According to the fbi bank crime statistics, there were more than 4,000 bank robberies in the united states in 2015, an increase of 3.9 percent over 2014. the fbi claims that banks have made themselves easy targets by refusing to install clear acrylic partitions, called bandit barriers, that separate bank tellers from the public. according to a special agent with the fbi, "bandit barriers are a great deterrent. we've talked to guys who rob banks, and as soon as they see a bandit barrier, they go find another bank." sources: u. s. department of justice, federal bureau of investigation, "bank crime statistics 2015," and "bank crime statistics 2014"; and richard cowen, "fbi: banks are to blame for rise in robberies," northjersey, march 10, 2009. despite this finding, many banks have been reluctant to install these barriers. wouldn't banks have a strong incentive to install bandit barriers to deter robberies? why, then, do so many banks not do so?

Probably because the costs of doing so.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though the findings are that bandit barriers are a great deterrent to stop bank robberies, the banks would have to spend a lot of money on installing them in all their banks, which would make a great amount of money spent on this and therefore would be losing money.

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.

we can't see all full 4 options, but if this is the full option, than the very left one is correct:

-2/5 * -3 3/4
