The answer is -4 (negative four).

positive four minus positive eight = -4 because subtracting it downwards would be like 4 - 8 with your hands of where u say this, 3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, and -4. 

And another reason its negative is because 4 is lower than 8 so if you're subtracting it that way than its negative, but if u do 8 - 4 than its positive.

A coach purchases 47 hats for his players and their families at a total cost of $302. The cost of a small hat is $5.50. A medium
bazaltina [42]
First, we define variables:
 x: small hat
 y: medium hat
 z: large hat
 We now write the system of equations:
 x + y + z = 47
 5.50x + 6y + 7z = 302
 -3x + y = 0
 We can write the system in matrix form as:
 Ax = b
 Where,
 A = [1  1  1; 5.50  6  7; -3  1  0]
 b = [47;  302;  0]
 x = [x;  y ;  z]
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 6
 y = 18
 z = 23
 Answer:
 
the coach did purchase 23 large hats

A bag of fruit contains 4 apples, 1 plum, 2 apricots, and 3 oranges. Pieces of fruit are drawn twice with replacement. What is P
bezimeni [28]
Since there is replacement, drawings are independent which means that the result of one of them does not affect the others.
Probability of drawing an apple is 4/10 (4 apple out of 10 fruits)
Probability of drawing an apricot is 2/10
Probability on one happening consecutively to the other (thanks to independence) is 4/10*2/10=8/100
Which can be simplified to 2/25
