Suppose that we have a box that contains two coins: A fair coin: P(H)=P(T)=0.5 . A two-headed coin: P(H)=1 . A coin is chosen at random from the box, i. e. either coin is chosen with probability 1/2 , and tossed twice. Conditioned on the identity of the coin, the two tosses are independent. Define the following events: Event A : first coin toss is H . Event B : second coin toss is H . Event C : two coin tosses result in HH . Event D : the fair coin is chosen. For the following statements, decide whether they are true or false. A and B are independent.

2 . True

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The two events are mutually exclusive events. This means that the probabilities on coins 1 and coins 2 are independent on each other. In other words, the probability of the first coin does not affect the probability of the second coin outcome.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
