If the product of a number and negative −8 is subtracted from the number, the result is 7 more than the number. find the number.

D. in a discrete probability distribution, the sum of the probabilities for the discrete variables will be > 1. true or false

An oil exploration company currently has two active projects, one in asia and the other in europe. let a be the event that the asian project is successful and b be the event that the european project is successful. suppose that a and b are independent events with p(a) = 0.2 and p(b) = 0.8. (a) if the asian project is not successful, what is the probability that the european project is also not successful? (b) what is the probability that at least one of the two projects will be successful? (c) given that at least one of the two projects is successful, what is the probability that only the asian project is successful? (round your answer to three decimal places.)

For the following equations, find the ratio of a to b. be sure to show all of your work. a. 3a = 6b b. 15a = 5b
