Answer:
The probability that conservative party wins all 3 seats is 0.216
The probability that conservative party wins exactly two seats is 0.432
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
The probability of a conservative candidate winning is p=0.6.
The probability of one progressive candidate will win is: 1-0.6=0.4
Part (a) What is the probability that the conservative party wins all three seats?
According to binomial distribution:
P(conservative party wins all 3 seats) = 0.216
Hence, the probability that conservative party wins all 3 seats is 0.216
Part (a) What is the probability that the conservative party wins exactly two seats?
Hence, the probability that conservative party wins exactly two seats is 0.432
Answer: x = 2

Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below.
I've added points D,E,F,G. This helps with labeling the segments and angles, and identifying the proper triangles (to see which are congruent pairs).
Triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA. We can prove this using the AAS congruence theorem. We have AG = AG as the pair of congruent sides, and the congruent pairs of angles are marked in the diagram (specifically the blue pairs of angles and the gray right angle markers)
Since triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA, this means the corresponding pieces segment GF and GE are the same length.
The diagram shows GF = 3x-4, so this means GE = 3x-4 as well.
----------------------
Through similar steps, we can show that triangle GEC is congruent to triangle GDC. We also use AAS here as well.
The congruent triangles lead to GD = GE. So GD = 3x-4. The diagram shows that GD = 6x-10
Since GD is equal to both 3x-4 and 6x-10, this must mean the two expressions are equal.
----------------------
Now let's solve for x
6x-10 = 3x-4
6x-3x = -4+10
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
