X=11
All you have to do is add 5 to both sides and then divide by 5 on both sides
I find it easiest to use slope-intercept form, or y=mx+b, to do this.
First, find the slope. 6/3 = 2/1 = 2. m = 2.
Next, find the y-intercept. In this case they gave it to you directly. b = -3.
So, the equation would be y = 2x - 3.
Answer:
the time percentage is 17%
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the time percenatge in the case when the detector lie and done with the mistake is as follows:
L denotes the event in which a person is lying.
NL denotes the event in which a person is not lying.
C denotes the event in which that lie detector works correctly
NC denotes the event in which lie detector is not working correctly
Now
P(C|L) =0.8
And,
P(NC|L) is
=1 - .8
= 0.2
P(C|NL) =0.9
P(NC|NL) is
= 1 -.9
=.1
P(L) = 0.7
P(NL) is
= 1 - .7
= .3
Now
P(NC) =P(NC|L) × P(L) + P(NC|NL) × P(NL)
=. 2 × .7 + .1 ×.3
=. 14+.03
= 0.17
Hence, the time percentage is 17%
18-4x=7x+7
11-4x=7x
11=11x
x=1
