In Texas, 30% of parolees from prison return to prison within 3 years. Suppose 15 prisoners are released from a Texas prison on

parole. Assume that whether or not one prisoner returns to prison is independent of whether any of the others return to prison. Let the random variable X be the number of parolees out of 15 that return to prison within 3 years. What are the values of the parameters for the binomial random variable X

Answer:

N = 15 ; P = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, the data provided in the question is as follows

The percentage of parolees from prison return to prison = 30%

Number of years = 3 years

Number of prisoners released from a Texas prision is 15

Based on the above information, the value of the parameters for the binomial random variable X is

N = 15 = number of prisoners

And, the P = Percentage = 30% = 0.3

⦁ If we add 5 to the denominator and subtract 5 from the numerator of a fraction, it becomes . If we subtract 3 from the numerat
natima [27]

the complete question is

If we add 5 to the denominator And subtract 5 from the numerator of a fraction ot reduces to 1/7. if we subtract 3 from the numerator and add 3 to its denominator ot reduces to 1/3. find the fraction.


Let

x/y-----------> the fraction


we know that

(x-5)/(y+5)=1/7------>7*(x-5)=(y+5)-----> y=7x-35-5----> y=7x-40----> equation 1

(x-3)/(y+3)=1/3----> 3*(x-3)=y+3----> y=3x-9-3----> y=3x-12------> equation 2


equate equation 1 and equation 2

7x-40=3x-12-----> 7x-3x=40-12------> 4x=28-----> x=7


y=3x-12------> y=3*7-12-----> y=9

x/y=7/9


the answer is

the fraction is 7/9

How do I graph this. I need to find the solution
Sergio039 [100]
To graph y=-7x-3, you're going to make your first coordinate at (-3,0) b/c that is your y-intercept and you will continuously move down 7 and right one.

To graph y=4, you will simply make a horizontal line through the to coordinate (4,0).

Hope that helped.
