Answer:

- Statements A, B, C and E are all true and correct for this question.

- Only Statement D is not true nor correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Katyuska wants to select a playing card at random from 6 cards.

- 9 of hearts

- 5 of spades

- 6 of hearts

- 2 of spades

- 4 of hearts

- 7 of hearts

A is the event that Katyuska selects a spade and B is the event that she chooses an odd-numbered card.

Note that the probability of an event is given as the number of elements in that event divided by the Total number of elements in the sample space.

P(A) = n(A) ÷ n(S)

So, of the six cards, there are 2 spades (5 of spades, 2 of spades) and 3 odd numbered cards (9 of hearts, 5 of spades, 7 of hearts)

Probability of event A = Probability of selecting a spade = P(A) = n(A) ÷ n(S)

n(A) = number of spades = 2

n(S) = total number of cards = 6

P(A) = (2/6) = (1/3)

Probability of event B = Probability of selecting an odd numbered card = P(B) = n(B) ÷ n(S)

n(B) = number of odd numbered cards = 3

n(S) = total number of cards = 6

P(B) = (3/6) = (1/2)

P(A n B) = Probability of selecting a spade vard that is also an odd numbered card = n(A n B)

(A n B) = 5 of spades

n(A n B) = 1

n(S) = 6

P(A n B) = (1/6)

So, checking the statements one at a time.

A) Investigate P(A|B) = P(A)

The conditional probability, P(A|B), is given mathematically as

P(A|B) = P(A n B) ÷ P(B)

P(A n B) = (1/6)

P(B) = (1/2)

P(A|B) = (1/6) ÷ (1/2) = (2/6) = (1/3) = P(A)

Hence, this statement is true!

B) Investigate P(B|A) = P(B)

P(B|A) = P(B n A) ÷ P(A)

P(B n A) = P(A n B) = (1/6)

P(A) = (1/3)

P(B|A) = (1/6) ÷ (1/3) = (3/6) = (1/2) = P(B)

This statement is also true!

C) Events A and B are independent events.

Two events are said to be independent when the probability/chances of one of them occurring does not in any way affect the probability/chances of the other one occurring.

Mathematically, the conditions for two events to be independent are

P(A|B) = P(A)

P(B|A) = P(B)

Since these two conditions have already been established, we can conclude that the two events are indeed independent of each other.

D) The outcome of events A and B are dependent on each other.

Since we just proved in (C) that the two events are independent of each other, it necessarily means that this statement is false.

The outcome of events A and B are not dependent on each other.

E) Investigate whether P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)

P(A) = (1/3)

P(B) = (1/2)

P(A) × P(B) = (1/3) × (1/2) = (1/6) = P(A and B)

This statement is true too.

Hope this Helps!!!

crimeas [40]

Answer:

You need to cross multiply 37/45+x/100 which equals 17%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part represents the 37 dollars out of the original 45 and the second part represents x= the unknown percent out of 100 percent. This would be 17%

If c(x)=5/x-2 and d(x)=x+3, what is the domain of (cd)(x)?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The domain is all Real x except x = 2 .

Step-by-step explanation:

(cd)(x) = ( 5 / x-2) * x+3

=  5(x+3)/(x-2)

The domain is all Real x except x = 2 .

(because when x = 2 (cd)(x) is undefined).
