Part (a)

P(A) = 0.5

P(B) = 0.4

P(B/A) = 0.6

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B/A)

P(A and B) = 0.5*0.6

P(A and B) = 0.3

<h3>Answer: 0.3</h3>

==========================================

Part (b)

We'll use the result from part (a)

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.3

P(A or B) = 0.6

<h3>Answer: 0.6</h3>

===========================================

Part (c)

A and B are not independent since P(B) does not equal P(B/A). The fact that event A happens changes the probability P(B). Recall that P(B/A) means "probability P(B) based on event A already happened". A and B are independent if P(B) = P(B/A).

Events A and B are not mutually exclusive since P(A or B) is not zero.

<h3>Answer: Neither</h3>

Help please. i am confused
liraira [26]

Answer:

G(x+2) = 7x^2 + 33x + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

So in the G(x) function, to find G(x+2), we just simply plug in the value of x+2 into the function and the result is what is wanted. SO:

G(x+2) = 7(x+2)^2 + 5(x+2) -8 , which is 7x^2 +33x +30 after SIMP - lifying (see what I did there ;)

Hope i helped, please make this brainly. :)

Suppose that the p-value was 0.0259. what is the appropriate conclusion to make if α = 0.05?
fiasKO [112]
<span>It is clear to see that 0.0259 is less than 0.05. A p-value that is less than the confidence level of alpha indicates that there is sufficient evidence from the data that the null hypothesis should be rejected in favor of an alternative hypothesis.</span>
