The value of x is -2

Solution:

Given equation is:

$\frac{1}{3}(x-10) = -4$

We have to solve the given equation

From given,

$\frac{1}{3}(x-10) = -4$

Solve so that "x" is in left side of equation and move the remaining terms to other side of equation

$x - 10 = -4 \times 3\\\\Simplify\\\\x - 10 = -12\\\\Isolate\ for\ x\\\\x = -12 + 10\\\\x = -2$

Thus the value of x is -2

The taxiways and runways of a major airport are carefully monitored to expedite takeoffs and landings and to prevent collisions.

Answer:

18.04% probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

Suppose the mean number of deviations and incursions per year at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is 2.

This means that $\mu = 2$

Find the probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year

This is P(X = 3).

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1804$

18.04% probability that exactly 3 serious deviations and incursions will occur at LAX in a randomly selected year

How can you make a fraction into a whole number?

Assoli18 [71]

See how many times the denominator (bottom # of fraction) can go into the numerator (bottom number of fraction).

If i DOES NOT go in evenly then you will get an answer with a mixed fraction. How many times the denominator goes into the numerator is the whole number in the answer, then the remainder is the new numerator and you keep the same denominator.

the number of songs purchased from an online music store on the first day the store open was 300,000. The number of songs purcha

Arisa [49]

To find this you simply have to look at the formula given. n stands for the number of days. 300,000 is the original. So the only number left is 1.008, but you have to make this a percent by moving the decimal to the right 2 places.
Final answer is 100.8%
