$(x-2)(x^2+3x-5)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\=(x)(x^2)+(x)(3x)+(x)(-5)+(-2)(x^2)+(-2)(3x)+(-2)(-5)\\\\=x^3+3x^2-5x-2x^2-6x+10\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=x^3+(3x^2-2x^2)+(-5x-6x)+10\\\\=\boxed{x^3+x^2-11x+10}$

Mi is about to roll a six-sided number cube. What is the experimental probability that she will roll an even number based on her

Kryger [21]

Answer: The experimental probability that she will roll an even number= $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability for any event is given by6;-

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

In a dice, the total even numbers (2,4,6)= 3

Therefore, the probability that she will roll an even number will be given by:-

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{3}}{\text{6}}=\frac{1}{2}$

Hence, The experimental probability that she will roll an even number= $\frac{1}{2}$
