Which problems result in a positive number? Choose all answers that are correct. A. –4.6 • 1.6 B. –10 • (–5.2) C. 8.4 ÷ 2 D.

1 answer:

8 0

Well you can automatically eliminate, A, because when you multiply one number that's positive and another number that's negative the result is always going to be negative.
However, when you multiply two negatives the result is always positive!

So, the only ones up there that would result in a positive number is B and C

***D. was not posted so I cannot determine that one!

Is 0.99 an repeating number

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0.99 is not a repeating decimal because it terminates, meaning that it "ends". We know this because there are no more digits after 9 and there is no "..." at the end of the decimal.

What is the coefficient of the third term in the binomial expansion of (a + b)6? 1 15 20 90

Sholpan [36]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

(r+1)th term of $(a+b)^n$ is given by:-

$T_{r+1}=\ ^nC_r(a)^{n-r}b^r$

For $(a+b)^6$ , n= 6

$T_3=T_{2+1}=\ ^6C_2(a)^{6-2}(b)^2\\\\$

$=\ \dfrac{6!}{4!2!}a^4b^2\ \ \ [^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}]\\\\=\dfrac{6\times5\times4!}{4!\times2}a^4b^2\\\\=3\times5a^4b^2\\\\ =15a^4b^2$

Hence, the coefficient of the third term in the binomial expansion of $(a+b)^6$ is 15.

Subjects for the next presidential election poll are contacted using telephone numbers in which the last four digits are randoml

sammy [17]

Answer:

probability at least one zero is 0.3439

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

last four digits = randomly selected

to find out

probability that for one such phone number the last four digits include at least one 0.

solution

we know there are total 10 digit

so we first find probability of non zero digit i.e.

Probability ( non zero ) = 9 /10 = 0.9

and now we find probability of none of digit zero only event happen n= 4 time in a row by multiplication rules i.e

Probability ( none zero in 4 digit ) = $0.9^{n}$

Probability ( none zero in 4 digit ) = $0.9^{4}$

Probability ( none zero in 4 digit ) = 0.6561

so we can say probability at least one zero = 1 - Probability ( none zero in 4 digit )

probability at least one zero = 1 - 0.6561

probability at least one zero is 0.3439

A linear model projects that the number of bachelor's degrees awarded in the United State will increase by 19,500 each year. In

vichka [17]

Let the number of years after 2001 be x, then
1280000 + 19500x = 1700000
19500x = 1700000 - 1280000 = 420,000
x = 420000/19500 = 22 years.
x = 22 years.
