-6x - 5 = 6x + 1
      +5          +5

                          -6x = 6x + 6
                           -6x   -6x

-12x = 6
/-12     /-12

                x = 6/12

                 or

   x = -1/2~~~

1) Equation
−6x−5=6x+1

2) Subtract 6x from both sides
.−6x−5−6x=6x+1−6x
−12x−5=1

3) Add 5 to both sides.
−12x−5+5=1+5
−12x=6

4) Divide both sides by -12
. $\frac{-12x}{12}$ = $\frac{6}{-12}$
x = $\frac{-1}{2}$

5) Answer =
x = $\frac{-1}{2}$

1. An LG Dishwasher, which costs $800, has a 20% chance of needing to be replaced in the first 2 years of purchase. A two-year e

yKpoI14uk [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the extended warrant is calculated as follow.

Value of Waranty

= 800 x 20% − 112.10

= 800 x 20/100 − 112.10

= 47.9

The expected value of the extended warranty assuming it is replaced in the first 2 years is given as follow.

Expected value=800-112.10=>687.90

Therefore, required expected value of extended warranty is 687.90

Given information:

Number of Trials (n) = 15

Probability of Success (p) = 0.10

a) Let X represents the number of left-handed people.

b) The probability distribution follows binomial distribution.

X ∼ Binomial distribution

The probability distribution is given as follow.

P(X = x) = ^nCx(p)^x(1 − p)^n − x

c)The histogram is given as follow. (See attachment)

d) The shape of histogram is skewed right.

e) The mean is calculated as follow.

Mean

=n x p

= 15 x 0.10

= 1.5

f) The variance is calculated as follow.

Variance

= n x p x q

= 15 x 0.10 x 0.90

= 1.35

g) The standard deviation is calculated as follow.

Standard deviation

=√n x p x q

=√15 x 0.10 x 0.90

= 1.162

On Monday, a concession stand manager ordered 985 popcorn bags and 1010 paper food trays. She splits the bags and trays evenly a

Mila [183]

Answer:

197 popcorn bags
202 food trays

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the numbers are split evenly 5 ways, each stand gets 1/5 of the total:

(985 bags)/5 = 197 bags

(1010 trays)/5 = 202 trays

Each concession stand receives 197 popcorn bags and 202 food trays.
