Since there are 5 pens total, and three of those pens are blue, the probability for both pens being blue is 3/5.
(just like if the black pens were being chose the probability would be 2/5, since there are 5 pens total and 2 black pens.)<span />

Let A = {a, b, c, d, e} and B = {a, c, f, g, i}. Universal Set: ∪= {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i}
mixer [17]

Answer:

1. { a, b, c, d, e, h }

2. { f, g, i }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sets,

A = {a, b, c, d, e},

B = {a, c, f, g, i}

Universal set , ∪ = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i},

1. Since, B^c = elements of universal set which are not in set B

=  U - B

= { b, d, e, h },

Thus,

A\cup B^c = All elements of A and B^c

= { a, b, c, d, e, h }

2. B - A = elements of set B which are not in set A

= { f, g, i }

Mike buys a large goldfish for $22 and food for his new friend
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Mike started off the day with $27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given to us, we can set up an equation. Knowing that Mike ended the day with $7, and the amount of money that he spent and received can help us set up an equation. The amount of money that he started the day off with, is unknown, and recognized as x.  7=x-22-3+5

To solve this, we can simply solve the numbers that we know on the right hand side, to get this:

7=x-20

Now, to get our final answer we must isolate x. We can do this by simply adding 20 to both sides. This cancels out the -20 on the right, and makes the 7 on the left become 27.

27=x

Therefore, Mike started the day off with $27.
