Combine like terms 4x+3(2x+5b)-4b-2x+6

Ahat [919]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{8x+11b+6}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you have to combine like terms of x and b from one side of the equation.

Combine like terms.

3(2x+5b)+4x-2x-4b+6

Solve.

4x-2x=2x

Rewrite the problem down.

3(2x+5b)+2x-4b+6

Expand the form.

Use a distributive property.

Distributive property:

A(B+C)=AB+AC

3(2x+5b)

Multiply.

3*2x=6x

3*5b=15b

Rewrite the problem.

6x+15b

6x+15b+2x-4b+6

Combine like terms.

6x+2x+15b-4b+6

Add the numbers from left to right.

6x+2x=8x

8x+15b-4b+6

Then, you add again.

15b-4b=11b

= 8x+11b+6

Therefore, the final answer is 8x+11b+6.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

They are even numbers (divisible by two)

Step-by-step explanation:

The number column starts from 2 and is incremented by two for every number in the column. The remainder of the division of each number in the sequence is zero and the result of the division is sequence 1,2,3,4,5,6,7...

Therefore, the numbers in the column are even numbers.

A population of size 320 has a proportion equal to .60 for the characteristic of interest. What are the mean and the standard de

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The answer is c.) 0.6 and 0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given population has a size of 320.

The proportion of population = 0.6

The mean of population, p = 0.6

The mean of sample, $\hat{p}$ = 0.6

Therefore $\hat{q}$ = 1 - $\hat{p}$ = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

The sample size = 12

Therefore the standard deviation of the sample,

$s = \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1 - \hat{p})}{n} } = \sqrt{\frac{0.6 \times 0.4}{12} } = 0.1414$

The mean and the standard deviation for a sample size of 12 are 0.6 and 0.14 respectively.

The answer is c.) 0.6 and 0.14
