16t -2(2t+5) =14

distribute the parenthesis first:

16t-4t-10 = 14

combine like terms:

12t - 10 = 14

add 10 to both sides:

12t = 24

divide both sides by 12

t = 24/12

t = 2

Not very good at math but i believe the answer is16t -2(2t+5) =14

distribute the parenthesis first:

16t-4t-10 = 14

combine like terms:

12t - 10 = 14

add 10 to both sides:

12t = 24

divide both sides by 12

t = 24/12

t = 2

Answer:

99.93%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of Independent Events

Given the probability of success of each detector is 0.84 independently of the others, their combined success/failure probability can be computed with the product rule.

We can calculate the required probability by using the binomial distribution, but it's easier to calculate the probability of the negated event an subtract from 1.

We want to know the probability that a least one of the 4 systems detects the occurrence of theft. That probability is the sum of the probabilities that one of them, two of them, three of them or all of them succeed. The negated event is that NONE of them actually detects the theft. Being p the individual probability of success, p=0.84. Being q the probability of failure, q=0.16.

The probability that none of the systems detect the theft is

$P(0)=q^4=0.16^4=0.00065536$

Thus, the probability that at least one of the systems detect the theft is

$P(x\geq1)=1-P(0)=1-0.00065536=0.9993$

That means a 99.93%

ivann1987 [24]

This probability is the same as 1-(two different suited cards). Your first card can be any of the 52 cards. Your second card must be any of the 39 different suited remaining 51 cards. So the answer is 1 - (52/52)(39-51). Note: I assumed there was no replacement.
