The answer would be −3 because in the equation you are taking away −1 from −4. A negative minus a negative is basically subtracting with positives.

Step one:

given data

We are told that Jada made 316 gallons of lemonade.

and later served 56gallons of the lemonade

Required

The remaining Lemonade

Step two

We have the total lemonade as 316

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than it's width. Write an equation that will determine the dimensions if the area of the rec

Firdavs [7]

Answer: The equation is W^2 + 4W - 96= 0

{Please note that ^2 means raised to the power of 2}

Step-by-step explanation: We have been given hints as to the measurement of the length and width of the rectangle. The length is given as four more than the width. What that means is that whatever is the width, we simply add four to get the measurement of the length. Therefore if the width is W, then the length is W + 4.

That is,

L = W + 4 and

W = W

Also we have the area given as 96.

Remember that the area of a rectangle is given as

Area = L x W.

In this question, the Area is expressed as

Area = (W + 4) x W

96 = W^2 + 4W

Subtract 96 from both sides of the equation and we have

W^2 + 4W - 96 = 0.

We now have a quadratic equation from which we can determine the dimensions of the rectangle

You have the numbers 1-24 written on slips of paper. If you choose one slip at random, what is the probability that you will not

ra1l [238]

The probability of selecting a number not divisible by 3 is: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two methods to solve the question.

We can find the probability of numbers not divisible by 3
We can find the probability of numbers divisible by 3 and then find the complement of it

We will use the second method:

Given:

There are 24 slips

S = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24}

n(S) = 24

Let A be the event that the slip number is divisible by 3

Then

A = {3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24}

n(A) = 8

The probability of number divisible by 3 is:

$P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)}\\=\frac{8}{24}\\=\frac{1}{3}$

The sum of the probability of an event's occurrence and non-occurrence is 1. So the probability of numbers divisible by 3 will be subtracted from 1 to find the probability of selecting a number not divisible by 3.

The probability of selecting a number not divisible by 3 will be:

$=1-\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{3-1}{3}\\=\frac{2}{3}$

The probability of selecting a number not divisible by 3 is: 2/3
