Answer: $5xm+5xn$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is necessary to remember the following:

1) The Distributive Property states the following:

$a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\a(b-c)=ab-ac$

2) The multiplication of signs:

$(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-$

Knowing this, and having the following expression given in the exercise:

$5x(m+n)$

You can apply the Distributive property multiplying $m$ and $n$ , which are inside the parentheses, by $5x$ .

So, you get the following result:

$=(5x)(m)+(5x)(n)=5xm+5xn$

For a data set of weights (pounds) and highway fuel consumption amounts (mpg) of eight types of automobile, the linear correl

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The P value indicates that the probability of a linear correlation coefficient that is at least as extreme is 0.3% which is not significant (at α = 0.05), so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between weight and consumption. of highway fuel in cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the correlation coefficient shows the relationship between the weights and amounts of road fuel consumption of seven types of car, now the P value establishes the importance of this relationship. If the p-value is lower than a significance level (for example, 0.05), then the relationship is said to be significant, otherwise it would not be so, this case being 0.003 not significant.

The statement would be the following:

Consider the expression 40+24 . Find the greatest common factor of the two numbers and use the distributive property to rewrite

Margarita [4]

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{8(5+3)}}$

The greatest common factor of 40 and 24 is 8.

8 goes into 40 5 times:

8 goes into 24 3 times.

We can rewrite this expression for distribution using the amount of times 8 goes into both numbers:

8(5 + 3)

Using this, we get:

8(5) + 8(3) = 40 + 24.

An algebra class has 16 students and 16 desks. For the sake of variety, students change the seating arrangement each day. How ma

sineoko [7]

Answer: a) 2092278989 b) 576, c) $\dfrac{576}{2092278989}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students = 16

Number of desks = 16

a) How many days must pass before the class must repeat a seating arrangement?

$16!=2092278989$

If the number of rows = 4

b) How many seating arrangements are there that put Larry, Moe, Curly, and Shemp in the front seats?

$4!\times 4!\\\\=24\times 24\\\\=576$

c) How many seating arrangements are there that put Larry, Moe, Curly, and Shemp in the front seats?

$\dfrac{576}{2092278989}$

Hence, a) 2092278989 b) 576, c) $\dfrac{576}{2092278989}$

A pair of events are observed to have coordinates (0s,0m) and (50.0s,9.00×109m) in a frame s. what is the proper time interval δ

Ludmilka [50]

To find out time interval δt we need to substract initial time from the final time. In this question first number in the coordinates representes time:

δt=50 - 0
δt= 50s

TIme interval is 50s.
