A company that makes cartons finds that the probability of producing a carton with a puncture is 0.03​, the probability that a c

arton has a smashed corner is 0.08​, and the probability that a carton has a puncture and has a smashed corner is 0.002. Answer parts​ (a) and​ (b) below. ​(a) Are the events​ "selecting a carton with a​ puncture" and​ "selecting a carton with a smashed​ corner" mutually​ exclusive? Explain. A. ​No, a carton cannot have a puncture and a smashed corner. B. ​No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner. Your answer is correct.C. ​Yes, a carton cannot have a puncture and a smashed corner. D. ​Yes, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner. ​(b) If a quality inspector randomly selects a​ carton, find the probability that the carton has a puncture or has a smashed corner. The probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is nothing.

Answer:

(a) Having a smashed corner need to now not depend on whether or not the carton had a puncture or not,

so these occasions have to be independent.

One manner to check it the usage of the given probabilities:

If P(A)P(B) = P(A and B), then the events are independent.

Here we have : (0.05)(0.08) which is 0.004, that is P(A and B), so the events are  independent.

(b) P(A or B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B) = 0.05 + 0.08 – 0.004 = 0.126

All numbers streets runs parallel to each other both 3rd and 4 the streets are intersected by king Ave
erastova [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

King avenue becomes the base

He turns left into the side meet right angle side.

Therefore the hypotenuse cuts through the houses and becomes a measure

Hypotenuse +  King Ave B = 3rd Street A

Hypotenuse + 7000mB = 3rd St 5000m A.

H^2= 7m^2B - 5m^2A

√H74 =  √25A +√B49

H = √H74 = 8600m

<span>A1 is the 1st term  r is the difference, they can say "r" or "d" for the difference   1st a1 is the first term = -3 2nd "r" is the difference between each consecutive terms (coming after each other) = 1.5 the rule to get any term of the sequence as we add 1.5 each time is --> a1+(n-1)*d  a1 --> 1st term , n --> order of the term u want whether 2nd, 3rd , 25th  d --> difference  so to get the 2nd-->    -3+(2-1)*1.5= -1.5 to get the 3rd -->        -3 +(3-1)*1.5 = 0  and so on</span>

Each side of a hexagon is 10 inches longer than the previous side. what is the length of the shortest side of this hexagon if it
MrRa [10]

The length of the shortest side of the hexagon is; 41.833 inches

<h3>How to find the perimeter of a Polygon?</h3>

Let the length of the shortest side of the hexagon be x. Now, a hexagon has six sides and if the next side is 10 inches longer than the previous side, then the length of the six sides are;

x, x + 10, x + 20, x + 30, x + 40, x + 50

Perimeter is given as 401 inches. Thus;

x + x + 10 + x + 20 + x + 30 + x + 40 + x + 50 = 401

6x + 150 = 401

6x = 401 - 150

6x = 251

x = 251/6

x = 41.833 inches
