3/8 + 3/5 = <u>39/40</u> and 39/40 Can't be <em>simplified</em>
Answer:
a) The probability of selling less than 100 gallons (x≤1) is P=0.16.
b) The mean number of gallons is M=80 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of selling x, in hundred of gallons, on any day during the summer is y(x)=0.32x, in a range for x from [0;2.5].
The probability of selling less than 100 gallons (x≤1) is then:

The mean number of gallons can be calculated as:

1. 3x+8+4x+10=8x
2. 7x+18=8x
3. 18=x
maybe there is a glitch in the system... i have worked the equation more than 5 times... there is no other solution. i suggest u ask ur teacher for assistance, to make sure u are correct.
Good luck!
The answer is c because the input values do not have to be consecutive, the output values can be decimals and fractions, and the output values are not always increasing as they go on, sometimes they decrease. for example, look at exponential decay and exponential growth. hope this helped (;
