Exams are approaching and Helen is allocating time to studying for exams. She feels that with the appropriate amount of studying

, she has an 80% chance of getting an A in Marketing. She also feels that she has a 60% chance of getting an A in Spanish with the appropriate amount of studying. Given the demands on her time, she feels that she has only a 45% chance of getting an A in both classes. What is the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class?

Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Event of getting an A in Marketing class.

S = Event of getting an A in Spanish class,

i.e. P(M) = 0.80 , P(S) = 0.60 and P(M∩S)=0.45

Required probability = P(neither M nor S)

= P(M'∩S')

= P(M∪S)'                                 [∵P(A'∩B')=P(A∪B)']

=1- P(M∪S)                               [∵P(A')=1-P(A)]

= 1- (P(M)+P(S)- P(M∩S))   [∵P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)]

= 1- (0.80+0.60-0.45)

= 1- 0.95

= 0.05

hence, the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class= 0.05

Which is an asymptote of the graph of the function y = cot ( x - 2pi / 3 )
vesna_86 [32]
\bf y=cot\left(x-\frac{2\pi }{3}  \right)\implies y=\cfrac{cos\left(x-\frac{2\pi }{3}  \right)}{sin\left(x-\frac{2\pi }{3}  \right)}

now, if the denominator turns to 0, the fraction becomes undefined, and you get a "vertical asymptote" when that happens, so let's check when is that

\bf sin\left(x-\frac{2\pi }{3}  \right)=0\implies sin^{-1}\left[ sin\left(x-\frac{2\pi }{3}  \right) \right]=sin^{-1}(0)
\\\\\\
x-\frac{2\pi }{3}=
\begin{cases}
0\\
\pi 
\end{cases}\implies \measuredangle x=
\begin{cases}
\frac{2\pi }{3}\\
\frac{5\pi }{3}
\end{cases}

now, at those angles, the function is asymptotic, check the picture below
