Answer:
The Pistons lost due to the law of averages
Step-by-step explanation:
Premise 1: The Detroit Pistons are a better all-around team than the San Antonio Spurs
Conclusion 1: The Pistons did not lose [ the 2005 NBA finals ] due to lack of ability.
Premise 2: The Pistons will beat the Spurs two out of three times, and the Spurs will beat one out of three times
Premise 3: The Pistons won the series ' 5th and 6th games — two in a row, and if they had won the final game they would have won three out of three.
Conclusion 2: The Pistons lost due to the law of averages
F(x) = 2|x| + 3x
f(1) = 2|1| + 3(1)
f(1) = 2 + 3
f(1) = 5
$3.42
Take the original price and multiply by 1.14
Explanation: 1.14 comes from the whole (1) of the orange juice at the time plus the percent (14% ---> .14).
Two events are occurring:
1) Rolling a die
Sample Space = {1,2,3,4,5,6}
Total number of outcomes in sample space = 6
Favorable outcomes = Odd number
Number of Favorable outcomes = 3
Probability of getting an odd number = 3/6
2) Tossing a coin
Sample Space = {H, T}
Probability of getting a head= 1/2
The probability of getting odd number and head will be the product of two probabilities, which will be = 3/6 x 1/2 = 3/12
Thus there is 3/12 = 1/4 (0.25 or 25%) probability of getting an odd number and a head in given scenario.
So correct answer is option C
Expanding the given expressions using Foil:
1)(–7x + 4)(–7x + 4) =
2) (–7x + 4)(4 – 7x)=
3)(–7x + 4)(–7x – 4)=
=
4)(–7x + 4)(7x – 4)=
The third option that is (–7x + 4)(–7x – 4) is difference of two squares.
