An ad agency is developing a campaign to promote a business opening in a new mall development. To develop an appropriate mailing

list, they decide to purchase lists of credit card holders from MasterCard and American Express. Combining the lists, they find the following: 40 percent of the people on the list have only a MasterCard and 10 percent have only an American Express card. Another 20 percent hold both MasterCard and American Express. Finally, 30 percent of those on the list have neither card. Suppose a person on the list is known to have a MasterCard. What is the probability that person also has an American Express card?

Answer:

The answer is 1/3 or 0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the following ocurrences:

A: A person has a MasterCard

B: A person has an American Express

The data says:

P(A∩B) = 0.2

P(A without B) = 0.4

P(B without A) = 0.1

Then, P(A) =  P(A∩B) +P(A without B) = 0.2+0.4 = 0.6

By conditional probability theory:

P (B/A) = P(A∩B) / P(A) = 0.2 / 0.6 = 1/3 = 0.33

Thus

P(B/A) = 1/3 = 0.33

Using the power series methods solve the 1st order Lane-Emden Equation:
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 2y + xy = 0

Hence, 2y + xy = 0 ---------(1)

Differentiating equation (1) n times by Leibnitz theorem, gives:

2y(n) + xy(n) + ny(n - 1) = 0

Let x = 0: 2y(n) + ny(n - 1) = 0

2y(n) = -ny(n - 1)

∴ y(n) = -ny(n - 1)/2 for n ≥ 1

For n = 1: y = 0

For n = 2: y(1) = -y

For n = 3: -3y(2)/2

For n = 4: -2y(3)

Answer:

<u>The measure of the arc CD = 64°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the measure of the arc CD in degrees.

So, as shown at the graph

BE and AD are are diameters of circle P

And ∠APE is a right angle ⇒ ∠APE = 90°

So, BE⊥AD

And so, ∠BPE = 90° ⇒(1)

But it is given: ∠BPE = (33k-9)° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

∴ 33k - 9 = 90

∴ 33k = 90 + 9 = 99

∴ k = 99/33 = 3

The measure of the arc CD = ∠CPD = 20k + 4

By substitution with k

<u>∴ The measure of the arc CD = 20*3 + 4 = 60 + 4 = 64°</u>

An oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units. An oblique trapezoidal prism is shown. The trapezoid h
denis23 [38]

Answer:

volume of trapezoidal prism = 15x^2 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

First, area of the trapezoidal bases.

Parallel sides measure x and 2x, for an average of 1.5x.

Height = x

Area of trapezoidal base = 1.5x*x = 1.5x^2

Volume of prism = area base * height

(length does not matter, height does)

= 1.5x^2 * 10 = 15x^2
