Find the difference 1-(5)​
bazaltina [42]

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.

You can represent an odd integer whith the expression 2n+1, where n is any integer . Write and solve an equation to find three c
oksian1 [2.3K]
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

A rack of 15 billiard balls is shown. If one ball is selected at​ random, determine the odds against it containing a number grea
andre [41]

Using the probability and odds concepts, it is found that the odds against it containing a number greater than or equal to 7 is \frac{2}{3}.

  • 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:

\frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3}

The odds against it containing a number greater than or equal to 7 is \frac{2}{3}.

Vanyuwa [196]

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
