Answer: A

Explanation:

If f(x) = 4x - 20
Then find f(4):

To find f(4) simply replace 4 to x

f(4) = 4(4) - 20
f(4) = 16 - 20
f(4) = -4

On Monday, Florencia's hair was hhh centimeters long. She got a haircut on Tuesday, so her hair was only 75%,of the length it wa

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

.75h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that length of the hair of Florencia on Monday = h centimeters. So new length of the hair of Florencia on Tuesday = 75% of Monday value

= 75% of (h)

= 0.75* (h)

= 0.75h

For two events A and B show that P (A∩B) ≥ P (A)+P (B)−1.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

<h3>For two events A and B show that P (A∩B) ≥ P (A)+P (B)−1.</h3>

By De morgan's law

$(A\cap B)^{c}=A^{c}\cup B^{c}\\\\P((A\cap B)^{c})=P(A^{c}\cup B^{c})\leq P(A^{c})+P(B^{c}) \\\\1-P(A\cap B)\leq P(A^{c})+P(B^{c}) \\\\1-P(A\cap B)\leq 1-P(A)+1-P(B)\\\\-P(A\cap B)\leq 1-P(A)-P(B)\\\\P(A\cap B)\geq P(A)+P(B)-1$

which is Bonferroni’s inequality

<h3>Result 1: P (Ac) = 1 − P(A)</h3>

Proof

If S is universal set then

$A\cup A^{c}=S\\\\P(A\cup A^{c})=P(S)\\\\P(A)+P(A^{c})=1\\\\P(A^{c})=1-P(A)$

<h3>Result 2 : For any two events A and B, P (A∪B) = P (A)+P (B)−P (A∩B) and P(A) ≥ P(B)</h3>

Proof:

If S is a universal set then:

$A\cup(B\cap A^{c})=(A\cup B) \cap (A\cup A^{c})\\=(A\cup B) \cap S\\A\cup(B\cap A^{c})=(A\cup B)$

Which show A∪B can be expressed as union of two disjoint sets.

If A and (B∩Ac) are two disjoint sets then

$P(A\cup B) =P(A) + P(B\cap A^{c})---(1)\\$

B can be expressed as:

$B=B\cap(A\cup A^{c})\\$

If B is intersection of two disjoint sets then

$P(B)=P(B\cap(A)+P(B\cup A^{c})\\P(B\cup A^{c}=P(B)-P(B\cap A)$

Then (1) becomes

$P(A\cup B) =P(A) +P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\$

<h3>Result 3: For any two events A and B, P(A) = P(A ∩ B) + P (A ∩ Bc)</h3>

Proof:

If A and B are two disjoint sets then

$A=A\cap(B\cup B^{c})\\A=(A\cap B) \cup (A\cap B^{c})\\P(A)=P(A\cap B) + P(A\cap B^{c})\\$

<h3>Result 4: If B ⊂ A, then A∩B = B. Therefore P (A)−P (B) = P (A ∩ Bc) </h3>

Proof:

If B is subset of A then all elements of B lie in A so A ∩ B =B

$A =(A \cap B)\cup (A\cap B^{c}) = B \cup ( A\cap B^{c})$

where A and A ∩ Bc are disjoint.

$P(A)=P(B\cup ( A\cap B^{c}))\\\\P(A)=P(B)+P( A\cap B^{c})$

From axiom P(E)≥0

$P( A\cap B^{c})\geq 0\\\\P(A)-P(B)=P( A\cap B^{c})\\P(A)=P(B)+P(A\cap B^{c})\geq P(B)$

Therefore,

P(A)≥P(B)
