Answer:

B. Start at -7 on the number line and move 11 to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- 7 - (-11) expression

We can add or remove only positive numbers on the number line to get it correct, so we need to open the parenthesis. When evaluated we get:

-7- (-11) = - 7 + 11 = 4

Correct interpretation of of this expression is:

Start at -7 and add 11, thus move 11 points to the right, to get 4 as final point.

Correct choice is:

B. Start at -7 on the number line and move 11 to the right.

Answer:

19.4 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for return on assets (ROA) is

ROA = Net income /Total assets × 100 %

Since assets vary, we use the average of the total assets over the period.

Calculate the average total assets

At beginning of year, total assets = $263 000

At end of year, total assets = $313 000

Average = (313 000 + 263 000)/2

Average = 576 000/2

Average = $288 000

===============

Calculate the ROA

Net income = $56 000

ROA = 56 000/288 000 × 100 %

ROA = 0.194 × 100 %

ROA = 19.4 %

The company’s return on assets is 19.4 %.

Answer: 1/24

---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

A = selects green pair of shorts
B = selects gray t-shirt

P(A) = probability of selecting green shorts
P(A) = (number of green shorts)/(number of shorts total)
P(A) = 1/6
P(B) = probability of selecting gray t-shirt
P(B) = (number of gray t-shirts)/(number of t-shirts total)
P(B) = 1/4

P(A and B) = probability of selecting green shorts AND gray t-shirt
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) ... since A and B are independent events
P(A and B) = (1/6)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = (1*1)/(6*4)
P(A and B) = 1/24

Note: The fraction 1/24 is approximately equal to 0.041667

Answer:

B = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given that the two vertical lines are parallel. That means that the alternate interior angles are equal (they form a Z shape).

So the given is that A = B

A = 5x - 12

B = 2x + 24

Solution

5x - 12 = 2x + 24

5x - 12 = 2x + 24 + 12

5x = 2x + 36

5x - 2x = 36

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

================

B is

B = 2x + 24

B = 2*12 + 24

B = 24 + 24

B = 48
