Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate is 15% for every 3 years. To find the interest rate subtract the money from the total. Then, divide the total from the difference. Now subtract the quotient from 100 and multiply it by 100 to fin the percentage.

3000 - 450 = 2550

2550 ÷ 3000 = 0.85

100 - 0.85 = 0.15

0.15 x 100 = 15%

60c+80=287

Let c stand for the cost of one square foot. with 60 square feet you get 60c. then add 80 for the installation fee.

Answer:

Probability distribution for x:

$P(x=0)=0.3644\\\\P(x=1)=0.4373\\\\P(x=2)=0.1749\\\\P(x=3)=0.0233\\\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model the number of defective sets in the group of TV sets (variable x) as a binomial variable, with sample size=3 and probability of success p=2/7≈0.2857.

The probability of k defective sets in the group is:

$P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}$

So, we have this probabilty distribution for x:

$P(x=0) = \dbinom{3}{0} p^{0}q^{3}=1*1*0.3644=0.3644\\\\\\P(x=1) = \dbinom{3}{1} p^{1}q^{2}=3*0.2857*0.5102=0.4373\\\\\\P(x=2) = \dbinom{3}{2} p^{2}q^{1}=3*0.0816*0.7143=0.1749\\\\\\P(x=3) = \dbinom{3}{3} p^{3}q^{0}=1*0.0233*1=0.0233\\\\\\$
