If you put brackets around (2+1), your method of working is:
1) 15-4*(2+1)=3
2) 15-4*3=3
3) 15-12=3
You don't need any more brackets, as the BIDMAS (brackets, Indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) rule does the rest of the job for you.
The answer is therefore: 15-4*(2+1)=3
Answer:
8 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to find the time,
, when
, that is, when the height of the object above the ground is 0 feet.
Substituting
feet per second and
gives the quadratic:

Since 128 is divisible by 16, it can be reduced to
.
We must now solve for
.
We can easily see that one answer to the equation is 0,
(we need not concern ourselves with the 16 outside of the parenthesis as in the equation above, since 16 multiplied by 0 is 0). However this is the time the object is released into the air.
The second answer,
is also easy to see by inspection:
.
Therefore the object lands 8 seconds after it is thrown.
Answer:
17/3 or in decimal form, 5.67 gallons for each person.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 34 gallons of fruit punch will be shared equally with 6 people, just divide 34 by 6.
34/6 = 17/3 or in decimal form, 5.67 gallons for each person.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The experimental probability is based on what already happened.
So we see that both of them found a total of 11 + 3 + 36 + 40 + 134 = 224 coins.
The coins that are worth MORE THAN 10 cents are 11 quarters and 3 fifty-cent pieces (we exclude dimes because we want MORE THAN 10 cents, NOT 10 cents exactly).
So 11 + 3 = 14 coins are worth MORE THAN 10.
So the probability of finding one worth more than 10 cents next is 14/224 = 1/16
I think the answer would bee 20.666.........
Im really sorry if i'm, wrong hope this helps
