Answer:

a) 0.8836

b) 0.7339

c) 0.2342

Step-by-step explanation:

Books classified as fiction = 94% or 0.94 probability

Books classified as non-fiction = 1 - 0.94 = 0.06

a) for two books, we get: 0.94 * 0.94 = 0.8836 Probability

b) The probability that all five books are fiction is: 0.94^5

    This equals 0.7339 Probability

c) Probability that one books is non-fiction, while the other 4 are fiction is determined in the following way:

 Probability of non-fiction * probability of fiction^(number of books)

 0.06 * 0.94^4 = 0.0468

 This does not account for the order at which the non-fiction book shows up. Such as the non-fiction book being the first book picked, or in another case - the non-fiction book being the last picked.

Since there are 5 ways this could occur, the total probability will be calculated as shown: 0.0468 * 5 = 0.2342 Probability

I would probably distribute 15 with the parentheses 15x 9860 which is 147,900 then you would add 6997+147,900

Find the LCD of the given rational equation: -3/x+2 + 5x/x-1 = x+2/x^2-3x+2
Natali [406]
Answer:

(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2) = x³ -x² -4x + 4.

Explanation:

1) Given equation:

    3             5x            x + 2
- ------- +  -------- =  ---------------
 x + 2        x - 1       x² - 3x + 2

2) So, the denominators are x + 2, x - 1, and x² - 3x + 2

3) The LCD is the product of the common and non common factors raised to the greatest power.

4) x + 2, and x - 1 are already prime factors

5) Factor x² - 3x + 2

x² - 3x + 2 = (x - 2)(x - 1)

6) Then, the factors are x + 2, x - 1, and x - 2, and the LCD is the product of them:
(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2)

7) If you expand the products (distributive property) you get:
x³ -x² -4x + 4.
