4x=2/3(x - 2)
4x=2/3x - 4/3 
 4x - 2/3x=4/3
 4x - 2/3x=-4/3 
10/3x=-4/3
x=-4/3 * 3/10 

x=-12/30 
x=- 2/5 
hope this helps

2/3(x - 2) = 4x....distribute thru the parenthesis
2/3x - 4/3 = 4x...subtract 2/3x from both sides
-4/3 = 4x - 2/3x
-4/3 = 12/3x - 2/3x
-4/3 = 10/3x
-4/3 * 3/10 = x
-12/30 = x
- 2/5 = x <==

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

0.0791

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  the probability of white eyes is 1/4 and the probability of red eyes is 3/4, for an individual fly.

Observations are independent

Let A be finding the white eyed fly and B

finding the red eyed fly

P(A) for any random trial= 0.25 and

P(B) = 0.75

Each trial is independent of the other

The probability that at least four flies have to be checked for eye color to observe a white-eyed fly

=Probability for I, II, III and Iv flies to have red eyes * Prob for 5th fly to have white eye

=0.75^4(0.25)\\=0.0791
