Why isn’t there a commutative property for division?

Hello! 

To try to answer your question in short, to adhere to the cumulative property switching the numbers must equal the same thing. ie. 2+3=5 same as 3+2=5
and 3*2=6 same as 2*3=6

this breaks down though for subtraction and division. 3-2=1 but 2-3=-1 and same for division, 4/2=2 but 2/4= 1/2  

I hope this helps! Any questions please just ask! Thank you so much!

Answer:

$19 for one package of oatmeal cookie dough and $14 for one package of chocolate chip cookie dough

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to set up two equations: one that shows how much money Mike made and one that shows how much money Shawna made.  

Let's make a = price for one chocolate chip cookie dough and b = price for one oatmeal cookie dough.

First equation for Mike: 12a + 3b = 225

Second equation for Shawna: 6a + 11b = 293

Next we isolate b from Mike's equation: b = 75 - 4a

Then we plug this equation into Shawna's equation and we get:

6a + 11(75 - 4a) = 293

Solving for a would get us 14, or $14 for one chocolate chip cookie dough.

If we plug 14 = a into Mike's original equation and solve for b, we get b = 19, or $19 for one oatmeal cookie dough.

Hope this helped!

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

"differential selection"

Step-by-step explanation:

If your friend took the test twice and passed both times with a score above 90% then the minor difference in price is most likely due to "differential selection". The first test had  questions that he had a little more experience in solving, while the second time he was most likely given a couple questions that he wasn't as prepared for as he was the first time. This is most likely the cause for the difference in percentiles.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in
lukranit [14]

Answer: \dfrac{26}{27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.

Proportion of success : p=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Sample size taken by customs official : n= 3

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.

Using Binomial probability formula :-

P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics =P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)

1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}

Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = \dfrac{26}{27}
