Answer:

x = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{9}$ + $\frac{1}{3}$ = - $\frac{4}{3}$ ( multiply through by 9 to clear the fractions )

x + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = - 15

A signal can be sent from one location to another by running different colored flags up a flagpole, one above the other. There a

Verdich [7]

Using the permutation formula, it is found that there are 17,297,280 different signals consisting of 8 flags.

In this problem, the order in which the flags are visited is important, hence the <em>permutation formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>What is the permutation formula?</h3>

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by:

$P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}$

The first flag is blue, then the remaining 7 are taken from a set of 14, hence:

$P_{(14,7)} = \frac{14!}{7!} = 17,297,280$

There are 17,297,280 different signals consisting of 8 flags.

klio [65]

Answer:

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor of making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday, or they are against. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
