Step-by-step explanation:

Growth in population each year = 3%(1500)

= 3/100 × 1500

= 3 × 15

= 45

Therefore, the growth in population in 6 years

= 6 × 3%(1500)

= 6 × 45

= 270

Hence, the population after 6 years = 1500 + 270

= 1770

Factor & solve please helppp my brain is mush i don’t remember anything

This equation uses y and x so it cannot be factorised.

Let’s try the equation y^2 - 12y + 36 = 0

Look for two factors of 36 that add to -12.
This would be -6 and -6

(y - 6)(y - 6) = 0
(y - 6) must equal 0
y = 6

Remainder of question:

Find the probability distribution of x

Answer:

The random variable x is defined as: X = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

The probability distribution of X:

P(X = 0) = 0.656

P(X = 1) = 0.2916

P(X= 2) = 0.0486

P(X=3) = 0.0036

P(X = 4) = 0.0001

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size, n = 4

Random variable, X = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

10% (0.1) of the homeowners are insured against earthquake, p = 0.1

Proportion of homeowners who are not insured against earthquake, q = 1 - 0.1

q = 0.9

Probability distribution of x,

$P(X = r) = ^nC_r *p^r q^{n-r} \\\\P(X= 0) =(^4C_0 *p^1 q^4 )\\P(X=0) = (^4C_0 *0.1^0 0.9^4 ) = 0.656\\P(X= 1)= (^4C_1 *p^1 q^3 )\\P(X=1) = (^4C_1 *0.1^1 0.9^3 ) = 0.2916\\P(X= 2)=( ^4C_2 *p^2 q^2) \\P(X=2) = (^4C_2 *0.1^2 0.9^2 ) = 0.0486\\P(X= 3) = (^4C_3 *p^3 q^3) \\ P(X=3) = (^4C_3 *0.1^3 0.9^1 ) = 0.0036\\P(X= 4) = (^4C_4 *p^4 q^0 )\\ P(X=4) =(^4C_4 *0.1^4 0.9^0 ) = 0.0001$
