-4(x - 2) - 3x = 2(5x - 7) + 6
Allisa [31]

Answer: last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To apply the Distributive property, remember that:

c(a-b)=ca-cb

Then, applying this, you get:

-4(x - 2) - 3x = 2(5x - 7) + 6\\\\(-4)(x)+(-4)(-2)-3x=(2)(5x)+(2)(-7)+6\\\\-4x+8-3x=10x-14+6

Combine like terms means that you need to add the like terms.

Therefore, you get:

-7x+8=10x-8

You can observe that the expression obtained matches with the expression provided in the last option.

134 A financial analyst believes that if interest rates decrease in a given period then the
lawyer [7]

The probability that the market will go up and interest rate will go down during the period in question is 0.03.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that the market will go up and interest rate will go down  = 0.08 X 0.40 = 0.03

A manufactured lot of buggy whips has 20 items, of which 5 are defective. A random sample of 5 items is chosen to be inspected.
Finger [1]

Answer:

P(X=1)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=1) = (5C1) (0.25)^1 (1-0.25)^{5-1}= 0.396

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Solution to the problem  

For this cae that one buggy whip would be defective is p = \frac{5}{20}=0.25

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=5, p=0.25)  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

And we want to find this probability:

P(X=1)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=1) = (5C1) (0.25)^1 (1-0.25)^{5-1}= 0.396
