Answer:
x = 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could simplify the given equation first, then solve the resulting 2-step linear equation. It might work better to undo the operations done to the variable.
<h3>Solution</h3>
(5 1/6 -x)(2.7) -5 3/4 = -1 1/4 . . . . . given
(5 1/6) -x)(2.7) = 4 1/2 . . . . . . . add 5 3/4 to both sides
(5 1/6 -x) = 4.5/2.7 = 5/3 . . . divide by 2.7
31/6 -10/6 = x . . . . . . . . . . add x-5/3, use common denominators
21/6 = x = 7/2
x = 3 1/2
The two numbers are 14 and 11
9668
Explanation:
18 ones, 18x1=18
15 hundreds, 15x100 =1500
15 tens, 15x10=150
8 thousands,8x1000=8000
8x1000=800018+1500+150+8000=9668

Answer:
The mean and the standard deviation of the number of students with laptops are 1.11 and 0.836 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of students who have laptops.
The probability of a student having a laptop is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.37.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 30 students is selected.
The event of a student having a laptop is independent of the other students.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.
The mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable <em>X</em> are:

Compute the mean of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

The mean of the random variable <em>X</em> is 1.11.
Compute the standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

The standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> is 0.836.
Here is how I would show the work for this problem
5- (a-4) = 3 (a+2)
5-a+4 = 3*a+3*2
5-a+4 = 3a+6
-a+9 = 3a+6
-a+9+a = 3a+6+a
9 = 4a+6
9-6 = 4a+6-6
3 = 4a
4a = 3
4a/4 = 3/4
a = 3/4
So the solution is the fraction a = 3/4 (in decimal form 0.75)
