Answer:

<h3>By using the distributive property the matched equivalent expressions are</h3><h3>1) -7(-4+x) =28-7x </h3><h3>2) -7(4-x) =-28+7x </h3><h3>3) 7(4+x) =28+7x </h3><h3>4) 7(-4-x) =-28-7x </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that by using the distributive property to match the given equivalent expressions.

1) Given expression is -7(-4+x)

<h3>By Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac</h3>

-7(-4+x) =(-7)(-4)+(-7)(x)

=28-7x

2) Given expression is -7(4-x)

<h3>By Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac</h3>

-7(4-x) =(-7)(4)+(-7)(-x)

=-28+7x

3) Given expression is 7(4+x)

<h3>By Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac</h3>

7(4+x) =(7)(4)+(7)(x)

=28+7x

4) Given expression is 7(-4-x)

<h3>By Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac</h3>

7(-4-x) =(7)(-4)+(7)(-x)

=-28-7x

Hence the matched equivalent expressions are

1) -7(-4+x) =28-7x

2) -7(4-x) =-28+7x

3) 7(4+x) =28+7x

4) 7(-4-x) =-28-7x

The graph depicts the growth and costs using of line segment use the midpoint formula to approximate the cost during the year 19

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The approximate cost during the year 1987 was $7,533

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we have

y -----> is the cost in dollars

x -----> is the year

Looking at the graph we have the points

(1983,5,047) and (1991, 10,019)

To determine the cost in the year 1987, find out the midpoint between the two given points

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

$M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

substitute the values

$M=(\frac{1983+1991}{2},\frac{5,047+10,019}{2})$

$M=(1987,7,533)$

therefore

The approximate cost during the year 1987 was $7,533

Here’s my dilemma, I can accept a $1000 bill or play a game ten times. For each roll of the single die, I win $500 for rolling 1

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

you should accept the $1,000 bill

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

$500 for rolling 1 or 2
$400 for rolling 3
lose $300 for rolling 4,5,6

P (rolling 1 or 2) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3

P (rolling a 3) = 1/6

P (rolling 4 or 5 or 6) = 3/6 = 1/2

Hence, the expected value for 1 time is:

E = (1/3)*500 + (1/6)*400 - (1/2)*300

E = $166 + $66 - $150

E = $82

Expected value is linear so if you roll the die 10 times, expected value is: 10*82 = $820

The expected value is $82, meaning you should accept the $1,000 bill
