With this question, the distributive property means to distribute each term in the left parentheses to each term in the right parentheses.

= (-5 - c)( -1)
multiply each term in left parentheses by each term in right parentheses

= (-5 * -1) + (-c * -1)
multiply in parentheses; negative times negative equals positive

= 5 + c

ANSWER: 5 + c

Hope this helps! :)

When Katya factored 288, she listed these factors: 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 32, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 288. Use a factor rainb

Answer:

Please find a representation of the factor rainbow below.

The missing factors are: 4, 24, and 144

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of a number are those numbers that can divide another number without remainder. In this case where Katya factored 288, it means she listed the numbers that can divide 288 without reminder (factors of 288). However, among the factors she listed, THREE factors are missing.

To get the missing factors, we can use a FACTOR RAINBOW, which is a display of the factors of a number in a rainbow shape. The factors are arranged from smallest to largest number in such a way that the two numbers attached to a line can be multiplied to give the original number.

From the attached factor rainbow (see attached image), it can be observed that factors: 4, 24, and 144 are missing in the list of factors Katya provided.

Which of the following random variables is not discrete?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

b) The annual rainfall in a city

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a discrete variable is one that can only take a finite number of values between any two values of a characteristic and a continuous variable is one that can take an infinite number of values between any two values of a characteristic.

a) Observe that the variable x='classes taken in one semester' can take the values 0,1,2,...,n.

Then the variable x is discrete

b) Observe that the variable x='annual rainfall in a city' can take the values 2in, 1.6in, 5.1 in, 0.1in

Then, the variable x can be take a infinite number of values between two number. So x isn't a discrete variable.

c) The variable x='attendance at a football game' can take the values 3000,5000... n. And never will be a decimal number because There cannot be a personal decimal number. Therefore, x is a discrete variable.

d) The variable x='patients treated at an emergency room in a day' can take the values 1,2,3,...,n. And never will be a decimal number because There cannot be a personal decimal number. Therefore, x is a discrete variable.
