(A) For x representing the cost of one of Tanya's items, her total purchase cost 5x. The cost of one of Tony's items is then (x-1.75) and the total of Tony's purchase is 6(x-1.75). The problem statement tells us these are equal values. Your equation is ...
... 5x = 6(x -1.75)
(B) Subtract 5x, simplify and add the opposite of the constant.
... 5x -5x = 6x -6·1.75 -5x
... 0 = x -10.50
... 10.50 = x
(C) 5x = 5·10.50 = 52.50
... 6(x -1.75) = 6·8.75 = 52.50 . . . . . the two purchases are the same value
(D) The individual cost of Tanya's iterms was $10.50. The individual cost of Tony's items was $8.75.

Step-by-step explanation:
keeping track of family relations can be difficult. If Edna marries your mother’s uncle Charlie, what should you call her? If your father’s cousin’s daughter just had a baby boy, how should you two be introduced? Who is your “great great aunt”, and how can you find your “first cousin twice removed”? Fortunately, a bit of mathematical logic can clarify who should be called what, and why – and even measure the degree of genetic similarity between different relatives.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Given the probabilities:
P(A₁)= 0.35
P(A₂)= 0.50
P(A₁∩A₂)= 0
P(BIA₁)= 0.20
P(BIA₂)= 0.05
a)
Two events are mutually exclusive when the occurrence of one of them prevents the occurrence of the other in one repetition of the trial, this means that both events cannot occur at the same time and therefore they'll intersection is void (and its probability zero)
Considering that P(A₁∩A₂)= 0, we can assume that both events are mutually exclusive.
b)
Considering that
you can clear the intersection from the formula
and apply it for the given events:


c)
The probability of "B" is marginal, to calculate it you have to add all intersections where it occurs:
P(B)= (A₁∩B) + P(A₂∩B)= 0.07 + 0.025= 0.095
d)
The Bayes' theorem states that:

Then:
