Answer:

P(x< 18) = 0.986

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: find the z-score using the formula, z = (x - µ)/σ

Where,

x = randomly chosen values = 18

µ = mean = 7

σ = standard deviation = 5

Proportion of the population that is less than 18 = P(x < 18)

Plug in the values into z = (x - µ)/σ, to get z-score.

z = (18 - 7)/5

z = 11/5 = 2.2

Step 2: Find P(x< 18) = P (z<2.2) using z-table.

The probability that corresponds with z-score calculated is 0.986.

Therefore,

P(x< 18) = 0.986

Algebraic expression for 8+6q+q
irina1246 [14]
All you can do to this expression is simplify.

You need to combine all "like terms." There are two q terms so you need to combine those. To combine "like terms", simply add their coefficients. 6q has a coefficient of 6 and q has a coefficient of 1. So:

6q + 1q = 7q

Therefore your end result is:

8 +7q
