<span>let's say, you have 2(x+5)=10 
What you  do is multiply the x and the 5 by 2 so it now looks like 
2x+10=10 

The act of multiplying the inside numbers by the number outside the parenthesis is the distributive property. Now using distributive property to remove grouping symbols is  similar 
</span>Lets say you have 18 + {2 + 3 (6 -1*2)} first you would multiply 2by1

= 18 + {2 + 3(6 - 2)} then subrtact 2 from 6 

= 18 + {2 + 3(4)} then multiply 3by 4  take away () grouping signal

= 18 + {2 + 12} then add 2 and 12

= 18 + {14} then take away the last grouping signals 

= 18 + 14 then add 18 and 14 

= 32

Answer: 0.9726

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the distance the tires can run until they wear out.

Given : The top-selling Red and Voss tire is rated 50,000 miles, which means nothing. In fact, the distance the tires can run until they wear out is a normally distributed random variable with a \mu=67,000 miles and a \sigma= 5,200 miles.

Then , the probability that a tire wears out before 60,000 miles :

P(x  [using p-value table for z]

Hence, the probability that a tire wears out before 60,000 miles= 0.9726

A student concludes that for all values of x,x^2+x+1 produces a prime number. Which value of x serves as counterexample to prove
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

j

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values into x² + x + 1 and check if result is prime

x = - 4

(- 4)² - 4 + 1 = 16 - 4 + 1 = 13 ← prime

(- 2)² - 2 + 1 = 4 - 2 + 1 = 3 ← prime

(- 3)² - 3 + 1 = 9 - 3 + 1 = 7 ← prime

4² + 4 + 1 = 16 + 4 + 1 = 21 ← not prime

x = 4 serves as a counterexample to disprove this conclusion
