Among 500 freshmen pursuing a business degree at a university, 311 are enrolled in an economics course, 243 are enrolled in a ma

thematics course, and 135 are enrolled in both an economics and a mathematics course. What is the probability that a freshman selected at random from this group is enrolled in each of the following?
a) an economics and/or a mathematics course.
b) exactly one of these two courses.
c) neither an economics course nor a mathematics course.

Solution :

Let A = Economics, B = Mathematics

n(A) = 311, n(B) = 243, $n(A \cap B) = 135$

a). So, $n(A \cup B) = n(A) +n(B) - n(A \cap B)$

                     = 311 + 243 - 135

                     = 419

b). n(A only) = 311 - 135

                   = 176

     n(B only) = 243 - 135

                   = 108

Exactly one of these two courses

  $=\frac{176+108}{500}$

  = 0.568

c). Neither economics nor mathematics

    $=\frac{500-419}{500} $

  $=\frac{81}{500}$

 = 0.162

1. The amount of extension in an elastic spring varies directly as the weight hung on it. If a weight of 150 gm produces an exte
gregori [183]

Answer:

900 g

Step-by-step explanation:

let e be extension and w be weight

given e varies directly as w then the equation relating them is

e = kw ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition w = 150 , e = 2.9 , then

2.9 = 150k ( divide both sides by 150 )

\frac{2.9}{150} = k , that is

k = \frac{29}{1500}

e = \frac{29}{1500} w ← equation of variation

when e = 17.4 , then

17.4 = \frac{29}{1500} w ( multiply both sides by 1500 )

26100 = 29w ( divide both sides by 29 )

900 = w

If p(a|b) = 0.35, p(b) = 0.75 and p(a) = 0.44 are the events a and b independent ?
MatroZZZ [7]
Hello : 
note 1 : 
 p(A|B) = p(A∩B)/<span> p(B)

note 2 : 
</span> A and B independent: p(A∩B) = p(A)×p(B)
calculate : p(A∩B)
p(A∩B) = p(A|B)×p(B)
p(A∩B) = 0.35 ×0.75 = 0.2625
but :  p(A)×p(B) = 0.44×0.75 = 0.33
 conclusion : 
<span>the events A and B  are not  independent ?</span>
