m-x=p (- 2x on both sides)
-x=p-m (- m on both sides)
answer: x=-p+m (divide -1 on both side)

Complete question :
It is estimated 28% of all adults in United States invest in stocks and that 85% of U.S. adults have investments in fixed income instruments (savings accounts, bonds, etc.). It is also estimated that 26% of U.S. adults have investments in both stocks and fixed income instruments. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places. (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?
Answer:
0.929 ; 0.306
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information:
P(stock) = P(s) = 28% = 0.28
P(fixed income) = P(f) = 0.85
P(stock and fixed income) = p(SnF) = 26%
a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen stock investor also invests in fixed income instruments? Round your answer to decimal places.
P(F|S) = p(FnS) / p(s)
= 0.26 / 0.28
= 0.9285
= 0.929
(b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult invests in stocks, given that s/he invests in fixed income instruments?
P(s|f) = p(SnF) / p(f)
P(S|F) = 0.26 / 0.85 = 0.3058823
P(S¦F) = 0.306 (to 3 decimal places)
Let the number of comic books be X
if we add 14 to X = 24
so we will find the value of X to get half initial number of comic books William had.
14+X=24
X=24-14
X=10
so the total innitial number of comic books William had is 10+10=20 books.
Simplifying
-16 + 23 (-4) + -3
Multiply 23 x -4
Add -16 + -92=-108
Add -108-3= -111 <------Answer

(2+3) 1/6 + 1/4=
5 5/12
