Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 1 - 5 = -4...
Since 1 is less than 5, we know that the difference is negative, so we can rewrite this expression as -(5-1).
5 - 1 = 4, so - (5-1) = -4.
Any odd number can be expressed by 2n+1.
For example,
2n+1=111
2n=110
n=110/2=55
means that 111 is 2n+1 for n=55
Thus if an odd number is 2a+1, the next few numbers are as follows:
2a+1, 2a+2, 2a+3, 2a+4, 2a+5
So 2a+1, 2a+3 and 2a+5 are 3 consecutive odd numbers.
Back to our problem:
three consecutive odd numbers whose sum is 63 are:
(2n+1)+(2n+3)+(2n+5)=63
6n+9=63
6n=63-9=54
n=54/6=9
2n+1=2*9+1=18+1=19, the 2 next odd numbers are 21 and 23
Answer: 19, 21, 23
Using the probability and odds concepts, it is found that the odds against it containing a number greater than or equal to 7 is
.
- A probability is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.
- An odd is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of non-desired outcomes</u>.
In the rack, there are 15 balls, numbered from 1 to 15. Of those, <u>6 are less than 7</u>(against it containing a number greater than or equal to 7 is equivalent to it containing a number less than 7), thus:
- There are 6 desired outcomes.
- There are 9 non-desired outcomes.
The odd is:

The odds against it containing a number greater than or equal to 7 is

Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 3^2
2 x 9
18
Answers:
14 + 18 ÷ 2 x 18 – 7 = 169
- 14 + 9 * 18 - 7
- 14 + 162 - 7
- 169
60 – 9 x 8 ÷ 8 x 6 = 6
- 60 - 72 / 8 * 6
- 60 + -216/4
- 60 - 54
- 6
15 x 10 + 12 ÷ 3 + 9 = 163
- 150 + 12 / 3 + 9
- 150 + 4 + 9
- 163
(10 ÷ 5)3 + 100 – 9 x 11 = 7
- 2 * 3 + 100 - 9 * 11
- 6 + 100 - 99
- 7
8 x 4 + 9 – 9 + 18 = 50
- 32 + 9 - 9 + 18
- 41 - 9 + 18
- 32 + 18
- 50
3 x 8 x 2 – 42 + 5 = 11
- 24 * 2 - 42 + 5
- 48 - 42 + 5
- 11
