Subtract 7x^2−5xy+8y2 from −2x^2−15xy+9y^2

Digiron [165]

Answer

Subtract $7x^2 -5xy+8y^2$ from $-2x^2 -15xy+9y^2$

then;

$-2x^2 -15xy+9y^2 - (7x^2 -5xy+8y^2)$

Remove the bracket we have;

$-2x^2 -15xy+9y^2 - 7x^2 + 5xy - 8y^2$

Like terms are those terms which have same variable to the same power.

Combine like terms;

$-9x^2 -10xy+y^2$

Therefore, Subtracting $7x^2 -5xy+8y^2$ from $-2x^2 -15xy+9y^2$ we get $-9x^2 -10xy+y^2$

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in a foreign language is .20. Twelve American CEOs are chosen at rand

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The probability that an American CEO can transact business in foreign language=0.20

The probability than an American CEO can not transact business in foreign language= $1-0.20=0.80$

Total number of American CEOs chosen=12

a. The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language= $12C_0(0.20)^0(0.80)^{12}$

Using binomial theorem $nC_r(1-p)^{n-r}p^r$

The probability that none can transact business in a foreign language= $\frac{12!}{0!(12-0)!}(0.8)^{12}=(0.8)^{12}$

b.The probability that at least two can transact business in a foreign language= $1-P(x=0)-p(x=1)=1-((0.8)^{12}+12C_1(0.8)^{11}(0.2))=1-((0.8)^{12}+12(0.8)^{11}}(0.2))$

c.The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language= $12C_{12}(0.8)^0(0.2)^{12}$

The probability that all 12 can transact business in a foreign language= $\frac{12!}{12!}(0.2)^{12}=(0.2)^{12}$

Which angles is supplementary to angle 7

xenn [34]

Answer:

Angle 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 7 and 8 are supplementary because they are both on a straight line.
A straight line is 180*, and the line that forms the angles 7 and 8 splits 180* into those degrees in the angles, so both of those angles add to 180* which makes them supplementary.
