Although the rules of probability are just basic facts about percents or proportions, we need to be able to use the language of events and their probabilities. Choose an American adult aged 20 years and over at random. Define two events:

A= the person chosen is obese
B= the person chosen is overweight, but not obese.

According to the National Center for Health Statistics,
P(A)=0.38
P(B)=0.33

1. Explain why events A and B are disjoint.

a. Because event B rules out obese subjects.
b. Because an obese person is certainly overweight.
c. Because some people may be considered obese and overweight.
d. Because some people are not obese nor overweight.

2. Say in plain language what the event "A or B" is.

a. "A or B" is the event that the person chosen is overweight or obese.
b. "A or B" is the event that the person chosen is overweight and obese.
c. "A or B" is the event that the person chosen is overweight or obese or both.
d. "A or B" is the event that the person chosen is not obese or not over weight.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Because event B rules out obese subjects.

b. "A or B" is the event that the person chosen is overweight and obese.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Disjoint events are those events which do not have the same elements. Event A and event B can only be disjoint if they both have separate subjects that is event A contains obese persons and event B contains overweight persons.

Therefore they are only disjoint when set B rules out ( leaves out) obese people. So choice a is the best answer.

Disjoint events are also called mutually  exclusive events

2. In statistics the symbol or means including. Event A or B  would mean including both types of person obese and overweight. In mathematical expression it is written as

P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B) For mutually exclusive events. ( disjoint events)

When a number is increased by 26, the result is tripled. Then the result is increased by 72. If the final result is 1/2 of the number, what is the value of this number?

Answers

Answer:

-60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Number is increased by 26 = x+26

Then result is tripled = 3(x+26)

Then the result is increased by 72 = 3(x+26)+72

Final result is [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] of the number = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x[/tex]

[tex]3(x+26)+72=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]3x+78+72=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]3x+150=\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]

Isolate variable terms.

[tex]3x-\dfrac{x}{2}=-150[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{6x-x}{2}=-150[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2.

[tex]5x=-300[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]x=-\dfrac{300}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=-60[/tex]

Therefore, the required number is -60.

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.
(-2, 1) and (6,-3)

Answers

Answer:

The midpoint is ( 2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add  the x coordinates and divide by 2

(-2+6)/2 =4/2 =2

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add  the y coordinates and divide by 2

( 1+-3)/2 = -2/2 = -1

The midpoint is ( 2,-1)

Answer:

(2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M is the midpoint of that segment with the endpoints A(-2,1) and B(6,-3)

x-coordinate of M:

xM = (xA + xB) / 2 = (-2 + 6) / 2 = 4 / 2 = 2

y-coordinate of M:

yM = (yA + yB) / 2 = ( 1 + -3) / 2 = -2 / 2 = -1

What is the equation of the line parallel to 3x + 5y = 11 that passes through the point (15, 4)?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line

The original line is 3x + 5y = 11

We must first write the equation in the general equation above

So we have

5y = - 3x + 11

Divide both sides by 5

[tex]y = - \frac{ 3}{5} x + \frac{11}{5} [/tex]

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = - 3/5

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

Slope of parallel line = - 3/5

So the equation of the line using point

(15, 4) and slope - 3/5 is

[tex]y - 4 = - \frac{3}{5} (x - 15) \\y - 4 = - \frac{3}{5} x + 9 \\ y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 9 + 4[/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{5} x + 13[/tex]

The product of two whole number is 462 and their sum is 43. What are the two numbers?

Answers

Answer:

21 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two whole numbers be a and b.

Their product is 462. Hence, we can write that:

[tex]ab=462[/tex]

Likewise, because their sum is 42:

[tex]a+b=43[/tex]

This yields a system of equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{cases} ab = 462 \\ a + b = 43 \end{cases}[/tex]

We can solve the system using substitution.

Isolating one variable in the second equation yields:

[tex]a=43-b[/tex]

From substitution:

[tex](43-b)(b)=462[/tex]

Distributing yields:

[tex]-b^2+43b=462[/tex]

Solve for b by factoring:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} b^2 - 43d & = -462 \\ \\ b^2 - 43d + 462 & = 0 \\ \\ (b-21)(b-22) &= 0 \\ \\ b = 21 \text{ or } b & = 22 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Solve for a:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} a& =43-(21) & \text{ or } a& =43-(22) \\ a&=22&\text{ or } a&=21\end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion, the two whole numbers are 21 and 22.

Solve the inequality 9y+5(y+3)<4y−35 and write the solution in interval notation.

Answers

Answer:

( −∞,−5) interval notation, and inequality solution y < -5 ,

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

y<-5

Your Interval Notation would be an open circle and the arrow would be pointing to the left. (<-- (-6) --- (-5) --- (-4) -->) This will be your # line.

Step-by-step explanation:

9y+5(y+3) < 4y-35

1) Distribute the 5 in 5(y+3).

9y+5y+15 < 4y-35

2) Combine like terms. 9y and 5y.

9y+5y= 14y

14y+15 < 4y-35

3) MY TIP is to keep the variables on the left side, bc if you don't at the end you will have to flip the sign. so.. Subtract 4y from both sides

14y+15 < 4y-35

-4 -4

10y+15 < -35

3) Then you will subtract 15 from both sides

10y+15 < -35

-15 -15

10y < -50

4) Last is to divide to get your variable by itself.

10y < -50

÷10 ÷10

Answer : y < -5

Interval Solution: Open circle, -5 in the middle of the line and you will shade in the numbers to the left. .

Compare the function ƒ(x) = –x2 + 4x – 5 and the function g(x), whose graph is shown. Which function has a greater absolute maximum (vertex)? Question 16 options: A) There isn't enough information given. B) g(x) and ƒ(x) have equal absolute maximums. C) g(x) D) ƒ(x)

Answers

Answer:

Answer C:  g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a graphing calculator to graph f(x) = -x^2 + 4x - 5, and by doing so I immedately saw that the vertex of f(x) is at (2, -1).

The absolute max of g(x) is approximately (3.25, 6.1).

The absolute max of f(x) is approximately (2, -1).

Since the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of g(x) is greater than the y-coordinate of the absolute maximum of f(x), we conclude that Answer C is correct:  g(x) has the greater absolute maximum

The sum of 2 composite numbers is never a prime number. Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite numbers are positive numbers that have factors, This means that they are divisible by numbers other than 1 and itself provided that number is a factor of the composite number. They possess at the bearest minimum level, a divisor other than  1 and itself. They are a natural number that is expressible as the product of two(or more) numbers other than 1 and itself.

For example:

4 is a composite number because its factors are 1, 2 and 4 which have another divisor apart from 1 and itself (4). That divisor is 2.

We all know that prime numbers are numbers that can be only be divided by 1 and itself.

Therefore, the sum of two composite number, for example:

4 + 6 = 10, We can now see that 10 is never a prime number.
