Begin inside the brackets always.  Your first simplification will be to distribute the 3 into the parenthesis, resulting in this: 3[x+12x-15]=15x-24.  We can simplify a bit more now inside the brackets like this: 3[13x-15]=15x-24.  Now distribute the 3 to get 39x - 45 = 15x - 24.  That's your answer. The third one out of the 4 you have there.

Dalgliesh the detective fancies himself a shrewd judge of human nature. In careful tests it has been discovered that he is right
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7

Bill and Eugene left the airport at the same time. They traveled in opposite directions. Eugene traveled 21.1 km/h faster than B
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

56.3 kilometers per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We know D = RT

where

D is distance

R is rate (speed)

T is time

Let's Bill's rate be "x". Thus using equation we can write:

D = xt

We know Eugene travelled 21.1 faster than Bill, so Eugene's rate is 21.1 + x. So we can write:

D = (21.1 + x)t

D = 21.1t + xt

Now, putting t = 1 in both since after 1 hour given, we have:

D = x(1)

D = x

and

D = 21.1(1) + x(1)

D = 21.1 + x

We know the sum of both the distance is 133.7, so we can write:

x + 21.1 + x = 133.7

Solving for x:

2x = 133.7 - 21.1

2x = 112.6

x = 112.6 / 2

x = 56.3 km/hr

This is Bill's rate: 56.3 kilometers per hour

What is the simplified value of the exponential expression 16 Superscript one-fourth?
pochemuha

<u>Answer: </u>

The value of the exponential expression 16^{\frac{1}{4}} is 2  

<u>Solution:</u>

16 superscript one-fourth= 16^{\frac{1}{4}}

As per the problem,  

We have to find the value of 16^{\frac{1}{4}}  

16 in terms of 2 can be written as 2\times2\times2\times2

= (2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2)^{\frac{1}{4}}

=\left(2^{4}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}

As per the exponential rule, a^{(m)^{n}}=a^{m \times n}

=2^{4 \times \frac{1}{4}}

Here, 4\times\frac{1}{4}=1

= 2^{1}

= 2

Hence, the value is 2.

Which statements are true?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The first one and the last one are true (Since −6 is 6 units to the left of 0, |−6|=6 and −6 is closer to zero on the number line than −7, so |−6|<|−7|.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is the distance to zero, and it is always positive. That means the positive and negative versions of a number have the same absolute value. That means the first one is true, and the second and third ones are false. For the last one, -6 is closer to zero, so that means it would be true (The absolute value of -6 is 6, and the absolute value of -7 is 7).
