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

adam wants to compare the fractions 3/12,1/6, and 1/3.he wants to order them from least to greatest and rewrite them so they all
Digiron [165]
3/12 ; 1/6 ; 1/3

Adam must first get the least common multiple of each denominator.

12 : 12, 24, 36
  6 :  6, 12, 18
  3 :  3, 6, 9, 12

12 is the least common denominator. 

We, then, multiply each denominator by a number that will produce 12.

12 x 1 = 12
6 x 2 = 12
3 x 4 = 12

Each number multiplied to the denominator must be the number used to multiply each numerator.

3/12 * 1/1 = 3/12
1/6 * 2/2 =   2/12
1/3 * 4/4 =   4/12

Since they now share a common denominator, the numerator will become the basis of the fraction's value. The greater the numerator, the greater the fraction's value.

Fractions in order from least to greatest = 2/12 ; 3/12 ; 4/12

Substitute each fraction with its original fraction:
2/12 ⇒ 1/6   : least

3/12 ⇒ 3/12 : middle
4/12 ⇒ 1/3   : greatest
