Answer:
To do this, you need to multiply out the expressions. This is a bit tedious, but remember like FOIL for binomials, for these trinomials you must multiply each term. If you need a step-by-step, I'd be happy to provide it. Let me know.
Once you have simplified the expression, you get
-x-9/2x-4
But, the problem stipulates that a must equal 1. We can equivalently factor out the negative sign and put it on the denominator with no change to write
x+9/-(2x-4) = x+9/-2x+4
So, seeing where each coefficient corresponds between the two expressions, you get a = 1, b = 9, c = –2, and d = 4.
Answer:
-7, -2, 0, 5, 9, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative numbers are obviously less that the positive, and well from there its fairly obvious
It’s actually true!

The 4 arrows above the number line represents the distance between 2 and -2 which is 4!
Answer:
The probability of NOT hitting a boundary is (4/5).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let E: Be the event of hitting a boundary
now, Probability of any event E = 
Here, number of favorable outcomes = 6
So, P(E) = 
⇒Probability of hitting a six is 1/5
Now, P(E) + P(not E) = 1
So, P(not hitting a boundary ) = 1 - P(hitting a boundary)
= 1 - (1/5) = 4/5
Hence, the probability of NOT hitting a boundary is (4/5).
