Answer:

Probability of no one picking up a defective product = 571 / 1540

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of items = 22

non-defective items = 22-3 = 19

Probability of all three picking up non-defective products

= 19/22 * 18/21 * 17/20

= 969/1540

Probability of at least one picking up a defective product

= 1 - 969/1540

= 571/1540

(=0.371, approx.)

12. (2v^3 - v + 8) + (-v^3 + v - 3)<br><br> 14. (4h^3 + 3h + 1) - (-5h^3 + 6h - 2)
Lana71 [14]
12. On addition, you can just combine like terms.
2v^3+(-v^3)=v^3
-v+v cancels each other out
8+(-3)=5
So you have v^3+5

14 On subtraction, you have to remember to distribute the negative sign so after you do that you have:
4h^3+3h+1+5h^3-6h+2
Then you can combine like terms
4h^3+5h^3=9h^3
3h-6h=-3h
1+2=3
So you end up with:
9h^3-3h+3

Hope that helps and feel free to ask any questions.

Let f(x)= x2 - 14 and g(x) = 6-X.<br> Find (fq)(7).
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

(fg)(7) = - 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are:

f(x) =  {x}^{2}  - 14

and

g(x) = 6 - x

We want to to find

(fg)(7)

Note that:

(fg)(x) = f(x) \times g(x)

We substitute the functions to obtain:

(fg)(x) = ( {x}^{2} -1 4 ) \times (6 - x)

We now substitute x=7, to get:

(fg)(7) = ( {7}^{2} -1 4 ) \times (6 - 7)

This implies that

(fg)(7) =( 49-1 4 ) \times (6 - 7)

(fg)(7)  = 35 \times  - 1 =  - 35

3(x-4)=12-2(x-3) slove for x
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 4) = 12 - 2(x - 3)

3x - 12 = 12 - 2x + 6

3x - 12 = 18 - 2x

+2x              + 2x

5x -12 = 18

   + 12   +12

5x = 30

x = 6
