Answer:
0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of independent events:
If three events, A, B and C are independent, the probability of all happening is the multiplication of the probabilities of each happening, that is:
The percentage of people under the age of 18 was 23.5% in New York City, 25.8% in Chicago, and 26% in Los Angeles.
This means that
If one person is selected from each city, what is the probability that all of them are under 18?
Since the three people are independent:
0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.

====================================================
Explanation:
The weird looking E symbol is the greek uppercase letter sigma. It refers to a sum.
It tells us to add up terms in the form (-1)^n*(3n+2) where n is an integer ranging from n = 1 to n = 4.
------------------
If n = 1, then we have
(-1)^n*(3n+2) = (-1)^1*(3*1+2) = -5
Let A = -5 as we'll use it later.
------------------
If n = 2, then
(-1)^n*(3n+2) = (-1)^2*(3*2+2) = 8
Let B = 8 since we'll use this later as well
------------------
If n = 3, then
(-1)^n*(3n+2) = (-1)^3*(3*3+2) = -11
Let C = -11
-------------------
If n = 4, then
(-1)^n*(3n+2) = (-1)^4*(3*4+2) = 14
Let D = 14.
--------------------
We'll add up the values of A,B,C,D to get the final answer
A+B+C+D = -5+8+(-11)+14 = 6
This means that
