This is the Commutative Property of addition. called Commutative because the numbers move around to the other order, or "commute"
Answer:
<h2>36.14 pounds of 34% copper alloy and 9.86 pounds of 48% copper alloy</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
First alloy contains 34% copper and the second alloy contains 48% alloy.
We wish to make 46 pounds of a third alloy containing 37% copper.
Let the weight of first alloy used be 
in pounds and the weight of second alloy used be 
in pounds.
Total weight = 
Total weight of copper = 
Subtracting 34 times first equation from second equation,
∴ 36.14 pounds of first alloy and 9.86 pounds of second alloy were used.
Using the binomial distribution, it is found that the expected values are given by:
a) 120.
b) 150.
<h3>What is the binomial probability distribution?</h3>
It is the probability of <u>exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability</u> of a success on each trial.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
E(X) = np
In this problem, for both items, we consider that the number cube is rolled 180 times, hence n = 180.
Item a:
4 of the 6 possible values are greater than 2, hence p = 4/6 = 2/3.
The expected value is given by:
E(X) = 180 x 2/3 = 120.
Item b:
5 of the 6 values are less than 6, hence p = 5/6.
The expected value is given by:
E(X) = 180 x 5/6 = 150.

Answer:
3x - (15 x 3) = 90
or
3x - 45 = 90
Explanation:
there are 3 boxes. We don't know how many are in them yet, so we write this as 3x. However, we know that we give away 15 to 3 different teachers. 15 x 3 = 45
Therefore the first part is 3x - 45
We also know that in the end we have 90 left.
So our final equation is:
3x - 45 = 90
There are 99 miles left. 43(7)=301. 400-301=99.
