Answer:

P(A) = 1/6

P(B) = 5/36

P(A and B) = 1/36

P(B | A) = 1/6

P(B) is different of P(B | A). As they are different, we have that A and B are DEPENDENT events.

Step-by-step explanation:

As one die has six numbers, the probability of the first die being a 3 is 1/6, because there is one number 3 in the six numbers of the dice:

P(A) = 1/6

The dice can have a sum of 8 in the following pair of values:

(2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3), (6,2)

So there are 5 possibilities among the total 36, so P(B) = 5/36

The probability of the first die being 3 and the sum being 8 only happens in one pair of values:

(3,5)

So the probability P(A and B) is 1/36

The probability of the sum being 8 given that the first number is 3 is the probability of having a 5 in the second die, so it is one possibility among 6:

P(B | A) = 1/6

P(B) = 5/36 and P(B | A) = 1/6, so we have that P(B) is different of P(B | A). As they are different, we have that A and B are DEPENDENT events.

Komok [63]

Answer:

The answer would be HFG = KIJ (A)

If we know that the opposite and the adjacent side of the triangle are congruent, then the hypotenuse is congruent too. Therefor, A is correct as we know the opposite side and the adjacent side are congruent.

The answers is A x=4.5y because for whatever y is you multiply it by 4.5 and it gives you your x. Trust me. They all match too; I checked.
