Answer:
2n-7
Step-by-step explanation:
"7 less than twice a number n"
is the same as
"7 less than (twice a number n)".
I put ( ) around that one part because I want you to focus on that part first.
Twice a number n means 2 times that number n or 2n.
So now we have
"7 less than 2n".
This means 2n-7.
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that each child can only be a boy or a girl, then each child will have a probability of 0.5 or 50% of being either gender. Therefore, since we need to find the probability of at least 2 being boys then we simply need to multiply this probability twice.
0.50 * 0.50 = 0.25 or 25%
Using this data we can say that there is a 25% probability of there being at least 2 boys in the family.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula:
Our first point, A, is at (1, 1) and our second point, B, is at (-2, 8).
Let's let A(1, 1) be (x₁, y₁) and B(-2, 8) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute this into the distance formula:
Subtract:
Square:
Add:
This cannot be simplified.
So, the distance between the two points is √58 or about 7.6 units.
And we're done!
So... where's my cookie :)?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For 
the set of points that include all solutions are 
such that ; then we have 
.
What is important to stress here is that represents all of the solutions, while other points that we are given represent one solution (for example, point (2,-1) is just one solution)
