- I’m assuming the expression implies the following:
(1-n)/(n^2 - 1)
The steps goes as follows:
= -(n-1)/(n^2-1) (factored a negative out)
= -(n-1)/[(n+1)(n-1)] (Factored denominator into a difference of squares, but don’t just blindly accept the fact, expand it and you should get the original denominator)
At this point, the (n-1) terms cancel, as you should know: a real number, besides 0, over itself is 1.
= -1/(n+1) , which is the answer
Note: You could also see it as 1/-(n+1) or 1/(-n-1)

Answer:
4 possible outcomes
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.
The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes
The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.
so
Let
x------> size of the event space
y-----> size of the sample space
so
In this problem
<em>The probability of choose a blue card is
</em>
substitute
<em>The probability of choose a green card is
</em>
substitute
<em>The probability of choose a red card is
</em>
substitute
<em>The probability of choose a yellow card is
</em>
substitute
The sum of the probabilities of the 4 possible outcomes is equal to
----> represent the 100%
The salesman earns $850 per automobile he sells.
Since x represents the amount of automobiles the salesman sells, we can apply the commission as a coefficient to this variable. Therefore, the total commission that the salesman earns can be represented by $850x.
The bonus cheque is only received if the salesman's commission income is <em>at least </em>$6,800. 'at least' means that the salesman can still receive the cheque if his commission is exactly $6,800. The sign that we can use for this situation is the greater than or equal to sign, ≥.
The inequality that shows the commission income needed for the cheque is $850x ≥ $6,800. However, this question asks for the number of automobiles the salesman must sell to get the cheque.
Divide both sides by $850, as that represents his sales from one commission:
x ≥ 8
The inequality x ≥ 8 represents the amount of automobiles the salesman will need to sell to get the bonus cheque.
