Answer:

Hardy has 470 more tennis balls than Kerns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of tennis balls = 940

Let,

x represents the number of tennis balls Hardy has.

y represents the number of tennis balls Kerns has.

According to given statement,

x+y=940     Eqn 1

x = 3y         Eqn 2

Putting x = 3y in Eqn 1

3y+y=940

4y=940

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{940}{4}\\y=235

Putting y=235 in Eqn 2

x = 3(235)

x = 705

Difference = Hardy's tennis balls - Kerns' tennis balls

Difference = 705 - 235 = 470

Hence,

Hardy has 470 more tennis balls than Kerns.

Consider the following scenario: Let P(C) = 0.4. Let P(D) = 0.5. Let P(C|D) = 0.6. a. Find P(C AND D). b. Are C and D mutually e
Nataly_w [17]

a. By definition of conditional probability,

P(C | D) = P(C and D) / P(D)  ==>  P(C and D) = 0.3

b. C and D are mutually exclusive if P(C and D) = 0, but this is clearly not the case, so no.

c. C and D are independent if P(C and D) = P(C) P(D). But P(C) P(D) = 0.2 ≠ 0.3, so no.

d. Using the inclusion/exclusion principle, we have

P(C or D) = P(C) + P(D) - P(C and D)  ==>  P(C or D) = 0.6

e. Using the definition of conditional probability again, we have

P(D | C) = P(C and D) / P(C)  ==>  P(D | C) = 0.75

Does anyone know to solve this?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanBecause many objects are not regularly shaped their volume cannot be determined using a volume formula. The volume of these objects can be found by water displacement. A volume of water sufficient to cover the object is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume read. The object is added to the cylinder and the volume read again. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the object. This method is demonstrated using the same battery used above.

Fix a matrix A and a vector b. Suppose that y is any solution of the homogeneous system Ax=0 and that z is any solution of the s
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Since y is a solution of the homogeneus system then satisfies Ay=0.

Since z is a solution of the system Ax=b then satisfies Az=b.

Now, we will show that A(y+z)=b.

Observe that A(y+z)=Ay+Az by properties of the product of matrices.

By hypotesis Ay=0 and Az=b.

Then A(y+z)=Ay+Az=0+b=b.

Then A(y+z)=b, this show that y+z is a solution of the system Ax=b.
