Answer:

$8(2x-1)$

WE used distributive property to generate this expression

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalent expression for 16x − 8

To get equivalent expression we factor out GCF

$16x--> 2,2,2,2,x$

$8-->2,2,2$

Greatest common factor GCF is $2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 =8$

We take out GCF 8

16x − 8

$8(2x-1)$

WE used distributive property to generate this expression

Return to the credit card scenario of Exercise 12 (Section 2.2), and let C be the event that the selected student has an America

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

A. P = 0.73

B. P(A∩B∩C') = 0.22

C. P(B/A) = 0.5

P(A/B) = 0.75

D. P(A∩B/C) = 0.4

E. P(A∪B/C) = 0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the event that a student has a Visa card, B the event that a student has a MasterCard and C the event that a student has a American Express card. Additionally, let's call A' the event that a student hasn't a Visa card, B' the event that a student hasn't a MasterCard and C the event that a student hasn't a American Express card.

Then, with the given probabilities we can find the following probabilities:

P(A∩B∩C') = P(A∩B) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.3 - 0.08 = 0.22

Where P(A∩B∩C') is the probability that a student has a Visa card and a Master Card but doesn't have a American Express, P(A∩B) is the probability that a student has a has a Visa card and a MasterCard and P(A∩B∩C) is the probability that a student has a Visa card, a MasterCard and a American Express card. At the same way, we can find:

P(A∩C∩B') = P(A∩C) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.15 - 0.08 = 0.07

P(B∩C∩A') = P(B∩C) - P(A∩B∩C) = 0.1 - 0.08 = 0.02

P(A∩B'∩C') = P(A) - P(A∩B∩C') - P(A∩C∩B') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.6 - 0.22 - 0.07 - 0.08 = 0.23

P(B∩A'∩C') = P(B) - P(A∩B∩C') - P(B∩C∩A') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.4 - 0.22 - 0.02 - 0.08 = 0.08

P(C∩A'∩A') = P(C) - P(A∩C∩B') - P(B∩C∩A') - P(A∩B∩C)

= 0.2 - 0.07 - 0.02 - 0.08 = 0.03

A. the probability that the selected student has at least one of the three types of cards is calculated as:

P = P(A∩B∩C) + P(A∩B∩C') + P(A∩C∩B') + P(B∩C∩A') + P(A∩B'∩C') +

P(B∩A'∩C') + P(C∩A'∩A')

P = 0.08 + 0.22 + 0.07 + 0.02 + 0.23 + 0.08 + 0.03 = 0.73

B. The probability that the selected student has both a Visa card and a MasterCard but not an American Express card can be written as P(A∩B∩C') and it is equal to 0.22

C. P(B/A) is the probability that a student has a MasterCard given that he has a Visa Card. it is calculated as:

P(B/A) = P(A∩B)/P(A)

So, replacing values, we get:

P(B/A) = 0.3/0.6 = 0.5

At the same way, P(A/B) is the probability that a student has a Visa Card given that he has a MasterCard. it is calculated as:

P(A/B) = P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.3/0.4 = 0.75

D. If a selected student has an American Express card, the probability that she or he also has both a Visa card and a MasterCard is written as P(A∩B/C), so it is calculated as:

P(A∩B/C) = P(A∩B∩C)/P(C) = 0.08/0.2 = 0.4

E. If a the selected student has an American Express card, the probability that she or he has at least one of the other two types of cards is written as P(A∪B/C) and it is calculated as:

P(A∪B/C) = P(A∪B∩C)/P(C)

Where P(A∪B∩C) = P(A∩B∩C)+P(B∩C∩A')+P(A∩C∩B')

So, P(A∪B∩C) = 0.08 + 0.07 + 0.02 = 0.17

Finally, P(A∪B/C) is:

P(A∪B/C) = 0.17/0.2 =0.85

Which figure has a greater volume, and how much greater is it? 2 figures. One figure has a rectangular prism with length of 36 f

denpristay [2]

Answer:

The volume of figure 1 is 11340 ft^3 greater than figure 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For rectangular prism, volume is

V = lenght x width x height

V = 36 x 21 x 18 = 13608 ft^3

For rectangular pyramid, volume is

V = (lenght x width x height) ÷ 3

V = (36 x 21 x 9) ÷3 = 6804/3 =2268 ft^3

Difference in volume = 11340 ft^3

Every day, a lecture may be canceled due to inclement weather with probability 0.05. Class cancelations on different days are in

andrezito [222]

<h3>(a)Probability of cancelling at least 4 classes is 0.0055.</h3><h3>(b)Probability of 10th class is third class that gets cancelled = 0.0031</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the question is<u> incomplete</u>.

Every day, a lecture may be canceled due to inclement weather with probability 0.05. Class cancellations on different days are independent.

(a) There are 15 classes left this semester. Compute the probability that at least 4 of them get canceled.

(b) Compute the probability that the tenth class this semester is the third class that gets canceled.

Now, here:

The probability of cancelling each class = 0.05

Now, probability of cancelling at least 4 classes

= 1 - P(Cancelling at max 3 classes)

= 1 - P(0 ≤ x ≤ 3) = 1 - Binomial (15,0.05,3)

= 0.0055

Hence, probability of cancelling at least 4 classes is 0.0055.

(b) As given, 10th class is third class that gets cancelled.

So, the first and second classes that get cancelled in between 1 - 9.

P(2 class cancelled in 1st 9) = Binomial (15,0.05,3) = 0.0629

Also, as given P(10th class cancelled) = 0.05

⇒ P(10th class is third class that gets cancelled ) = 0.0629 x 0.05 = 0.0031
