Answer:
2x^3 1/4y
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>y^3</u>

subtract the exponents for y
divide 1/4
Answer:
0.095 or 9.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Puncture → P(P) = 0.06
Smashed corner → P(S) = 0.04
Puncture and smashed corner → P(P and S) = 0.005
The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is given by the probability of a puncture, added to the probability of a smashed corner, subtracted by the probability of both:

The probability is 0.095 or 9.5%.
Answer:
(3x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x² + 4x - 4
look for two factors whose product is (3)(-4)=<em>-12</em> and sum is +4
The factors will be +6 and -2
substitute these factors inplace of 4x to get:
3x² - 2x + 6x - 4
then factorize:
x(3x-2)+2(3x-2)
finally we get factors: (3x-2)(x+2)
Since Bill doesn't have enough money to buy <em>more</em> than 1/2 pound of cheese, the most cheese he could buy with his money is half a pound.
