so X equals -3 so when you put that in the three becomes positive because of the negative sign on the X and then +5 equals 8

Kai lives 3 kilometers from school, Brea lives 30,000 meters from school, and Cal lives 30,000 centimeters from school. Which st

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

D. Brea lives the farthest from school

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to go about this is to get them all to the same unit. Let's do meters :)

3 kilometers = 3,000 meters (Kai)

30,000 centimeters = 300 meters (Cal)

and then of course 30,000 meters is already in the correct unit (Brea)

Given all of this, you can easily tell that the answer is D

Two containers hold several balls. Once a second, one of the balls is chosen at random and switched to the other container. Afte

natka813 [3]

Answer:

(a) 8 balls

(b) 4 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

$N \to$ Number of balls

For a box, the probability that there are N balls in it is:

$Pr = 0.5^N$

For 2 boxes, it is:

$Pr = 2 * 0.5^N$

From the question, we have:

$\frac{80}{10000} \to$ Favorable outcome

To solve for N, we have:

$2 * 0.5^N = \frac{80}{10000}$

$2 * 0.5^N = 0.008$

Divide both sides by 2

$0.5^N = 0.004$

Take log of both sides

$\log(0.5^N) = \log(0.004)$

Apply law of logarithm

$N\log(0.5) = \log(0.004)$

Make N the subject

$N = \frac{\log(0.004)}{\log(0.5)}$

$N =7.966$

Approximate

$N = 8$

Solving (b): Balls in one of the two boxes.

Here, we assume that each ball will have almost the same number of balls at a given instance;

Hence, we have:

$Balls \approx \frac{N}{2}$

$Balls \approx \frac{8}{2}$

$Balls \approx 4$

<em>4 balls in each box</em>

What is permutation?

Permutation is a technique involving in which a set or number of things can be ordered or arranged. We use permutation to solve and compute answers

We are given that, Josephine has three chemistry books, three history books, and nine statistics books

She has to choose one from each subject

Firstly She has 3 chemistry books

This can be selected in 3 ways

Then She has 3 history books

This can be selected in 3 ways

Ans finally she has 9 statistics books

This can be selected in 9 ways

Hence total ways in which she can select 3 books is 3*3*9= 54 ways

Hence in 54 ways she can choose three books

Help with this math question please

The answer is B x = -4. x= 3

You must factor the equation by find what 2 numbers can multiply to equal -12 and add to equal 1.

-3 and 4 are the two numbers. Now to put it in factor form would be:

(x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

They y also must equal zero.

Since its equals to 0, we must solve for x for the binomial.

x - 3 = 0 ; x = 3

x + 4 = 0 ; x = -4

The answer you get from solving x, is that answer
