Jim buys 2*15=30 apples
To get the answer we have to find 90% of 30
90% = 0.9
0.9*15=27
Now we can subtract 30-27=3 - its the answer

For the given pair of events A and B, complete parts (a) and (b) below.

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

(a) Option A. independent

(b) $P(A\ and\ B) = 0.0312$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events A and B are considered dependent if the occurrence of one affects the probability of occurrence of another.

In this case, the events are independent because the birth of a girl or a boy does not affect the probability of obtaining a 1 by throwing a 16-sided die.

In the same way, throwing a die and obtaining the number 1 does not affect the probability that a baby is a girl or a boy.

When two events are independent then

$P(A\ and\ B) = P(A)*P(B)$

The probability that a baby is a girl is

$P(A) = 0.5$

The probability of obtaining a 1 when casting a 16-sided die is:

$P(B) = \frac{1}{16}$

Then:

$P(A\ and\ B) = 0.5 * \frac{1}{16}$

$P(A\ and\ B) = 0.0312$

How do u do this in advanced math

UNO [17]

Answer is d = 50.

Step by step. These are vertical angles so the (d + 70) will equal the opposite angle of 120.

Equation is d + 70 = 120.

Solve for d. Subtract 70 from both sides of the equal sign to solve for d.

d + 70 - 70 = 120 - 70
d = 50
