Answer:

a)  The probability that a student has either a Visa card or a MasterCard is 0.71.  

b) V and M are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability that a student has a Visa card (event V) is 0.63. The probability that a student has a MasterCard (event M) is 0.11. The probability that a student has both cards is 0.03.

To find :

a) The probability that a student has either a Visa card or a MasterCard ?

b)  In this problem, are V and M independent ?

Solution :

The probability that a student has a visa card(event V) is P(V)= 0.63

The probability that a student has a MasterCard (event M) is P(M)= 0.11

The probability that a student has both cards  is P(V \cap M)=0.03

a) Probability that a student has either a Visa card or a Master Card is given by,

P(V \cup M) = P(V) + P(M) - P(V\cap M)

P(V \cup M) = 0.63+ 0.11- 0.03

P(V \cup M) =0.74- 0.03

P(V \cup M) =0.71

The probability that a student has either a Visa card or a MasterCard is 0.71.

b) Two events, A and B, are independent if P(A\cap B)=P(A)P(B)

For V and M to be independent the condition is satisfied,

P(V\cap M)=P(V)P(M)

Substitute the values,

0.03=0.63\times 0.11

0.03\neq 0.0693

So, V and M are not independent.

NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!<br><br> 2. Solve for x<br> 3. Solve for x
Anton [14]

Answer:

2. x = 47

3. x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

These problems involve proportions, or equivalent ratios.  You can solve for 'x' in each by using cross-multiplication and division.

2.  28(7) = 4(x + 2)

Distribute = 196 = 4x + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides: 196 - 8 = 4x + 8 - 8 or 188 = 4x

Solve for x:  x = 47

3.  2(2x + 7) = 11(3x - 4)

Distribute: 4x + 14 = 33x - 44

Add 44 to both sides: 4x + 14 + 44 = 33x - 44 + 44 or 4x + 58 = 33x

Subtract 4x from both sides: 4x + 58 - 4x = 33x - 4x or 58 = 29x

Solve for x: x = 2
