(a) answer is 5/4

(b) answer is 5/4

(c) No , when dealing with negative numbers , the number closer to zero is the bigger number . zero has the unique distinction of being neither positive nor negative . zero separates the positive number from the negative ones .

hope this will help you

Answer:

a. Which number is greater? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8:

answer: 5/4

b. Which number is farther from 0? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8:

answer: 5/4

c. Is the number that is farther from 0 always the greater number?:

answer: nah really.

A number can be further from zero but when it's a negative or positive. But negative value is less than zero.

From the sample space S={1,2,3,4,...,15} a single number is to be selected at random. Given the following events, find the ind

marshall27 [118]

The probabilities of the given events are:

A. P(even) = P(A) = 7/15

B. P(multiple) = P(B) = 3/15

C. P(prime) = 6/15

D. P(B|A) = 3/7

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes of an event to the total number of possible outcomes.

P(E) = n(E)/n(S)

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given sample space is S = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15}

So, n(S) = 15

A. The selected number is even:

Consider the event as A.

The set of even numbers in the given sample is {2,4,6,8,10,12,14}

So, n(A) = 7

Then, the required probability is

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

= 7/15

B. The selected number is a multiple of 4:

Consider the event as B.

The set of multiples of 4 in the given sample is {4,8,12}

So, n(B) = 3

Then, the required probability is

P(B) = n(B)/n(S)

= 3/15

C. The selected number is prime:

Consider the event as C.

The set of prime numbers in the given sample is {2,3,5,7,11,13}

So, n(C) = 6

Then, the required probability is

P(C) = n(C)/n(S)

= 6/15

D. calculate P(B|A):

Since events B and A are dependent events of the same sample,

n(A∩B) = 3 and the set is {4,8,12}. Then, P(B|A) is

P(B|A) = n(A∩B)/n(A)

⇒ P(B|A) = 3/7

X is inversely proportional to y, and x = 18 when y = 4. Write an equation relating the two

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$xy=72$

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is inversely porportionaly to y, then for some constant k,

$x = \frac{k}{y}\\xy=k$

Since y is 4 when x = 18, k is equal to 4*18=72, so the equation is:

$xy=72$
