So what you need to do in an equation like this is first to distribute meaning the number directly outside the parentheses needs to be multiplied by the numbers inside the parentheses:
3x + 6 = 5 then: subtract each side by six
3x = -1 now: divide each side by 3 to get x by itself
x = -1/3

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Mean = 4.8875

Median = 4.6

Mode = 4.5 and 7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the sum of total of data divided by the sample size

Sum total = 1.5 + 4.7 + 6 + 7.7 + 7.7 + 4.5 + 2.5 + 4.5

Sum total = 39.1

Sample size = 8

Mean = 39.1/8

Mean = 4.8875

To get the median we need to first rearrange

1.5, 2.5, 4.5, 4.5, 4.7, 6, 7.7, 7.7

Median = 4.5 + 4.7/2

Median = 4.6

Hence the median is 4.6

Mode is the value occuring the most. Since 4.5 and 7.7 both occurs twice, hence the mode of the data is 4.5 and 7.7

A system with 6 independent components is such that the system will fail if at least one of the individual components fail. the
Ipatiy [6.2K]
The components operate independently, so the probability of "total" system failure is the same as the product of each probability of component failure. That is, if A_i denotes the event that component i fails, then

\mathbb P(A)=\mathbb P(A_1\cup\cdots\cup A_6)=\mathbb P(A_1)\times\cdots\times\mathbb P(A_6)

The A_i are independent and identically distributed, so \mathbb P(A_i)=\mathbb P(A_j) for all i,j. So

\mathbb P(A)=\mathbb P(A_1)^6=0.02^6=6.4\times10^{-11}=0.000000000064
