If A and B are independent events and P(A) and P(B) are both greater than 1/2

Mathematics

Answer:

P(A and B) is greater than 1 is never happened ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events are independent if the result of the second event is not  affected by the result of the first event

If A and B are independent events, the probability of both events  is the product of the probabilities of the both events  P (A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

∵ The probability of any event is less than 1

∵ P(A) < 1

∵ P(A) > \frac{1}{2}

- That means P(A) is greater than half and less than 1

∴ \frac{1}{2} < P(A) < 1

∵ P(B) < 1

∵ P(B) > \frac{1}{2}

- That means P(B) is greater than half and less than 1

∴ \frac{1}{2} < P(B) < 1

∵ P(A and B) = P(A) . P(B)

- Remember the product of any fractions less than 1 is less than 1

∴ \frac{1}{4} < P(A) . P(B) < 1

- That means any expression equals to P(A) . P(B) must be greater

   than \frac{1}{4} and less than 1

∴ \frac{1}{4} < P(A and B) < 1

∴ P(A and B) is greater than 1 is never happened

Find the measure of one interior angle for the following regular polygon
shusha [124]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that by "interior" angle you do not mean the central angle.

This is a 10-sided polygon, a decagon. That means that there are 10 triangles that can extend from the center, with their sides being equal to the radii of the decagon. If we extract one of these triangles we can find what the interior angle is. The vertex angle measures 360/10 which is 36.

Split this triangle in half from the vertex to the base, creating a right triangle. The vertex angle is also split in half, making this angle (the vertex angle is the one at the top of the triangle) 18 degrees. We already know that one angle inside this right triangle is 90 (definition of a right triangle) and to find the other one, we apply the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem:

180 - 18 - 90 = 72 degrees. That is the measure of the base angle that is NOT the right angle, obviously.

Write any equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and it's parallel to the graph of the
Orlov [11]
Paralalell means that is has the same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=-1x-2
slope=-1

the equation of a line that passes through the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is y-y1=m(x-x1)
given
(2,-2) and slope is -1
y-(-2)=-1(x-2)
y+2=-x+2
minus 2
y=-x
answer is y=-x

Area of the bigger rectangle =(18×8)cm

2

=144cm

2

Area of the smaller rectangle =((30−18)×(8−6))=(12×6)cm

2

=72cm

2

∴ Total area = area of smaller rectangle + area of bigger rectangle =(72+144)cm

2

=216cm
