25x+ -11 = -86

Add 11 to both sides, so to - 11, it cancels out, as well as -86, which leaves you with 25x= -75

Then divide by 25 on both sides, 25x becomes just x, and -75 becomes -3.

Therefore x= -3

25x + (-11) = -86

25x - 11 = -86 | + 11

25x - 11 + 11 = -86 + 11

25x = -75 | ÷ 25

25x ÷ 25 = -75 ÷ 25

x = -3

Answer:

2.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of months (M) = 39 months

Standard deviation (S) = 10 months

According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% of the data is comprised within two standard deviations of the mean (39-20 to 39+20 months), while 99.7% of the data is comprised within two standard deviations of the mean (39-30 to 39+30 months).

Therefore, the percentage of cars still in service from 59 to 69 months is:

$P_{59\ to\ 69}=\frac{P_{9\ to\ 69}-P_{19\ to\ 59}}{2} \\P_{59\ to\ 69}=\frac{99.7-95}{2}\\P_{59\ to\ 69}=2.35\%$
