Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Because -5x and 5x both have the same things in it (a full base number and variable), they are like terms. It doesn't matter that one is a negative and the other is not. It's just matters that everything else is the same.

I hope this helps!

What are two ways to determine the probability that two independent events, A and B, will occur together.

stira [4]

Two events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring.

Some other examples of independent events are:

Landing on heads after tossing a coin AND rolling a 5 on a single 6-sided die.
Choosing a marble from a jar AND landing on heads after tossing a coin.

The events A and B are independent if any one of the following three equivalent conditions hold:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A)P(B)

P(A|B) = P(A) B has no effect on A

P(B|A) = P(B) A has no effect on B

Intuitively, two events are independent if the occurrence of one has no effect at all on the probability of the other.

To find the probability of two independent events that occur in sequence, find the probability of each event occurring separately, and then multiply the probabilities.

Multiplication Rule: When two events, A and B, are independent, the probability of both occurring is:

P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

To test whether two events A and B are independent, calculate P(A), P(B), and P(A ∩ B), and then check whether P(A ∩ B) equals P(A)P(B). If they are equal, A and B are independent; if not, they are dependent.

Look at the scatter plot. Which of these equations is the best representation of the trend line?

dusya [7]

B.
$y = \frac{1}{4} x - 2$

because of how the slope (Y over X) is 1/4 and the intercept is (0, 2).

The slope is positive because the line moves to the right.

(for me I remember that /it hurts \doesn't. The line is you moving your arm.)

PLEASE HELP. <br> I know how to do these but I'm stuck on this one.

Steve ran 11 miles

let the distance Steve ran be x

Then distance Kevin ran is x + 4 ( 4 miles more than Steve )

x + x + 4 = 26 ( the sum of their distance is 26 )

2x + 4 = 26 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11
