Suppose P( A) = 0.60, P( B) = 0.85, and A and B are independent. The probability of the complement of the event ( A and B) is: a

Answer: a. 0.4 × 0.15 = 0.060

Step-by-step explanation: Probability of the complement of an event is the one that is not part of the event.

For P(A):

P(A') = 1 - 0.6

P(A') = 0.4

For P(B):

P(B') = 1 - 0.85

P(B') = 0.15

To determine probability of A' and B':

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

P(A' and B') = 0.4*0.15

P(A' and B') = 0.06

Probability of the complement of the event is 0.060

8.52 The heights of 2-year-old children are normally distributed with a mean of 32 inches and a standard deviation of 1.5 inches

Answer:

Heights of 29.5 and below could be a problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The heights of 2-year-old children are normally distributed with a mean of 32 inches and a standard deviation of 1.5 inches.

This means that $\mu = 32, \sigma = 1.5$
