Solution Steps

Step 1: Isolate the Variable Term

To solve the equation \(3x - 1 = 2\), we first need to isolate the term containing the variable \(x\). We do this by adding 1 to both sides of the equation:

\[ 3x - 1 + 1 = 2 + 1 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 3x = 3 \]

Step 2: Solve for \(x\)

Next, we solve for \(x\) by dividing both sides of the equation by 3:

\[ \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{3}{3} \]

This simplifies to:

\[ x = 1 \]

Final Answer

The solution to the equation is \(\boxed{x = 1}\).

Use the binomial probability distribution to answer the following questions. Researchers conducted a study to determine whether there were significant differences in graduation rates between medical students admitted through special programs (such as affirmative action) and medical students admitted through the regular admissions criteria. It was found that the graduation rate was 72% for the medical students admitted through special programs. (a) If 13 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that exactly 10 of them graduated. (b) If 13 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that fewer than 7 of them graduated. (c) If 13 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that more than 5 of them graduated.
