Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in  foreign language=0.20

The probability than an American CEO can not transact business in foreign language=1-0.20=0.80

Total number of American CEOs  chosen=12

a. The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=12C_0(0.20)^0(0.80)^{12}

Using binomial theorem nC_r(1-p)^{n-r}p^r

The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}(0.8)^{12}=(0.8)^{12}

b.The probability that at least two can transact business in a foreign language=1-P(x=0)-p(x=1)=1-((0.8)^{12}+12C_1(0.8)^{11}(0.2))=1-((0.8)^{12}+12(0.8)^{11}}(0.2))

c.The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=12C_{12}(0.8)^0(0.2)^{12}

The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language=\frac{12!}{12!}(0.2)^{12}=(0.2)^{12}

Solve inequality for x -4(2x+4)>8x+64
Mkey [24]

Answer:

x< - \frac{16}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

x 8x_16>8x+64

Add similar elemants:x - 8x= -7x

-7x - 16 > 8x + 64

Add 16 to both sides

-7x- 16 + 16 > 8x + 64 + 16

Simplify

- 7x > 8x + 80

Subtract 8x from both sides

-7x - 8x > 8x + 80 - 8x

Simplify

-15x > 80

Multiply both sides by - 1 ( reverse the inequality)

(-15x) ( - 1) < 80 ( - 1 )

simplify

\frac{15x}{15} < \frac{-80}{15}

blondinia [14]

Answer:x = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

7x + -9x = 3

Combine like terms: 7x + -9x = -2x

-2x = 3

Solving

-2x = 3

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -1.5

Simplifying

x = -1.5
