Undergrad Understanding the 'ERR: Nonreal Ans' Error with Psi and Phi
I just had a question involving both psi and phi. I know that: Ψ= (1-√5)/2 = -0.618033989... Φ= (1+√5)/2 = 1.618033989... And out of boredom, I decided to put into my calculator: (Φ^Ψ) = 0.7427429446... But my question rose from there: What happens if you do (Ψ^Φ)? I plugged it in and...- eric.l

Showed the above to my teacher and he verified how that was the correct way to show that it was impossible. I double and triple checked before I even posted to make sure I didn't forget anything and I did not, and I'm almost positive the question came off a previous AP exam and I doubt that...- eric.l

Probability Events in Statistics
Homework Statement Given two events, A and B, state why each of the following is not possible. Use formulas or equations to illustrate your answer. d. P(B) = 0.24 and P(B|A) = 0.32 Homework Equations P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B|A) P(B|A)= (P(A ∩ B))/P(A) P(A|B)= (P(A ∩ B))/P(B) The...- eric.l
