The first thing you would need to know is PEMDAS. Also stands for parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction.
This shows the order you should follow when solving problems like these.

This problem states that the first thing that you would look for is parenthesis. There are parenthesis in this statement, but there's a number before the parenthesis. In this case, your first step would be to take -4(3) - -4(-5x)
The first step is using distributive property to -4(3-5x) to get
-4(3) - (-4)-5x

5x + 3. You can also synthetically divide because of the linear divisor

Answer:

The correct answer is D, 0.20. You add the probabilities of either situation occurring and subtract the probability of both of them occurring.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.25 + 0.08 - 0.13 = 0.20

<h2>The missing measures of the angles are:</h2>

$m\angle 1= 60^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 2= 39^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 3= 21^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 4 = 39^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 5 = 21^{\circ}$

<u>Given</u>:

$m\angle Z = 138^{\circ}$

<em><u>Note the following:</u></em>

An equilateral triangle has all its three angles equal to each other. Each angle = $60^{\circ}$ .

This implies that, since $\triangle WXY$ is equilateral, therefore, $m\angle Y = m\angle XWY = m\angle XYW = 60^{\circ}$

Base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent to each other.

This implies that, since $\triangle WZY$ is isosceles, therefore, $m\angle 3 = \angle 5$

Applying the above stated, let's find the measure of each angle:

Find $m\angle 1$

$m\angle 1 = 60^{\circ}$ (an angle in an equilateral triangle equals 60 degrees)

Find $m\angle 2$

$m\angle 2 = 60 - m \angle 3$

$m\angle 2 = 60 -\frac{1}{2}(180 - 138)$ $(Note: \frac{1}{2}(180 - 138) = 1 $ base $ angle $ of $ \triangle WZY)$

$m\angle 2 = 60 -21\\\\m\angle 2 = 39^{\circ}$

Find $m\angle 3$ and $m\angle 5$ (base angles of isosceles triangle WZY)

$m\angle 3 = \frac{1}{2}(180 - 138) (1 $ base $ angle $ of $ \triangle WZY)$

$m\angle 3 = \frac{1}{2}(42) \\\\m\angle3 = 21^{\circ}$

$m\angle3 = m\angle 5$ (base angles of isosceles triangle are congruent)

Therefore,

$m\angle5 = 21^{\circ}$

Find $m\angle 4$

$m\angle 4 = 60 - m\angle 5$

Substitute

$m\angle 4 = 60 - 21\\\\m\angle 4 = 39^{\circ}$

The missing measures of the angles are:

$m\angle 1= 60^{\circ}\\\\ m\angle 2= 39^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 3= 21^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 4 = 39^{\circ}\\\\m\angle 5 = 21^{\circ}$
