Using the properties of operations the given pair of expressions are not equivalent
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that, we have to use the properties of operations to determine if each pair of expressions is equivalent
<em><u>And the two expressions are:</u></em>

Now, we know that, there are four (4) basic properties of operations:
<em>Commutative, Associative, Distributive and Identity. These properties only apply to the operations of addition and multiplication.</em>
So, if we observe we can apply distributive property on 1st expression
The distributive property of multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately, then adding the two products together for the same result as multiplying the first number by the sum.

Here the resulting expression is 2 – x and it is not equivalent to 2 – 2x
Hence, the given two expressions are not equal.
To find h(6), we must plug in 6 into the function.
h(x) = x^2 - 2x - 5
h(6) = 6^2 - 2(6) - 5
= 36 - 12 - 5
= 36 - 17 = 19

I found the dot plots that accompanies this problem.
Based on the plots, the <span>statement that gives is a valid comparison of the number of candies in the bags of the two Brands is:
</span><span>B. The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is greater and less consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A.
Dots in Brand B are scattered and whereas dots in Brand A are not and they are more concentrated between 52 to 55 range. </span>
Answer:
a) 0.8333
b) 0.75
c) 0.8181 or 0.9090
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The probability the visitor selects an authentic painting is
10/12 = 0.8333
b)
Since the opinion of the expert does not depend on your choice, the events are <em>independent</em>, so the probability that the expert says is authentic and it really is, is
0.8333*0.9 = 0.75
c)
If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is not, then there are 11 paintings of which 9 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is
9/11= 0.8181
If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is, then there are 11 paintings of which 10 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is
10/11= 0.9090
