Hi <span>Spor7tdardLamilokab, this particular equation is a binomial probability equation:

P(X) = </span>( \frac{n}{k}) * p^{k} *(1 - p)^{n-k}

Note that it's not n / k, but rather the notation is n choose k. Brainly software will not allow me to do this, but imagine the n choose k, without the bar, and that the correct notation.
 
Where (\frac{n}{k}) equals  \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} , where n! is n * (n-1) * (n-2) 8 ... 1

So for your particular equation:

P(x \geq 3) =  (\frac{5}{3}) * 0.52^{3} * (1 - .52)^{5-3}

You would repeat the above equation for 4 as well and add that to the computation for 3, since you want the probability that you'll get 3 or more heads.

Solving this produces the answer:

P(x\geq 3) = 0.34308352

You can also solve this with a TI 83 or 84.

To do this, the steps are 2ND | VARS (or DISTR) | BINOMPDF| TRIALS | PROBABILITY | X VALUE

Doing this for 3 and 4 produces the same result:

binompdf(4, 0.52, 3) + binompdf(4, 0.52, 4) = 0.34308352

Liam is setting up folding chairs for a meeting. If he arranges the chairs in 9 row of the same length, he has 3 chairs left ove
EleoNora [17]
<span>Let the number of chairs in a row be x, then the total number of chairs is 9x + 3 = 7x + 19. i.e. 9x + 3 = 7x + 19; 9x - 7x = 19 - 3; 2x = 16 x = 16/2 = 8. Thus there are 8 chairs in each row. Therefore, the total number of chairs is given by 9(8) + 3 = 72 + 3 = 75.I hope that my answer is helpful! Let me know if you need something more :)</span>

For each, you'll use the slope formula 
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For function f, you'll use the two points (1,6) and (2,12) since x ranges from x = 1 to x = 2 for function f

The slope through these two points is 
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (12-6)/(2-1)
m = 6/1
m = 6

-------------------------------------------

For function g, you'll use (2,4) and (3,20)

The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (20-4)/(3-2)
m = 16/1
m = 16

-------------------------------------------

For function h, you'll use (0,-6) and (2,-18). The y coordinates can be found by plugging in x = 0 and x = 2 respectively into h(x)

The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-18-(-6))/(2-0)
m = (-18+6)/(2-0)
m = (-12)/(2)
m = -6

-------------------------------------------

The order from left to right is: h, f, g
