<h3><u>The value of x is equal to 2.</u></h3>

4(x + 1) = 12(3 - x)

<em><u>Distributive property on both sides.</u></em>

4x + 4 = 36 - 12x

<em><u>Add 12x to both sides.</u></em>

16x + 4 = 36

<em><u>Subtract both sides by 4.</u></em>

16x = 32

<em><u>Divide both sides by 16.</u></em>

x = 2

Answer:

0.336 or 33.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

It follows from the question that the probability of a complaint is 35% = 35/100 = 0.35. Let's call this probability, p.

The probability of no complaint is mutually exclusive of p since both are complements. Let's call this q. Then

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65

The distribution is a binomial distribution.

Events of each call are independent.

The probability of 2 calls with complaint out of 5 is

\binom{5}{2}p^2 \timesq^3=10\times0.35^2\times0.65^3 = 0.336 = 33.6\%

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Yes, triangle GYK is similar to triangle BAK.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of each triangle are proportional to each other.

Take the longest side of each triangle. You are comparing line AK with line KY.

The proportion is 15/25.

Now, take the shortest side of each triangle. You are comparing line KB with GK.

The proportion is 6/10.

To determine if the triangles are proportional, we can see if the two proportions are equal to each other:

15/20=6/10

3/5=6/10

Correct! 3/5 equals to 6/10. Therefore, the two triangles are similar because their sides are proportional.

Hope this helps :)
