Distributive property of the product of 127 and 32

1 answer:

7 0

127(32) could be re-written as (130-3)(30+2). To evaluate this, we'd use the distributive property of multiplication: 130(30) + 130(2) - 3(30) -3(2).

That comes out to 3900 + 260 - 90 - 6. Combine the positive terms. Then combine the negative terms. Last, combine the single positive term with the single negative one: 4160 - 96 = ?

Answer:

$\textbf{$P(S \cap T) = \frac{89}{90}$ }\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\textup{Mutually events are events that cannot occur at the same time.}\\\textup{When you toss a coin you get only $head$ or only $tail$ but never both.}\\ \textup{In mathematical terms $P(A) \cup P(B) = 0$, where $A$ and $B$ are mutually exclusive events. }\\\textup{We know the formula:}\\$$ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B) $$\\\textup{When $A$ and $B$ are mutually exclusive, it will simply be:}\\$$ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) $$\\\textup{Now given:}\\ $P(S) = 8/9$ , $P(T) = 1/10$\\$
