<span>An equation that is satisfied for every value of the variable for which both sides are defined is called an identity.

For example:
Given the equation
3x + 4 = x + 2(x + 2)

Notice that for any value of x you use, the equation is true.

Thus, this type of equation is called an identity.

A shipment of 20 similar laptop computers to a retail outlet contains 3 that are defective. If a school makes a random purchase

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

P(X=0) = 0.7158

P(X=1) = 0.2684

P(X=2) =0.0158

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of defective laptops = 3

Number of normal laptops = 17

If the school chooses 2 laptops from this lot, the number of defectives (X) could be 0, 1, or 2.

For zero defectives:

$P(X=0) = \frac{17}{20} *\frac{16}{19}\\P(X=0) = 0.7158$

For one defective:

$P(X=1) = \frac{17}{20} *\frac{3}{19}+\frac{3}{20} *\frac{17}{19}\\P(X=1) = 0.2684$

For two defectives:

$P(X=2) = \frac{3}{20} *\frac{2}{19}\\P(X=2) = 0.0158$

A basketball player made 80 baskets in a season. Of these, 20% were three-point shots. Determine the number of three-point shots

Amanda [17]

The answer is 16 three-point shots.
The way to do this is by doing 100 / 20 which is 5, and then you would do the total (80) divided by 5 which is 16
