Assume that each of the n trials is independent and that p is the probability of success on a given trial. Use the binomial probability formula to find P(x). n = 16, x=2, p=
1/8
P(x)=
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

2 equivalent expressions to represent the area of a rectangle and the top is n-3 and the side is 2

area of the rectangle = length * width

given length = n - 3

width = 2

replace it in the area

so area of the rectangle = (n-3) *2

= 2(n-3)

one of the expression is 2(n-3)

to get another expression we distribute 2 inside the parenthesis

2(n-3) is 2n - 6

so another expression is 2n - 6

two equivalent expression are

2(n - 3)   , 2n - 6

the answer is $23.63
