b) 36.54% of people experienced problems with an online transaction and abandoned the transaction or switched to a competitor′s website

c) 46.11% of people experienced problems with an online transaction and contacted customer-service representatives.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What percentage of people did not experience problems with an online transaction?

b. What percentage of people experienced problems with an online transaction and abandoned the transaction or switched to a competitor′s website?

87% of people have experienced problems with an online transaction. Forty-two percent of people who experienced a problem abandoned the transaction or switched to a competitor′s website.

Then:

0.87*0.42 = 0.3654

36.54% of people experienced problems with an online transaction and abandoned the transaction or switched to a competitor′s website.

c. What percentage of people experienced problems with an online transaction and contacted customer-service representatives?

87% of people have experienced problems with an online transaction. Fifty-three percent of people who experienced problems contacted customer-service representatives.

Then:

0.87*0.53 = 0.4611

46.11% of people experienced problems with an online transaction and contacted customer-service representatives.

What value of x satisfies the equation 5(x – 3) – 2(x + 1) = 4?
hjlf

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve:

Distribute 5 among everything inside the first parentheses. You'll get 5x - 15.

Next distribute -2 among everything in the second parentheses. You'll get

-2x - 2.

<u>All together: 5x - </u><u>15</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2x </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>= 4</u>

Now combine like terms:

5x - 2x = 3x and -15 - 2 = - 17

<u>All</u><u> </u><u>together</u><u>: 3x -</u><u> </u><u>17 = 4</u>

Add 17 on both sides to get 21, and then divide both sides by 3. Answer is x = 7.

________________________________

Last, don't forget to check your work.

You can plug in 7 for x to get:

5(7 - 3) = 20

5 × 7 = 35

5 × -3 = -15

35 - 15 = 20

-2(7 + 1) = -16

-2 × 7 = -14

-2 × 1 = - 2

-14 -2 = -16

<u>20 - 16 = 4</u>

⬆⬆⬆Therefore this is correct.

Sorry this is a bit lengthy, but hope this helps :)
