Answer:

  n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminating parentheses, you have ...

  2n +6 -6n = 14

Combining terms and subtracting 6, you get ...

  -4n = 8

Dividing by the coefficient of n gives ...

  n = -2

_____

<em><u>Check</u></em>

  2(-2) +3(2 -2(-2)) = 14

  -4 +3(2+4) = 14

  -4 +3(6) = 14

  -4 +18 = 14 . . . . answer checks OK

A product is made up of three parts that act independently of each other. If any of the parts is defective, the product is defec
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The probability that a product is defective is 0.2733.

Step-by-step explanation:

A product consists of 3 parts. If any one of the part is defective the whole product is considered as defective.

The probability of the 3 parts being defective are:

P (Part 1 is defective) = 0.05

P (part 2 is defective) = 0.10 P (part 3 is defective) = 0.15

Compute the probability that a product is defective as follows:

P (Defective product) = 1 - P (non-defective product)

= 1 - P (None of the 3 parts are defective)

= 1 - P (Part 1 not defective) × P (Part 2 not defective) × P (Part 1 not defective)

=1-[(1-0.05)\times(1-0.10)\times (1-0.15)]\\=1-[0.95\times0.90\times0.85]\\=1-0.72675\\=0.27325\\\approx0.2733

Thus, the probability that a product is defective is 0.2733.

snow_tiger [21]
Both define y, so they are equivalent.

5x-9=2x+6
3x-9=6
3x=15
x=5

Then plug in x into any of the equations
y=2(5)+6
y=10+6
y=16
