Step-by-step explanation:

$4x+(y+x)=180\\\\\text{Solve for}\ x:\\\\4x+y+x=180\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\(4x+x)+y=180\qquad\text{subtract}\ y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\5x=180-y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{180-y}{5}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{180-y}{5}}\\\\\text{Solve for}\ y:\\\\5x+y=180\qquad\text{subtract}\ 5x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\boxed{y=180-5x}$

Answer:

The probability that no more than more than 11 of them need correction for their eyesight is 0.00512

No, 11 is not a significantly low low number of adults requiring eyesight correction .

Step-by-step explanation:

A survey showed that 77% of adults need correction for their eyesight.

If 22 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that no more than more than 11 of them need correction for their eyesight.

n =22

p = 0.77

q = 1-p = 1- 0.77=0.23

We are supposed to find $P(x\leq 11)$

$P(x\leq 11)=P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)+.....+P(x=11)$

Formula : $P(x=r)=^nC_r p^r q^{n-r}$

$P(x\leq 11)=^{22}C_1 (0.77)^1 (0.23)^{22-1}+^{22}C_2 (0.77)^2 (0.23)^{22-2}+^{22}C_3 (0.77)^1 (0.23)^{22-3}+.....+^{22}C_{11} (0.77)^1 (0.23)^{22-11}$
