Every​ morning, my neighbor goes out walking. I observe that​ 20% of the time she walks with her​ beagle, 70% of the time she wa

lks with her golden​ retriever, and​ 30% of the time she walks alone. If these events are all​ disjoint, is this an example of a valid probability​ distribution?

Answer:

No, This is not a valid Probability Distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability [Neighbour walks with Beagle] = 20%

Probability [Neighbour walks with Golden Retriever] = 70%

Probability [Neighbour walks alone] = 30%

Disjoint Events are the events that have zero probability of occurring together. If all the three above items are disjoint, it means that it can never happen that two of them happen together.

The total (summed) probability of a valid probability distribution, with disjoint sets = 1 . In given case, total probability = 0.2 + 0.7 + 0.3 = 1.2 ; i.e > 1.

So, this probability distribution with stated disjoint events is not a Valid Probability distribution.

Line segment AB is dilated to create line segment A'B' using point Q as the center of dilation.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the scale of dilation, you have to compare the ratio of the after transform with before transform according to the center of dilation. In this case, the center of dilation is Q so you have to compare QA' : QA. We know that QA= 1.25 and AA' is 1.25. The distance of QA' will be:

QA'= QA + AA'= 1.25 + 1.25 = 2.5

The scale factor will be:

scale factor= QA' : QA.= 2.5 : 1.25

scale factor= 2

Math workshops and final exams: The college tutoring center staff are considering whether the center should increase the number
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

2. Number of workshops attended.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable of interest for predicting the final exam score and doing regression analysis is workshop attendance.  Therefore, the response variable should be the number of workshops attended by each student.

This also agrees with what the college tutoring center staff are considering, which forms the research question: "should the center increase the number of math workshops they offer to help students improve their performance in math classes?"
