Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

P(A)=0.4 and P(B)=0.7

We know that

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

We know that

Maximum value of P(A\cup B)=1 and minimum value of P(A\cup B)=0

0\leq P(A\cup B )\leq 1

0\leq P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\leq 1

0\leq 0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\leq 1

0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1

0\leq 1.1-P(A\cap B)

P(A\cap B)\leq 1.1

It is not possible that P(A\cap B) is equal to 1.1

1.1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1

-P(A\cap B)\leq 1-1.1=-0.1

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

P(A\cap B)\geq 0.1

Again, P(A\cup B)\geq P(B)

0.4+0.7-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7

1.1-P(A\cap B)\geq 0.7

-P(A\cap B)\geq -1.1+0.7=-0.4

Multiply by (-1) on both sides

P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4

Hence, 0.1\leq P(A\cap B)\leq 0.4

A) 3000 * 0.5 = 1500 minutes, or 25 hours.
b) 10,000 * 0.5 = 5000 minutes, or 83 hours and 20 minutes
c) she works 2 hours a weekday. 2 hours = 120 minutes. It takes her 83 hours and 20 minutes to finish a 10,000 piece puzzle. It will take her 42 weekdays to finish this. Jan 15, 2020 is a Wednesday. She will finish it on March 12, 2020.

Calculus 2: I need help with u substitution and intergration by parts. Can someone help me understand the concept?​
snow_lady [41]

Computing an integral by substitution is the reverse of the chain rule for computing the derivative. Substitution is intended to rewrite a complicated-looking integral involving the derivative of some component expression as another much simpler integral. For example, if u=f(x), then \mathrm du=f'(x)\,\mathrm dx and

\displaystyle\int f(x)f'(x)\,\mathrm dx=\int u\,\mathrm du

###

Integration by parts is the reverse of the product rule for derivatives:

(f(x)g(x))'=f'(x)g(x)+f(x)g'(x)\implies f(x)g'(x)=(f(x)g(x))'-f'(x)g(x)

Integrating both sides with respect to x gives

\displaystyle\int f(x)g'(x)\,\mathrm dx=\int(f(x)g(x))'\,\mathrm dx-\int f'(x)g(x)\,\mathrm dx

\displaystyle\int f(x)g'(x)\,\mathrm dx=f(x)g(x)-\int f'(x)g(x)\,\mathrm dx

###

Personally, I think the best way to grasp the idea behind the two methods is to practice. You start to notice patterns to the point where knowing which is the "right" method to use becomes second nature.
