$- 4 \times ( \frac{2}{3} + 3x)$
Multiply each term in the parentheses, namely 2/3 and 3x, by the only term outside of the parentheses, -4.

Each of the resulting products becomes a new term in the addition.

$( - 4 \times \frac{2}{3} ) + ( - 4 \times 3x)$
$( - \frac{8}{3} ) + ( - 12x)$
$- \frac{8}{3} - 12x$
You may choose to keep the answer this way, or continue to change the improper fraction into a proper fraction. A lot of teachers also prefer to have the highest degree terms (terms that have variables with the highest powers) on the left.

$- 12x - 2 \frac{2}{3}$

A man retires at age 50 with $605,000 in savings. He spends his savings at a steady rate, and after 6 years of retirement, he ha

givi [52]

Since it states that he "spends his savings at a steady rate," we can assume this is a linear equation.

What we know is that he started with $605,000 and after 6 years, he used $300,000. So, we just subtract what he had originally by what he used and get $305,000. We can now make the equation as follows:

300,000=6x, where x is the amount of money he spent in one year. This equation simplifies to x=50,000, which is the amount of money he spent in one year.

Since the question asks us to tell how long it will take him to reach $100,000 in savings, we can make the equation using previous value we have found:

100,000=305,000-50,000x, where x is the number of years passed.

So, this equation solves to -205,000=-50,000x, or x=4.1

I'm not sure how you want to express your answer, but it took him 4.1 years on top of the 6 years already passed to reach $100,000. This mean 10.1 years in total.

Hope this helps!

Suppose that a die is rolled twice. What are the possible values that the following random variables can take on:(a) the maximum

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer and explanation:

Given : Suppose that a die is rolled twice.

The sample space form is

(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

To find : What are the possible values that the following random variables can take on

(a) The maximum value to appear in the two rolls;

The possible values are 1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6.

b) The minimum value to appear in the two rolls;

The possible values are 1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6.

c) The sum of the two rolls;

The possible values are 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9; 10; 11; 12.

d) The value of the first roll minus the value of the second roll.

The possible values are -5; -4; -3; -2; -1; 0; 1; 2; 3; 4; 5.
