Whenever you have a decision tree like this, the probability of reaching a specific leaf is the multiplication of the probabilities of each step you have to reach the leaf.

So, in order to reach the "hardcover and nonfiction" leaf, we have to take the "buys hardcover" branch (probability 0.35), and then the "buys nonfiction" branch (probability 0.55).

Given what we said above, the probability for "hardcover and nonfiction" is

$0.35\cdot 0.55=0.1925$

Let’s solve for “a” and “s”.

a = 927 - 45s
a = 792 - 36s

927 - 45s = 792 - 36s
927 - 792 = 45s - 36s
135 = 9s
s = 15
a = 927 - (45 x 15) = 252

Given that x = 7, write an equation that contains two different equivalent expressions each including at least one variable (x)

inna [77]

Well here are two equivalent different expressions of my making that you could use for this question.

f(x) = 2x - 7
g(x) = 3x - 28 / 2

When x = 7, these two different expressions will equate to the same value of 7. If you meant something else let me know, otherwise this is what you should put for your essay-question.
