Use the distributive property    2(A-3) + 5A = 8(A-1)
                                                 2(A) + 2(-3) +5A = 8(A) + 8(-1)
                                                 2A - 6 + 5A = 8A - 8
Combine like terms                  7A - 6 = 8A - 8
isolate the variable                  -7A        -7A
new equation                                -6 = A -8
add 8 to both sides                      +8        +8
answer                                          2 = A

The distance of planet Mercury from the Sun is approximately 5.8 ⋅ 10^7 kilometers, and the distance of planet Venus from the Su
ziro4ka [17]
Distance(Mercury, Sun) = 5.8 x 10^7
distance(Venus, Sun) = 1.1 x 10^8

distance(Venus, Mars) = 1.1 x 10^8 - 5.8 x 10^7

The subtraction is a little easier if you borrow a power of 10 from the 10^8, multiplying 1.1 by 10.

\rm 11.0\times10^7-5.8\times10^7

simply subtract 5.8 from 11.0.
This gives us a result of 5.2 x 10^7.

Hope that makes sense!

A restaurant has an electronic system that randomly selects customers when they pay for their meal to
polet [3.4K]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.81 = 81% probability that NEITHER customer is selected to receive a coupon.

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes, either they receive the coupon, or they do not. The probability of a customer receiving the coupon is independent of any other customer, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • For each customer, 10% probability of receiving a coupon, thus p = 0.1.
  • 2 customers are selected, thus n = 2

The probability that <u>neither receives a coupon is P(X = 0)</u>, thus:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{2} = 0.81

0.81 = 81% probability that NEITHER customer is selected to receive a coupon.
