Answer:

(E) I, II and III

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

[email protected] = a + b - ab ∀ a, b ∈ Z ( set of all integers ),

For solving this question we need to remember the following properties of integers:

  • Commutative property of addition
  • Additive identity property of addition
  • Commutative property of multiplication
  • Distributive property of multiplication over addition

I. [email protected] = a + b - ab,

[email protected] = b + a - ba = a + b - ab

Thus, [email protected] = [email protected]

II. [email protected] = a + 0 - a × 0

= a + 0 - 0  

= a

III. ([email protected])@c = ([email protected])+c - ([email protected])c

= (a + b - ab) + c - (a + b - ab)c

= a + b - ab + c - ac - bc + abc

= a + b + c - ab - bc - ac + abc,

Now, [email protected]([email protected]) = [email protected]( b + c - bc )

= a + (b + c - bc) - a(b+c - bc)

= a + b + c - bc - ab - ac + abc

= a + b + c - ab - bc - ac + abc.

Thus, ([email protected])@c = [email protected]([email protected])

Direct variation has this equation:

y = kx

where k is the constant of variation

y = -5 ; x = -15

y = kx
-5 = k(-15)
-5/-15 = k
1/3 = k

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

65.54% (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • \sf \mu=9000
  • \sf \sigma=1000

\sf X \sim N(\mu, \sigma^2)\implies X \sim N(9000,1000^2)

P(X > 8600) = 1 - P(X ≤ 8600)

                    = 1 - 0.3445782584

                    = 0.6554217416

                    = 65.54%
