5 0

Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x – 1) – 2(2x + 1) = 8(x – 1)

Distribute

3x-3 -4x-2 = 8x-8

Combine like terms

-x-5 = 8x-8

Add x to each side

-x+x-5 =8x+x -8

-5 = 9x-8

Add 8 to each side

-5+8 = 9x-8+8

3 = 9x

Divide by 9

3/9 =9x/9

1/3 =x

There are 92 students in a chemistry class. The instructor must choose two students at random. Students in a Chemistry Class Aca
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

0.0108 = 1.08% probability that a sophomore non-Chemistry major and then a junior non-Chemistry major are chosen at random.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Probability that a sophomore non-Chemistry major

Out of 92 students, 9 are non-chemistry major sophomores. So

P(A) = \frac{9}{92}

Then a junior non-Chemistry major are chosen at random.

Now, there are 91 students(1 has been chosen), of which 10 are non-chemistry major juniors. So

P(B) = \frac{10}{91}

What is the probability that a sophomore non-Chemistry major and then a junior non-Chemistry major are chosen at random

P = P(A)*P(B) = \frac{9}{92}*\frac{10}{91} = \frac{9*10}{92*91} = 0.0108

0.0108 = 1.08% probability that a sophomore non-Chemistry major and then a junior non-Chemistry major are chosen at random.
