Answer:

a. 0.48

b. 0.14

c. 0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

0 - 2        0.48

3 - 5        0.26

6 - 8        0.12

9- 11        0.09

12- 14       0.05

Based on the above information

a. The probability for fewer than three phobias is

= P( x < 3)

= 0.48

b.  The probability for more than eight phobias is

= P( x >8)

= 0.09 + 0.05  

= 0.14

c. Probability between 3 and 11 phobias is  

= P(3 < x < 11)

= 0.26 + 0.12  + 0.09

= 0.47

rjkz [21]

The Intersecting Secant Theorem says

EC × ED = EB × EA

(x+4)(x+4+1) = (x+1)(x+1+11)

(x+4)(x+5)=(x+1)(x+12)

x^2 + 9x + 20 = x^2 + 13 x + 12

8 = 4x

x = 2

Check:

6(7)=42

3(14)=42, good
