Two events are said to be  Disjoint or Mutually Exclusive if the two events can not  happen at the same time.For example when we throw a die getting an even number is disjoint to getting an odd number.

I.e Probability(A∩B)=0

Let me explain this concept through venn diagram.

Pr[A∪B]=0.7, Pr[A]=0.25

Since events are Disjoint

Pr[A∩B]=0

Pr[A∪B]=Pr[A] + Pr[B]

0.7=0.25 +Pr[B]

0.7-0.25=Pr[B]

⇒Pr[B]=0.45=45/100=9/20

Now events are said to be independent if Pr[A and B]=Pr[A] ×Pr[B]

Events are said to be independent if occurrence of one is not affected by occurrence of other.For example getting multiple of 2 as one event and getting multiple of 3 as second event when we throw a die.

Pr[A∪B]=0.7, Pr[A]=0.25

Pr[A∪B]= Pr[A]+ Pr[B]-Pr[A∩B]

But Pr[A∩B]= Pr[A] ×Pr[B]

⇒Pr[A∪B]= Pr[A]+ Pr[B]- Pr[A] ×Pr[B]

⇒0.7=0.25+p-0.25×p

⇒0.7-0.25=p- 0.25 p

⇒0.45=0.75 p

⇒p= 0.45/0.75

⇒p =3/5

While starting salaries have fallen for college graduates in many of the top hiring fields, there is some good news for business
andriy [413]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the central limit theorem, if independent random samples of size n are repeatedly taken from any population and n is large, the distribution of the sample means will approach a normal distribution. The size of n should be greater than or equal to 30. Given n = 100 for both scenarios, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

a) x is a random variable representing the salaries of accounting graduates. We want to determine P( x > 52000)

From the information given

µ = 50402

σ = 6000

z = (52000 - 50402)/(6000/√100) = 2.66

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.9961

b) x is a random variable representing the salaries of finance graduates. We want to determine P(x > 52000)

From the information given

µ = 49703

σ = 10000

z = (52000 - 49703)/(10000/√100) = 2.3

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.9893

c) The probabilities of either jobs paying that amount is high and very close.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

see explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the null hypothesis is that the PCB survives against the alternate that the PCB 'does not survive'. The test says that the PCB will survice if it is classified as 'good'; or, it will not survive if it is classifies as 'bad'.

a. The Type II error is the error committed when a PCB which cannot actually survive is classified as 'good'.

b. Therefore P(Type II error) = P(The PCB is classified as 'good' | PCB does not survives) = 0.03.

Explain how your work your knowledge of place value helps you divide a number in thousands by whole numbers to 10 give a example
Anna71 [15]
Place value is the value each digit has in its position: in order from higher to lower value, there is thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones.
When you divide by 10, you are moving (only once) every digit from its present place value to the right.
For example 6430 : 10= 643, you have moved every digit to the right, making the zero disappear (or better yet, separated by a hidden and in this case useless comma).
