Answer:

C. $-2x-7y$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an expression $-(4x+y)+2(x-3y)$ . Weare asked to simplify our given expression.

Using distributive property property $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ , we will get:

$-1*4x-1*y+2*x-2*3y$

$-4x-y+2x-6y$

Now, we will combine like terms.

$-4x+2x-y-6y$

$-2x-7y$

Therefore, the simplified form of our given expression would be $-2x-7y$ and option C is the correct choice.

Answer: 1) 7/10 2) 15 3) 240 4) 1/4 5) 4/9 6) 1/20 7) No, not independent

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4 green+3red+2blue+1yellow = 10 total

if 3/10 are red, then 7/10 are not red. So the second option, 7/10

2. 3 cartons in every 40

40*5 = 200

so do 3*5 = 15

so 15 or the third option

3. 40 out of 110

110*6 = 660

so do 40*6 = 240

so 240 or the fourth option

Flipping heads: 1/2

rolling even: well, there is 2, 4, and 6, or 3 even numbers so 3/6 or 1/2

do 1/2*1/2 = 1/4

so 1/4 or the third option

5. Numbers more than 2: 3, 4, 5, 6 (4 numbers)

4/6 or 2/3 chance the first time, 2/3 chance the second time

do 2/3*2/3 = 4/9

so 4/9 or the second option

6. 5 dishes and 4 desserts

1/5 chance of picking the dish

1/4 chance of picking the dessert

do 1/5*1/4 = 1/20

so 1/20 or the fourth option

7. Since you don’t replace the marble after picking it, it affects the outcome of the second draw. Therefore the events are dependent, or not independent. So the second option.

Answer:

a) 2

b) - $\frac{1}{2}$

c) y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First put the equation into slope intersept form (y=mx+b) by...

Move the variable to the right-hand side and change its sign : -y = -4 -2x

Change the signs on both sides of the equation: y = 4 + 2x

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms : y = 2x + 4

Slope intersept form : y = 2x + 4

Parallel lines have the same slope so.... a parallel slope is 2

First put the equation into slope intersept form (y=mx+b) by...

Move the variable to the right-hand side and change its sign : -y = -4 -2x

Change the signs on both sides of the equation: y = 4 + 2x

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms : y = 2x + 4

Slope intersept form : y = 2x + 4

To find a perpendicular slope flip the slope and change the sign : - $\frac{1}{2}$

First put the equation into slope intersept form (y=mx+b) by...

Move the variable to the right-hand side and change its sign : -y = -4 -2x

Change the signs on both sides of the equation: y = 4 + 2x

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms : y = 2x + 4

Slope intersept form : y = 2x + 4, parellel slope : 2

Substitute the x and y values with the given ordered pair: 3 = 2(1) + b
Calculate the product: 3 = 2 + b
Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign: -x = 2 - 3

Calculate the difference and change the signs : b = 1

Use the slope and y-intersept (b) to write the new line : y = 2x + 4

raketka [301]

I think it is 350(1.2)^t because you take the starting amount (350) and then multiple it by the growth rate (which is 20%, but when added to 100 and the put into a decimal is 1.2) raised by the number of hours (t).
I hope this helps.
