Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one 'cubes' the denominator AND the numerator:

(-2/5)^3  = -2/5  * -2/5  * -2/5 =  -8/125

The second one 'cubes' only the denominator:

-2/5^3  = -2 / (5 * 5 * 5) =  - 2 / 125

For every 8 red pens on the teachers desk there are 12 pencils. If she has 60 writing implements, does she have enough red pens
gavmur [86]

Answer:No she does not

Step-by-step explanation:

8pens + 12pecils= 20writing inplements

20+8+12=40

20+8+12=60

You needed 3 sets of 8 pens and 3 sets of 12 pencils to get 60.

3*8=24

24 is less than 60, so she does not have enough pens for 60 students

"if n balls are distributed randomly into k urns, what is the probability that the last urn contains j balls?"
seraphim [82]

The answer relies on whether the balls are different or not. If they are not, which is almost certainly what is intended.


If they are, the perceptive is a bit different. Your expression gives the likelihood that a particular set of j balls goes into the last urn and the other n−j balls into the other urns. But there are (nj) different possible sets of j balls, and each of them the same probability of being the last insides of the last urn, so the total probability of completing up with exactly j balls in the last urn is if the balls are different.
