USPshnik [31]3 years ago

Hello!

To answer this question we need to find the factors of -120.

The total set (both negative and postive! ) are the following:

  • 1, -120
  • 2, -60
  • 3, -40
  • 4, -30
  • 5, -24
  • 6, -20
  • 8, -15
  • 10, -12
  • 12, -10
  • 15, -8
  • 20, -6
  • 24, -5
  • 30, -4
  • 40, -3
  • 60, -2
  • 120, -1

After looking over all of these factors, we can see that 10 · -12 is equal to not only -120, but when the multiplication sign is replace by addition, it is equal to -2!

Hope this helps.

The probability of getting heads on a single coin flip is
torisob [31]

Answer:

I hope this helps :D

Step-by-step explanation:

4

It can be done a lot easier: instead of calculating the probability of one head, two heads, three heads, ... one just needs to calculate the probability of no heads: that is simply 0.5

0.5

n

. If you subtract it from 1, you get the probability you want: it's because that's the chance of not no heads, meaning at least one head. So, the formula is: 1−0.5

1

−

0.5

n

More formally: if X is throwing at least one head,

()=1−(¬)

P

(

X

)

=

1

−

P

(

¬

X

)

, where ¬

¬

X

is throwing zero heads.

Solve the inequalities -150x ≥ − 2,400 and -336 ≥ − 21y.
astra-53 [7]
Ok so easy peasy
remember that when divide or multiply by negative, reverse the inequality symbol example
2>3 times -1=
-2<-3 so

-150x<u>></u>-2400
divide both sides by -150
flip sign
<u />x<u><</u>16



-336<u>></u>-21y
divide both sides by -21
flip sign
16<u><</u>y

they seem to have the same solution

x=y<u>></u>16
