$\text{In order to find your answer, we would have to solve the equation}\\\\\text{Both sides need to be the same value for it to be true}\\\\\text{Solve:}\\\\1+16=14+2\\\\17=16\\\\\text{Since the numbers are not equal to each other, this equation would}\\\text{be false}\\\\\boxed{\text{False}}$

Answer:

That my friend is FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure something like this out you just need to add the numbers on both sides. If they end up to be the same thing then it is true. If not, its false.

<u />

<u>1+16</u>=14+2

17=<u>14+2</u>

17=16

Nope. 17 does not equal 16. So it is false.

(-14w) - (-3) - (-5w) equals
-9w + 3

or if what you're saying is
-14w - 3 - 5w it equals
-19w - 3

or if what youre saying is
(-14w - 3) - 5w it equals

1.Famous basketball player Michael Jordan had a free throw percentage of 0.83. (He made 83% of his free throw shots.) Assume tha

MissTica

Michael Jordan's Freethrow, the population of the 6 countries and the distribution of the uninsured drivers are illustrations of probabilities

<h3>1. Michael Jordan Freethrow</h3>

The given parameter is:

p = 83% -- the percentage of free throws he made

<u>Probability that he misses his 6th throw </u>

The probability that he misses his 6th throw is:

P = P(He made the first 5 throws) * P(He lost the 6th)

This gives

P = (83%)^5 * (1 - 83%)^1

P = 0.0670

<u>Expected number of miss</u>

The expected number till he misses the first free throw is:

E(x) = np

This gives

E(x) = 6 * 83%

E(x) = 4.98

Approximate

E(x) = 5

Hence, the probability that he misses his 6th throw is 0.0670 and the expected number till he misses the first free throw is 5

<h3>2. Country Populations</h3>

The given parameters are:

Average population = 268.35 million

Standard deviation = 370.43 million

<u>The z-scores for the United States, Egypt, and Mexico</u>

This is calculated as:

z = (x - $\mu$ )/ $\sigma$

So, we have:

US = (332 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

US = 0.17

Egypt = (104 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

Egypt = -0.44

Mexico = (128 million - 268.35 million)/ 370.43 million

Mexico = -0.38

<u>The countries from the smallest to the largest </u>

By comparing the z-score of the countries, the order of the countries are:

Egypt, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, United States and India

The countries are ranked that way because the higher the z-score, the higher the population

<h3>3. Uninsured drivers</h3>

The given parameter is:

p = 12.6% -- the percentage of uninsured drivers

<u>Probability that exactly 5 drivers of 30 are uninsured</u>

This is calculated as:

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

So, we have:

P(5) = 30C5 * (12.6%)^5 * (1 - 12.6%)^(30-5)

Evaluate the product

P(5) = 0.1561

<u>Probability that the next uninsured driver is the 7th</u>

This is calculated as:

P = P(First 6 are insured) * P(7th is unisured)

This gives

P = (1 - 12.6%)^6 * (12.6%)^1

P = 0.0562

The probability that exactly 5 drivers of 30 are uninsured is 0.1561, and the probability that the next uninsured driver is the 7th is 0.0562
