Answer:

P(x \le 10) = 0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for properly presented question

Required

P(x \le 10)

From the question, we understand that he takes 40 shots (trials)

So:

n = 40

From the attached plot, the number of attempts up to the 10th is:

x \le 10 = 9+6+5+4+4+2+2+0+1+1

x \le 10 = 34

So, we have:

P(x \le 10) = \frac{n(x \le 10)}{n}

P(x \le 10) = \frac{34}{40}

P(x \le 10) = 0.85

You buy the same number of brushes, rollers, and paint cans. Write an expression in simplest form that represents the total amou
Soloha48 [4]

If you buy ' N ' of each item, then you'll pay  3.99N  for brushes,
21.79N  for cans of paint, and  6.89N  for rollers.

The question assures us that you bought the same number of
each item.  So your total bill at the hardware store checkout is

                      3.99N + 21.79N + 6.89N

                 =  N (3.99 + 21.79 + 6.89)

                 =        32.67 N .
