Explain the difference between independent and dependent events AND how I can tell the difference in a word problem.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Talja [164]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The difference between the two is that in a dependent event an action will affect the ultimate outcome, but in an independent event an action won't affect the ultimate outcome. A way to tell is if the total number of the "item" at hand will be affected by the action the question is saying. In the case of the example given, that is a dependent event because the total of marbles you started with is changed due to you not replacing the one you first took. Therefore the probability is now different.

a scalene triangle has an area of 20.335 square centimeters. the height of the triangle is 8.3 centimeters. what is the length o
UNO [17]
Area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height

20.335 = (1/2)*base*8.3

2*20.335 = base*8.3

(2*20.335) / 8.3 = base          Use your calculator.

4.9 = base

base = 4.9cm

Find the values of x and y that make these triangles congruent by HL.
Serhud [2]

Leg CB = x and leg DE = y - 1. Becuase of the markings on the triangles, we know that CB = DE; therefore, x = y - 1. So let's use that x value when we set the 2 hypotenuses equal to each other. Before any substition, 3x - 2 = 2y + 1. Subbing in for x we have 3(y - 1) - 2 = 2y + 1. And 3y - 3 - 2 = 2y + 1. Combining like terms we have y = 6. If y = 6, we will sub it into the leg equation to find x. x = y - 1; therefore, x = 6 - 1 and x = 5. There you go! x = 5 and y = 6

What is the slope of y=-x+7
Olenka [21]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the slope because x is the slope, and if there is no number in front of x then x is 1. There is also a negative in front of x which means the answer is -1.
