Answer:

The probability that neither is available when needed

P(A n B)^{c} = 0.04  

Step-by-step explanation:

A town has 2 fire engines operating independently

Given data  the probability that a specific engine is available when needed is 0.96.

Let A and B are the two events of two fire engines

given  P(A and B) = 0.96 ( given two engines are independent events so you have to select A and B)

Independent events : P( A n B) = P(A) P(B)

The probability that neither is available when needed

P(A n B)^{c} = 1- P(A n B)

P(A n B)^{c} = 1- 0.96 = 0.04

Simplify <br> -4x+2x2-x2+5-3x
Serga [27]

Answer:

9 - 7x - x²

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x+2x2-x²+5-3x = -4x-3x+2x2+5-x²

I arranged the like terms together so it is easier to do the calculations.

-4x-3x+2x2+5-x² = -7x+4+5-x²

Simplify.

-7x+4+5-x² = 9-7x-x²

Answer:

{6x}^{3}  +  {9x}^{2}  - 18x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Expand by distributing sum groups.3x( {2x}^{2}  + 5x - 1) - 3( {2x}^{2}  + 5x - 1)

2. Expand by distributing terms.

{6x}^{3}  +  {15x}^{2}  - 3x - 3( {2x}^{2}  + 5x - 1)

3.Expand by distributing terms.

{6x}^{3}  +  {15x}^{2}  - 3x - ( {6x}^{2}  +  15x - 3)

4. Remove parentheses.

{6x}^{3}  +  {15x}^{2}  - 3x -  {6x}^{2}  - 15x + 3

5. Collect like terms.

{6x}^{3}  +  {15x}^{2}  -  {6x}^{2} ) + ( - 3x - 15x) + 3

6. Simplify.

{6x}^{3}  +  {9x}^{2}  - 18x + 3

Thus. the answer is,

{6x}^{3}  +  {9x}^{2}  - 18x + 3
