Answer:

The equation is 2x = 5y

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that what is asked is 2/5 of the price for which each of the items are bought

y is the asking price, x is the original

Mathematically,

that would be;

y = 2/5 * x

y = 2x/5

Thus;

2x = 5y

Suppose that a box contains 8 cameras and that 4 of them are defective. A sample of 2 cameras is selected at random. Define the
maria [59]

Answer:

P(x) = 8Cx * p^x * (1 - p)^(8 - r) ; r = 0, 1, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of cameras (n) = 8

Defective cameras = 4

X: number of defective cameras

For a binomial distribution :

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

Probability of success (p) on each trial is the same = (total number of samples / number of defective samples) = 8/4 = 0.5

If 2 samples are chosen at random :

Then, the binomial probability distribution will be :

P(x) = 8Cx * p^x * (1 - p)^(8 - r) ; r = 0, 1, 2
