X = 4/5
y = 1/3
x+y = 4/5 + 1/3
x+y = 12/15 + 5/15
x+y = 17/15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$10[2x-4]=100\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}10\\\frac{10\left(2x-4\right)}{10}=\frac{100}{10}\\\\Simplify\\2x -4=10\\\\\mathrm{Add\:}4\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}\\2x-4+4=10+4\\\\Simplify\\2x =14\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{14}{2}\\\\Simplify\\x = 7$

John's free throw shooting percentage is 87%. If John shoots 12 free throws in the course of a game, what is the probability he

suter [353]

Answer:

0.2771

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability question. "Makes" is what some writers call a "success." In the binomial probability distribution, the probability of r successes in n trials is

$\binom{n}{r}p^r(1-p)^{n-r}$

p is the probability of "success." $\binom{n}{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

In this problem, n = 12, r = 10, p = 0.87 (the 87%).

The probability of exactly 10 made shots out of 12 attempted is

$\binom{12}{10}(0.87)^10(1-0.87)^2 =66(0.87^10)(0.13)^2 \approx 0.2771$

What fraction would you add to 29/6 to make 4

Zigmanuir [339]

Keeping in mind that 29/6 is greater than 4, is actually 4 and 5/6, so the amount we'll "add" will be a negative one.

$\bf \cfrac{29}{6}+x=4\implies x=4-\cfrac{29}{6}\implies x=\cfrac{4}{1}-\cfrac{29}{6}\implies x=\cfrac{(6)4-(1)29}{6}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{24-29}{6}\implies x=\cfrac{-5}{6}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{29}{6}+\left( -\cfrac{5}{6} \right)=4$
