What is a complementary event?

2 answers:

Two events are said to be complementary when one event occurs if and only if the other does not. The probabilities of two complimentary events add up to 1. For example, rolling a 5 or greater and rolling a 4 or less on a die are complementary events, because a roll is 5 or greater if and only if it is not 4 or less.

Answer:

In probability theory, the complement of any event A is the event [not A], i.e. the event that A does not occur. The event A and its complement [not A] are mutually exclusive and exhaustive.

PLEASE HELP ME! There are 2 Images below!!!

exis [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The slop formula is $\frac{rise}{run}$ and in the first one the rise increase per y (x) is 2 units and the run (y) is 1 as we calculated the run as how many units x rises per y and A is the answer due to it being the one which follows the rule.

If the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (−8, −6) and (−4, −14), what is the standard form equation of the circle?

kondaur [170]

Equation of the circle is $(x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20$ .

Solution:

The endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (–8, –6) and (–4, –14).

Center of the circle = Mid point of the diameter

Mid point formula:

$$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Here, $x_1=-8, y_1=-6, x_2=-4, y_2=-14$

$$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-8-4}{2}, \frac{-6-14}{2}\right)$

$$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-12}{2}, \frac{-20}{2}\right)$

$$P(x, y) =(-6, -10)$

Center of the circle = (–6, –10)

Radius is the distance between center and any endpoint of the diameter.

To calculate the radius using distance formula.

$r=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}$

Here, $x_1=-6, y_1=-10, x_2=-8, y_2=-6$

$r=\sqrt{\left(-8-(-6)\right)^{2}+\left(-6-(-10)}\right)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{(-8+6)^{2}+(-6+10)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$r=\sqrt{20}$ units

The standard form of the equation of a circle is

$(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}$ , where (a, b) are center and r is the radius.

Here, center = (–6, –10) and $r=\sqrt{20}$

$(x-(-6))^{2}+(y-(-10))^{2}={(\sqrt{20})} ^{2}$

$(x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20$

Equation of the circle is $(x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20$ .
