Answer:
(a) Step 2. 9x -12 = 13 +2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property says a factor outside parentheses multiplies each term inside parentheses. It is an error to do addition of the factor, or to miss multiplying a term.
In Step 2 of this "solution", the factor of 3 is erroneously <em>added</em> to each coefficent inside parentheses. It should be <em>multiplied</em>.
Correct Step 2: 9x -12 = 13 +2x
__
The rest of the solution should be ...
Step 3: 9x -2x = 13 +12
Step 4: 7x = 25
Step 5: x = 25/7
___
<em>Check</em>
3(3(25/7) -4) = 8 + 2(25/7) +5
3((75 -28)/7) = 13 +50/7
141/7 = 141/7 . . . . . answer checks OK

Answer:
15/56
Step-by-step explanation:
5 people have a license
3 people don't
? = Probability that first person has a license and second does not
We can divide the problem into two sections, the first being the probability of the first person having a license, and the second section is the probability that the second person doesn't have a license.
P1 = Probability of the first person having a license, there are 5 out of 8 person having a license, thus P1 = 5/8.
P2 = Probability of the second person having a license. There are 3 people not having a license, out of 8-1 = 7 persons available, since one is taken already from the first choice, therefore P2 = 3/7.
P1 and P2 are dependent events, thus P(1,2) = P1 * P2.
P(1,2) = P1 * P1 = 5/8 * 3/7 = 15/56
