0.5(5-7x)=8-(4x+6)To start distribute the 0.5 and the negative to get 2.5-3.5x=8-4x-6
minus the 6 from the  to get 2.5-3.5x=2-4x
subtract the 2 from both sides (it doesn't matter what side you choose to leave the x on when you solve, you will still get the same answerI) to get 0.5-3.5x=-4x
add the 3.5 to both sides to get 0.5=-7.5x
divide by -7.5 to get x=-0.066666666

Statistics show that about 42% of Americans voted in the previous national election. If three Americans are randomly selected, w
MrRa [10]

Answer:

19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election

Step-by-step explanation:

For each American, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they voted in the previous national election, or they did not. The probability of an American voting in the previous election is independent of other Americans. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

42% of Americans voted in the previous national election.

This means that p = 0.42

Three Americans are randomly selected

This means that n = 3

What is the probability that none of them voted in the last election

This is P(X = 0).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.42)^{0}.(0.58)^{3} = 0.1951

19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election

ollegr [7]

Answer:

280

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a ratio to solve.

Mr. Fraser's class has 20 soccer playing students, and 14 are boys.

14/20 = x/400

Cross multiply. 20x= 5600

Divide by 20 to solve

x= 280
