Answer:
Not independent
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem involves independence criteria for conditional probabilities.
The two events will be independent if P(A/B)=P(A) or P(B/A)=P(B)
Let us assumes that event A is for student attending private college and B is for student graduating in four years.
So we are given the following probabilities
P(A)=0.20
P(B)=0.55
P(B/A)=0.79
As we can see that P(B/A)≠P(B) so the events A and B are not independent.
So based on the above results we can say that "attending a private college or university" is not independent of "graduating in four years". Thus the two events "attending a private college or university" and "graduating in four years" are dependent.
Answer:
510.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice the common ratio 0.09, which is also the projected annual growth rate.
In 2008, 8 years after 2000, the company's net worth should be
w(8) = 256(1.09)^8 = 510.10
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is equal to
, where
is the length of the rectangle and
is the width of the rectangle. In a rectangle, opposite sides are equal.
Therefore, we can write the following system of equations:

Expand the first equation:

Substitute the second equation into the first (
):

Solving for
:

X^(3•2) =X^ 6
Think of an example such as :
(2^3)^2=8^2=64 is the same with
2^(3•2) = 2^6 = 64
