Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Overall vertical is visually better, if done correctly

it forces you to "line up" all the common exponents.

The disadvantage is that it usually requires re-writing the problem, and it takes up space.

most problems are presented horizontally, that becomes the issue to locate the common exponents.

in both cases the biggest issue is people forget

that when subtracting "subtracting a negative is like adding a positive"

-5x - (-8x)  = 3x [that is a positive 3x]

or:

     -7x

-    - 10x

-------------

     3x

everyone misses those eventually so you have to watch out for that in both methods

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is given thus:

Suppose that computer literacy among people ages 40 and older is being studied and that the accompanying tables describes the probability distribution for four randomly selected people, where x is the number that are computer literate. Is it unusual to find four computer literates among four randomly selected people?

x      P(x)

0     0.16

1      0.25

2     0.36

3      0.15

4      0.08

  • Yes
  • No

ANSWER:

The odds that this will occur according to the chart are 0.08, or 8%, so although this is unlikely, it's not terribly unusual.

⇒ NO

So from the following we can say it is not unusual to find four (4) computer literates among four randomly selected people.

ok, so P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(0)  = 0.16+0.25+0.36+0.15+0.08 = 1

Whereas the chance of finding four (4) out of four (4) computer iteration is low when compared to other factors.

cheers i hope this helped  !!
