - 2 y) - 8:

(8 y - 2 y) - 8

Hint: | Combine like terms in 8 y - 2 y.

8 y - 2 y = 6 y:

6 y - 8

Hint: | Factor out the greatest common divisor of the coefficients of 6 y - 8.

Factor 2 out of 6 y - 8:

Answer: 2 (3 y - 4)
