Step-by-step explanation:
Just sum the number of cows and buffaloes:
2p^2 - p + 4 + p^2 + p + 1 = 3p^2 +5 animals.
So you have a 50% chance to have a boy vs a girl (1/2). If you want 3 children, that would be 1/3*1/2= 1/6 or 16.67% chance

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
6(x - 2) = 36
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Divide 6 on both sides: x - 2 = 6
- Add 2 on both sides: x = 8
Answer:
c) 2 + 3 = 5 TRUE
d) 2 + (–3) = -1 True
Step-by-step explanation:
When adding integers (positive and negative whole numbers), there are three cases:
- Positive and positive increases and sum is positive. Ex. 4 + 6 = 10
- Positive and negative where you subtract and take the sign of the larger number. Ex. 3 + -8 = -5 or -3 + 8 = 5
- Negative and negative decrease and the sum if negative. Ex. -4 + -6 = -10.
Use these rules to simplify each expression.
a) 2 + (–3) = -1 not 1 FALSE
b) –3 + 2 = -1 not 5 FALSE
c) 2 + 3 = 5 TRUE
d) 2 + (–3) = -1 True
