Prove that the product of any two consecutive natural numbers is even.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the 2 consecutive natural numbers are 'n' and 'n+1'

Thus the product of the 2 numbers is given by

$Product=n(n+1)\\\\$

We know that the sum of 'n' consecutive natural numbers starting from 1 is

$S_n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\\\\\therefore n(n+1)=2\times S_n............(i)$

Thus from equation 'i' we can write

$Product=2\times S_n$

As we know that any number multiplied by 2 is even thus we conclude that the product of 2 consecutive numbers is even.

A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is upper s equals startset 4 comma 5 comma 6 c

olchik [2.2K]

The correct question statement is:

A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is S = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}. Let event E={7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}. Assume each outcome is equally likely. List the outcomes in $E^{c}$ . Find $P(E^{c})$ .

Solution:

Part 1:

$E^{c}$ means compliment of the set E. A compliment of a set can be obtained by finding the difference of the set from the universal set. The universal set is the set which contains all the possible outcomes of the events which is S in this case.

So, compliment of E will be equal to S - E. S - E will result in all those elements of S which are not present in E. So, we can write:

$E^{c}=S-E \\ \\ 
E^{c}=(4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15)-(7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15) \\ \\ 
E^{c}=(4,5,6)$

Thus the set compliment of E will contain the elements {4,5,6}.So

$E^{c}$ = {4,5,6}

Part 2)

$P(E^{c})$ means probability that if we select any number from the Sample Space S, it will belong the set E compliment.

$P(E^{c})$ = (Number of Elements in $E^{c}$ )/Number of elements in S

Number of elements in set S = n(S) = 12
Number of elements in set $E^{c}$ = $n(E^{c})$ =3

So,

$P(E^{c})= \frac{n(E^{c}) }{n(S)} \\ \\ 
P(E^{c})= \frac{3}{12} \\ \\ 
P(E^{c})= \frac{1}{4}$

Sam and Bruno were computing how many kilometers they rode in the 3 bike trips they took last month. In order, they rode 45.7, 4

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

We are given number of miles the 3 bike trips they took last month = 45.7, 40.9, and 38 miles.

Sam and Bruno were computing how many kilometers.

Also one kilometer equals 0.621 miles.

From this we can see than 1 kilometer is smaller unit and a mile is a larger unit.

In order to convert number of miles into kilometers, we need to divide each number of mile by 0.621 miles.

We always divide a larger value by a smaller value to get the smaller unit.

Therefore,
