\left(\dfrac{2}{5}x+\dfrac{5}{8}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{5}x-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\left(\dfrac{2}{5}x+\dfrac{1}{5}x\right)+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\\\\=\dfrac{2+1}{5}x+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{1\cdot2}{4\cdot2}\right)=\dfrac{3}{5}x+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{2}{8}\right)\\\\=\dfrac{3}{5}x+\dfrac{5-2}{8}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{5}x+\dfrac{3}{8}}

How to use replacement in probability
dolphi86 [110]

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacement means the probability of each trial is the same (the trials are independent).

For example, let's say you have a standard deck of 52 cards, and you want to find the probability of drawing a queen card twice.

There are 4 queens, so the probability on the first draw is 4/52.

You then replace the queen, so there are still 4 queens in the deck.  So the probability on the second draw is still 4/52.

The total probability is the product: 4/52 × 4/52 = 1/169

If you didn't replace the queen after the first draw, there would have been 3 queens in the deck, and the probability on the second draw would have been 3/52.

damaskus [11]

Answer: 17.1

Step-by-step explanation:

If she averages 3.42 kills per game, she should average that for each of the 5 games. You need to multiply 3.42 times 5 for the total of 5 games.

3.42 x 5 = 17,1
