There are only two possible outcomes in the table that satisfy <em>x</em> ≤ -3; either <em>x</em> = -5 or <em>x</em> = -3. Then
P(<em>x</em> ≤ -3) = P(<em>x</em> = -5) + P(<em>x</em> = -3) = 0.17 + 0.13 = 0.3
Bring them to the same denominator and solve for x
(x + 8)(y + 3)
x*(y+3) + 8*(y + 3)
x*y + 3*x + 8*y + 3*8
xy + 3x + 8y + 24
So the correct product is = xy + 3x + 8y + 24, I guess the second expression.
I hope this helps.
