2/8 + 1/4 + 1/2 is equal to 1. Brainliest?
kykrilka [37]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: 2/8+1/4+1/2

Step-by-step explanation: I think the correct answer is 2/8+1/4+1/2, because 3/4+2/3+1/2=1 11/12. 1/4+1/2=3/4. 5/3+1/6+1/3=2 1/6.

You are given the information that P(A) = 0.30 and P(B) = 0.40.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

1.B. No. You need to know the value of P(A and B). 2.C. Yes P(A and B) =0, so P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B).

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question considering the following:

For two mutually exclusive events:

\\ A_{1}\;and\;A_{2}

\\ P(A_{1} or A_{2}) = P(A_{1}) + P(A_{2}) (1)

An extension of the former expression is:

\\ P(A_{1} or A_{2}) = P(A_{1}) + P(A_{2}) - P(A_{1} and A_{2}) (2)

In <em>mutually exclusive events,</em> P(A and B) = 0, that is, the events are <em>independent </em>one of the other, and we know the probability that <em>both events happen</em> <em>at the same time is zero</em> (P(A <em>and</em> B) = 0). There are some other cases in which if event A happens, event B too, so they are not mutually exclusive because P(A <em>and</em> B) is some number different from zero. Notice the difference between <em>OR</em> and <em>AND. The latter implies that both events happen at the same time.</em>

In other words, notice that the formula (2) provides an extension of formula (1) for those events that are not <em>mutually exclusive</em>, that is, there are some cases in which the events share the same probabilities in a way that these probabilities <em>must be subtracted</em> from the total, so those probabilities in common do not "inflate" the actual probability.

For instance, imagine a person going to a gas station and ask for checking both a tire and lube oil of his/her car. The probability for checking a tire is P(A)=0.16, for checking lube oil is P(B)=0.30, and for both P(A and B) = 0.07.

The number 0.07 represents the probability that <em>both events occur at the same time</em>, so the probability that this person ask for checking a tire or the lube oil of his/her car is:

P(A or B) = 0.16 + 0.30 - 0.07 = 0.39.

That is why we cannot simply add some given probabilities <em>without acknowledging if the events are or not mutually exclusive</em>, whereas we can certainly add the probabilities in question when we know that both probabilities are <em>mutually exclusive</em> since P(A and B) = 0.

In conclusion, knowing the events are mutually exclusive <em>does</em> provide <em>extra information</em> and we can proceed to simply add the probabilities of either event; thus, the answers are those in which <em>we need to previously know the value of P(A and B)</em>.

In a triangle ABC, measure of angle B is 90 degrees. AB is 3x-2 units and BC is x+3. If the area of the triangle is 17 sq cm, fo
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

x=\frac{8}{3}\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the right triangle ABC is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(AB)(BC)

we have

A=17\ cm^2

AB=(3x-2)\ cm

BC=(x+3)\ cm

substitute the values

17=\frac{1}{2}(3x-2)(x+3)

34=(3x-2)(x+3)

34=3x^2+9x-2x-6

3x^2+7x-6-34=0

3x^2+7x-40=0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

3x^2+7x-40=0

so

a=3\\b=7\\c=-40

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-7(+/-)\sqrt{7^{2}-4(3)(-40)}} {2(3)}

x=\frac{-7(+/-)\sqrt{529}} {6}

x=\frac{-7(+/-)23} {6}

x=\frac{-7(+)23} {6}=\frac{16}{6}=\frac{8}{3}

x=\frac{-7(-)23} {6}=-5

therefore

The solution is

x=\frac{8}{3}\ cm

4. The Bulldog Theater charges $9.10 for each adult ticket and $7.75 for each student ticket. Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Two adult tickets and 5 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=adult tickets   Let s=student tickets

You know that each adult ticket is $9.10 and each student ticket cost $7.75. At the end, it cost $56.95 for both students and adults so the first equation should be 9.10a+7.75s=56.95. To get the second equation, you know that Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets in total that were both students and adults. Therefore, the second equation should be a+s=7. The two equations are 9.10a+7.75s=56.95

a+s=7.

Now, use substitution to solve this. I will isolate s from this equation so the new equation should be s=-a+7. Plug in this equation to the other equation, it will look like this 9.10a+7.75(-a+7)=56.95. Simplify this to get 9.10a-7.75a+54.25=56.95. Simplify this again and the equation will become 1.35a=2.70. Then divide 1.35 by each side to get a=2. This Mrs. Williams bought two adult tickets. Plug in 2 into a+s=7, it will look like this (2)+s=7. Simplify this and get s=5. This means Mrs. Williams bought five adult tickets. Therefore she bought 2 adult tickets and 5 student tickets.

Hope this helps
