Explain why the expression 7•3x is not equal to the expression 21x

Firdavs [7]3 years ago

Working out the expression 7(3ˣ) is first to calculate the value of 3ˣ then multiply the answer to 7.

For example, let x = 2
Then 7(3ˣ) = 7(3²) = 7 × 9 = 63

With the same value of x = 2, calculating 21ˣ = 21² = 441, which isn't the same answer with the expression 7(3ˣ)

just olya [345]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1+25 /100) (1-20/100) (1-50/100)  <1

5/4 x 4/5 x 1/2 <1

Decrease in volume (in percent)

(1+25 /100) (1-20/100) (1-50/100)  x 100

=48.8%

21 Last year Chelsea and Sonya took 236 pictures during Thanksgiving. This year Chelsea and Sonya each took the same amount of p
Leokris [45]

Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.

Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.

For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236

For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).

And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.

As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.

236 + x = 500.

Now we have to isolate the x term.

x = 500 - 236

x = 264.

We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).

2c = 264

c = 132

c = s

s = 132.

Both took 132 pictures this year.

On a lunch counter, there are 3 oranges, 5 apples, and 2 bananas. If 3 pieces of fruit are selected, find the probability that 1
muminat

Answer:

Probability = \frac{1}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Oranges = 3

Apples = 5

Banana = 2

Total = 10

Required

Determine the probability of 1 orange, 1 apple and 1 banana

Since, order is not important:

Probability = P(Orange) * P(Apple) * P(Banana)

Probability = \frac{3}{10} * \frac{5}{9} * \frac{2}{8}

<em>The difference in the numerator is as a result of picking the fruit without replacement</em>

Probability = \frac{30}{720}

Probability = \frac{1}{24}
