Answer:

a) P(X = 2) = 0.29

b) P(X < 2) = 0.59

c) P(X ≤ 2) = 0.88

d) P(X > 2) = 0.12

e) P(X = 1 or X = 4) = 0.24

f) P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following probability distribution:

P(X = 0) = 0.41

P(X = 1) = 0.18

P(X = 2) = p

P(X = 3) = 0.06

P(X = 4) = 0.06

a. P(X = 2) =

The sum of all those probabilities is decimal 1. So

0.41 + 0.18 + p + 0.06 + 0.06 = 1

p = 1 - 0.71

p = 0.29

P(X = 2) = 0.29

b. P(X < 2) =

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.41 + 0.18 = 0.59

c. P(X ≤ 2) =

P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.41 + 0.18 + 0.29 = 0.88

d. P(X > 2) =

P(X > 2) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.06 + 0.06 = 0.12.

e. P(X = 1 or X = 4) =

P(X = 1 or X = 4) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 4) = 0.18 + 0.06 = 0.24

f. P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) =

P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.18 + 0.29 + 0.06 + 0.06 = 0.59

Answer:

a) P(X=2)= 0.29

b) P(X<2)= 0.59

c) P(X≤2)= 0.88

d) P(X>2)= 0.12

e) P(X=1 or X=4)= 0.24

f) P(1≤X≤4)= 0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

a) P(X=2)= 1 - P(X=0) - P(X=1) - P(X=3) - P(X=4)= 1-0.41-0.18-0.06-0.06= 0.29

b) P(X<2)= P(X=0) + P(X=1)= 0.41 + 0.18 = 0.59

c) P(X≤2)= P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)=0.41+0.18+0.29= 0.88

d) P(X>2)=P(X=3) + P(X=4)=0.06+0.06= 0.12

e) P(X=1 or X=4)=P(X=1 ∪ X=4) = P(X=1) + P(X=4)=0.18+0.06= 0.24

f) P(1≤X≤4)=P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4)=0.18+0.29+0.06+0.06= 0.59

The graph of a system of equations with the same slope and the same y-intercepts will have no solutions.
Rasek [7]
If 2 equations have the same y-intercept, they are overlapping, which means they have infinite solutions. So there is no way that 2 equations with the same y-intercept will have no solution. Thus your answer is: C)Never.

so, im t trying to find the original price and sale price of a book for example and the amount of discount is 2.80 dollars and t
aliya0001 [1]

Okay, so since the discount is 60% of the price and it comes out to $2.8, we are going to form the following expression, where x is the original price.

60% of x = 2.8

Simply means: 60/100 * x = 2.8

You solve for x, which comes out to $4, which is your original price.
