9 adults is the answer

Explanation: To go from 5 kids to 15 kids you have to multiply by 3, what you do to one side of the ratio you have to do to the other, so you take the 3 adults and also multiply it by 3, which gives you 9!

Apply the distributive property to create a equivalent expression: (m-3+4n)x(-8)
mestny [16]

Answer:

(m - 3 + 4n)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use * or · to indicate multiplication, not the letter "x."

Try this:  Multiply (m - 3 + 4n) by -8 (distributive property for multiplication);

-8(m - 3 + 4n) = -8m + 24 - 32n

Two faces of a six-sided die are painted red, two are painted blue, and two are painted yellow. The die is rolled three times, a
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

(a) 4/9

(b) 19/27

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of each die turning up red or not turning red are:

P(R) =\frac{2}{6}= \frac{1}{3}\\P(O) =\frac{4}{6}= \frac{2}{3}

(a). Exactly one face up is red.

The odds of only the first die being red are:

P(A=R) =\frac{1}{3} *\frac{2}{3}* \frac{2}{3} \\P(1=R) =\frac{4}{27}

The same odds are valid for only the second or only the third die being red. Therefore, the probability that exactly one die turns up red is:

P(R=1) = 3*\frac{4}{27}\\P(R=1) = \frac{4}{9}

(b). At least one face up is red.

The probability that at least one die turns up red is the sum of the probabilities of exactly one (found in the previous item), two or all dice turning up red.

Following the same logic as in the previous item, the probability that exactly two dice turn up red is:

P(R=2) = 3*(\frac{1}{3}*\frac{1}{3}*\frac{2}{3})\\P(R=2) = \frac{2}{9}

The probability that all die turn up red is:

P(R=3) = \frac{1}{3}*\frac{1}{3}*\frac{1}{3}\\P(R=3)=\frac{1}{27}

Thus, the probability that at least one die turns up red is:

P= P(R=1)+P(R=2)+P(R=3) = \frac{4}{9}+\frac{2}{9}+\frac{1}{27}\\P=\frac{19}{27}
