Your answer would be the second option, (3a - 4)(a + 3).

We can see that this is the correct answer as if we expand it using FOIL, we get 3a² + 5a - 12:

(3a × a) + (3a × 3) + (-4 × a) + (-4 × 3) = 3a² + 9a - 4a - 12
= 3a² + 5a - 12.

I hope this helps!

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

0.5676

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given these informations from this question ,

probability of 4% = 0.04

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.04 = 0.96

Sample size n = 60

We solve further by Using binomial probability formula,

P(X = x) = (nCx)*px*(1 - p)^n - x

We have:

(60C0)x 0.04⁰x(0.96⁶⁰+(60C1)x0.04¹x(0.96)⁵⁹+(60C2)x0.04²x (0.96)⁵⁸

From this we would get the probability to be = 0.5676
