<u>answer:</u>  x = 11

<u>work:</u>

3(x+4)=5(x-2)  | distribute 3 and 5 into the parentheses.

3x + 12 = 5x - 10  | subtract 5x and move it over to 3x, and solve.

-2x + 12 = -10  | subtract 12 and move it over to -10, and solve.

-2x = -22  | divide by -2.

x = 11  | final answer.

hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin

Gotcha!

3(x+4)=5(x-2)

Distributive Property

3x+12=5x-10

Subtract 5x from 3x & 12 from -10

So far, you would have: -2x=-22

Divide both sides by -2!

Answer: x=11

Find the indicated probability. round to three decimal places. a test consists of 10
Charra [1.4K]

To answer this problem, we use the binomial distribution formula for probability:

P (x) = [n! / (n-x)! x!] p^x q^(n-x)

Where,

n = the total number of test questions = 10

<span>x = the total number of test questions to pass =   >6</span>

p = probability of success = 0.5

q = probability of failure = 0.5

Given the formula, let us calculate for the probabilities that the student will get at least 6 correct questions by guessing.

P (6) = [10! / (4)! 6!] (0.5)^6 0.5^(4) = 0.205078

P (7) = [10! / (3)! 7!] (0.5)^7 0.5^(3) = 0.117188

P (8) = [10! / (2)! 8!] (0.5)^8 0.5^(2) = 0.043945

P (9) = [10! / (1)! 9!] (0.5)^9 0.5^(1) = 0.009766

P (10) = [10! / (0)! 10!] (0.5)^10 0.5^(0) = 0.000977

Total Probability = 0.376953 = 0.38 = 38%

<span>There is a 38% chance the student will pass.</span>
