Answer:

36 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value E(X) = mean of sample = np

Where, p = population proportion, p = 9% = 0.09

n = sample size, = 400

The mean of the number of people with genetic mutation, E(X) = np = (400 * 0.09) = 36

Answer:

x = 3 and y = 2

or

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

first equation (LCM = 3 x 4 x 5 = 60)

(x+2)/5 - (9-x)/3 = (y - 6)/4

12(x+2) - 20(9-x) = 15(y - 6)

12x + 24 - 180 + 20x = 15y - 90

32x - 15y = -90 - 24 + 180

32x - 15y = 66

second equation:

8(x + 2) - (2x + y) = 2(x + 13)

8x + 16 - 2x - y = 2x + 26

6x - y + 16 = 2x + 26

4x - y = 10

Now you have 2 equations:

4x - y = 10  ---> y = 4x - 10

32x - 15y = 66

Substitute   y = 4x - 10 into 32x - 15y = 66

32x - 15(4x - 10) = 66

32x - 60x + 150 = 66

-28x = -84

    x = 3

    y = 4(3) - 10

    y = 12 - 10

    y = 2

Solutions: x = 3 and y = 2
