Answer:

B and F

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple golden rule that we need to know here is

<em><u>"The probability of any event is always between 0 and 1 inclusive"</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

If an event has a probability of p(x), we can say:

0 \leq p(x) \leq 1

Also, probability is ALWAYS POSITIVE.

Thus,

A) OK because 33.3% is 0.333, which is between 0 and 1

B) NOT OK, because probability isn't negative

C) 0.0002 is in between 0 and 1, so possible

D) 0 probability means it can't happen, so that's okay as well

E) this is a fraction with numerator less than denominator, which means its between 0 and 1, so OK

F) this fraction's numerator is greater than denominator, so it's greater than 1. Probability can't be greater than 1, so NOT OK

Out of these B and F cannot represent the probability of an event

Which Iink between two elements could you remove from the relation so that becomes a function?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Either (3,b) or (3,e) must be removed to form the above relation to be function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relation between the elements of domain and range. we have to remove the link between two elements so that relation becomes a function.

A function is a relation in which each element in domain set maps into only one element of range set i.e one element can never have two images in range set.

Here, the element 3 in domain set maps into two element b and e in range set. Therefore, to form a function one link must be removed either

f(3)=b or f(3)=e

Hence, either (3,b) or (3,e) must be removed to form the above relation to be function.

What is 4 1/2 pint to quart?
Ivanshal [37]

There are two pints every quarter.

So let's convert pints to quarter

   \frac{4\frac{1}{2} }{2} =\frac{\frac{9}{2} }{2} = \frac{9}{4}

There 4 1/2 pint is to 9/4 quarter.

Hope that helps!
