X-1= 5x+3x-8

Combine like terms
x-1= 8x-8

Our goal is to isolate x by cancelling out other numbers.
Subtract x from both sides
x-1-x= 8x-x-8
-1= 7x-8

Add 8 to both sides
7=7x

Divide both sides by 7
1=x

Final answer: x=1

A television network is about to telecast a new television show. Before a show is launched, the network airs a pilot episode and
Basile [38]

Answer:

(E) 0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve it using conditional probability.

Let A be the event that a TV show is successful.

P(A) = 0.5

A' be event that the show is unsuccessful

P(A') =0.5

Let B be the event that the response was favorable

P(B) = 0.6

Let B' be the event that the response was unfavorable/

P(B') = 0.4

P(A∩B) = 0.5 and P(A∩B') = 0.3

We need to find new show will be successful if it receives a favorable response.

P(A/B) = \frac{P(A∩B)}{P(B)}

           = 0.5/0.6

           = 0.833
