Answer:

<h3>For two events A and B show that P (A∩B) ≥ P (A)+P (B)−1.</h3>

By De morgan's law

(A\cap B)^{c}=A^{c}\cup B^{c}\\\\P((A\cap B)^{c})=P(A^{c}\cup B^{c})\leq P(A^{c})+P(B^{c}) \\\\1-P(A\cap B)\leq  P(A^{c})+P(B^{c}) \\\\1-P(A\cap B)\leq  1-P(A)+1-P(B)\\\\-P(A\cap B)\leq  1-P(A)-P(B)\\\\P(A\cap B)\geq P(A)+P(B)-1

which is Bonferroni’s inequality

<h3>Result 1: P (Ac) = 1 − P(A)</h3>

Proof

If S is universal set then

A\cup A^{c}=S\\\\P(A\cup A^{c})=P(S)\\\\P(A)+P(A^{c})=1\\\\P(A^{c})=1-P(A)

<h3>Result 2 : For any two events A and B, P (A∪B) = P (A)+P (B)−P (A∩B) and P(A) ≥ P(B)</h3>

Proof:

If S is a universal set then:

A\cup(B\cap A^{c})=(A\cup B) \cap (A\cup A^{c})\\=(A\cup B) \cap S\\A\cup(B\cap A^{c})=(A\cup B)

Which show A∪B can be expressed as union of two disjoint sets.

If A and (B∩Ac) are two disjoint sets then

P(A\cup B) =P(A) + P(B\cap A^{c})---(1)\\

B can be  expressed as:

B=B\cap(A\cup A^{c})\\

If B is intersection of two disjoint sets then

P(B)=P(B\cap(A)+P(B\cup A^{c})\\P(B\cup A^{c}=P(B)-P(B\cap A)

Then (1) becomes

P(A\cup B) =P(A) +P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\

<h3>Result 3: For any two events A and B, P(A) = P(A ∩ B) + P (A ∩ Bc)</h3>

Proof:

If A and B are two disjoint sets then

A=A\cap(B\cup B^{c})\\A=(A\cap B) \cup (A\cap B^{c})\\P(A)=P(A\cap B) + P(A\cap B^{c})\\

<h3>Result 4: If B ⊂ A, then A∩B = B. Therefore P (A)−P (B) = P (A ∩ Bc) </h3>

Proof:

If B is subset of A then all elements of B lie in A so A ∩ B =B

A =(A \cap B)\cup (A\cap B^{c}) = B \cup ( A\cap B^{c})

where A and A ∩ Bc  are disjoint.

P(A)=P(B\cup ( A\cap B^{c}))\\\\P(A)=P(B)+P( A\cap B^{c})

From axiom P(E)≥0

P( A\cap B^{c})\geq 0\\\\P(A)-P(B)=P( A\cap B^{c})\\P(A)=P(B)+P(A\cap B^{c})\geq P(B)

Therefore,

P(A)≥P(B)

if you prder two servings of pancakes and fruit cup the cost of the fruit cup is $1.50 and you leave a 15% tip your total bill i
Sindrei [870]

Both servings of pancakes cost $8.50

One serving of pancakes cost $4.35

Equation:   1.15 (2x + 1.50) = 11.50

                  2.3x + 1.725 + 11.50

                   2.3x = 9.725

                   x = 4.25 for one serving of pancakes

                   2x = 8.50 for both servings of pancakes

Which of the following will result in a rational number? Select all that apply.
romanna [79]

An expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations

<h3>What is an Expression?</h3>

In mathematics, an expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations formed according to rules dependent on the context.

The given expression can be simplified as,

A.) 7 3/4 - (√11)/5 = (155-4√11)/20

B.) 7 3/4 ÷ (√11)/5 = 155/(4√11)

C) 7 3/4 + (√16)/5 = 166/20

D.) 7 3/4 + (√16)/5 = 31/5

The option that will result in a rational number is C and D.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

inconsistent

Step-by-step explanation:

The two lines are parallel which means they will never intersect.  This means they have no solution.  When there is no solution they are inconsistent.


Coincident-  same line - infinite solutions

Inconsistent - parallel lines - no solutions

Consistent and independent  - 1 solutions
