Start by doing the binomial expansion of (x+y)^6 where x represents success. This is

(x^6y^0) + 6(x^5y^1) +15(x^4y^2) +20(x^3y^3) +15(x^2y^4) +6(x^1y^5) +(x^0y^6)

We are interested in the x^3y^3 term which represents exactly 3 sucesses. Since the probalbility of sucess and failure are both .5 we should be able to figure this out just using the coefficients of the terms which is

20/64 = .3125 which is 31.25%

Write the answer in scientific notation and in standard form.Round to the appropriate number of significant digits.

Hey there, the answer is C.

After multiplying, you will get .37278. However, it's asking you to consider the significant figure of 3 so you'll have to round it to .373. C has that only option

How do I do this explain

xeze [42]

So you would take 3x1+2 that gives you 5 and you would keep the same denominator and so that would give you 5/3 then do the same to the other side which would give you 5/4 then you would times it and that would give you 2 1/12

2(x-3)-12 = -4<br> How do I solve this equations

deff fn [24]

Answer:

x= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: Multiply the factor (outside number) with the numbers and variable(s) in the box. This results in 2(x-3) = 2x-6

2nd Step: continue the rest of the equation since there are no more brackets left so 2x-6-12=-4

3rd Step: send -12 to the other side of the equation (side changes sign changes) so it will become 2x-6=-4+12 (You are actually supposed to make the variable alone on one side of the equation so that you would be able to calculate its value)

4th step: 2x-6=8 ---> send -6 to the other side as well which will then result in 2x=14

5th step: since 2 is being multiplied by x, when you send it to the other side (to make x alone) you will divide 14 by 2 ( sign of 2 changes from multiplication to division)

Final Step: x=7
