Roll two fair dice. Each die has six faces. A. Let A be the event that either a 3 or 4 is rolled first followed by an odd number

zhenek [66]

Answer:

A. 0.16

B. 0.58

C. No

D. Dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

The sampling space has 36 outcomes.

The event A has 6 outcomes (3,1), (3,3), (3,5), (4,1), (4,3),(4,5)

So P(A)= 6/36 = 0.16

The table in the picture shows the 15 outcomes that are not allowed, so there are 36-15 = 21 possible outcomes for B and its probability is 21/36 = 0.58

Are A and B mutually exclusive events?

No since their intersection is not empty, for example (3,1) belongs to both A and B

In order for A and B to be independent, it must happen that

P(A∩B)=P(A)P(B)

A∩B={(3,1),(3,3),(4,1)} so P(A∩B) = 3/36

whereas

P(A)P(B) = (6/36)(21/36) = (1/6)(7/12)=7/72

So A and B are not independent.

Find the sum. 1-2+3-4+5-6+7-8...99-100

zysi [14]

Answer:

-50

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 2 + 3 - 4 + 5 - 6 + 7 - 8...99 - 100

just means,

1 - 2 = -1

3 - 4 = -1

5 - 6 = - 1

7 - 8 = - 1

99 - 100 = -1

basically, -1 + -1 + -1 + -1 + ....+ -1 or -1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - ... - 1

$(-1)^{n}$

Treating Grandi's series as a divergent geometric series we may use the same algebraic methods that evaluate convergent geometric series to obtain a third value:

S = 1 − 1 − 1 + ..., so

1 − S = 1 − (1 − 1 − 1 ...) = 1 − 1 − 1 ... = S

1 - S = S

1 = 2*S

resulting in S = 1/2. The same conclusion results from calculating −S, subtracting the result from S, and solving 2S = 1

1/2 of the last term is 100 x 1/2 = 50

This because you are using 2 numbers per -1

example: 1 - 2 = -1 or 3 - 4 = -1 resulting in 50 of the -1 being subtracted
