Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – 3 + 3x = – 28

Combine like terms

5x-3 = 28

Add 3 to each side

5x-3+3 = -28+3

5x = -25

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = -25/5

x = -5

step-by-step explanation:

the y value is means the y value is equal to meaning the first part of our equation is y =

10 decreased means 10 minus so the next part of our equation is y = 10 -

Suppose that a recent poll of American households about car ownership found that for households with a car, 39% owned a sedan, 3

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car is 0.1956.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of household owns a sports car.

The probability of X is, P (X) = p = 0.07.

Then the random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with n = 3 and p = 0.07.

The probability function of a binomial distribution is:

$P(X=x) = {n\choose x}p^{x}[1-p]^{n-x}\\$

Compute the probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car:

$P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X$

Thus, the probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car is 0.1956.
