Hello there!
For this you simply need to give both fractions a common denominator!
The easiest way to do this specific problem would be to make the denominator 12. Why 12? Because 4 x 3 = 12.
So:
1/4 --> ?/12 --> 1 (3) / 12 --> 3/12
2/3 --> ?/12 --> 2 (4) / 12 --> 8/12
Total amount of time means the sum (adding them together).
When adding fractions, you MUST have a common denominator! (Which is what we just did).
So 3/12 + 8/12 = (8+3) / 12 = 11/12 hours
Notice how the denominator stayed the same? When adding/subtracting fractions, the denominator stays the same! :)
Hope this helped!

Answer:
2x – 4 – 1 + x
Step-by-step explanation:
Binomial distribution formula: P(x) = (n k) p^k * (1 - p)^n - k
a) Probability that four parts are defective = 0.01374
P(4 defective) = (25 4) (0.04)^4 * (0.96)^21
P(4 defective) = 0.01374
b) Probability that at least one part is defective = 0.6396
Find the probability that 0 parts are defective and subtract that probability from 1.
P(0 defective) = (25 0) (0.04)^0 * (0.96)^25
P(0 defective) = 0.3604
1 - 0.3604 = 0.6396
c) Probability that 25 parts are defective = approximately 0
P(25 defective) = (25 25) (0.04)^25 * (0.96)^0
P(25 defective) = approximately 0
d) Probability that at most 1 part is defective = 0.7358
Find the probability that 0 and 1 parts are defective and add them together.
P(0 defective) = 0.3604 (from above)
P(1 defective) = (25 1) (0.04)^1 * (0.96)^24
P(1 defective) = 0.3754
P(at most 1 defective) = 0.3604 + 0.3754 = 0.7358
e) Mean = 1 | Standard Deviation = 0.9798
mean = n * p
mean = 25 * 0.04 = 1
stdev = 
stdev = 
= 0.9798
Hope this helps!! :)
|x-5| = 9
x - 5 = 9
x = 14
-(x-5) = 9
-x + 5 = 9
-x = 4
x = -4
answer is B
{-4, 14)
