Answer:

The probability the event that none of them are obese is 0.0352.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Binomial distribution:</h3>

A discrete random variable X having to the set {0,1,2,3....,n} as the spectrum, is said to have binomial distribution with parameters n= the number of trial, and p= probability of successes on an individual trial , if the p.m.f of X is given by,

P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n\\x\end{array}\right) p^x(1-p)^{n-x} for x=0,1,2,...,n

                =0                               elsewhere.

where 0<p<1 and  n an positive integer,

Given that,

The probability of the event that a child living in an urban area in the united state is obese is 20%.

n=Number of children = 15, p= 20%= 0.20.

The probability the event that none of them are obese is

=P(X=0)

=\left(\begin{array}{c}15\\0\end{array}\right) (0.20)^0(1-0.20)^{15-0}

=0.0352

Answer:

- 3x( - 4x + x) - x( - x - 2x) - 4x(4x + 3x) \\  \\    = 12 {x}^{2}  - 3 {x}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  + 2 {x}^{2}  - 16 {x}^{2}  - 12 {x}^{2}  \\  \\  =  - 16{x}^{2}
