Answer:

5 is the constant. A constant is a number that does not change throughout the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

17x + 5 = - 3x Equation

Step 2:

17x = - 3x - 5 Subtract 5 on both sides

Step 3:

20x = - 5 Add 3x on both sides

Step 4:

- 5 ÷ 20 Divide

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

17 % of the drivers stopped have invalid licenses

n=24 drivers are stopped

using Binomial distribution

$^nC_r(p)^r(q)^{n-r}$

here p=0.17

q=1-0.17=0.83

(a)none will have valid license i.e. r=0

$P(r=0)^{24}C_0(0.17)^0(0.83)^{24}=(0.83)^{24}=0.0114$

(b)Exactly one have invalid license i.e. r=1

$P(r=1)=^{24}C_1(0.17)^1(0.83)^{23}=24\times 0.17\times (0.83)^{23}$

$=0.0561$

(c)At least 2 will have invalid license i.e. $r\geq 2$

$P(r\geq 2)=1-P(r=0)-P(r=1)$

$P(r\geq 2)=1-0.0114-0.0561$

$P(r\geq 2)=0.932$

On a map, 1 inch equals 15 miles. Two cities are 2 inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the cities?

BabaBlast [244]

Since the scale is 15 miles per inch all you need to do is multiply.
2in(15)=30
The cities are 30 miles apart.
