Answer:

0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Green Light = 35 seconds

Yellow Light = 10 seconds

Red Light = 15 seconds

Total second = 60

So, probability that the first color you see is yellow = \frac{\text{Yellow light time}}{\text{total time}}

                                                                                     = \frac{10}{60}

                                                                                     = \frac{1}{6}

                                                                                     = 0.167

Hence the probability that the first color you see is yellow is 0.167.

1. Using the exponent rule (a^b)·(a^c) = a^(b+c) ...

\left(-2x^3y^4\right)\left(5x^9y^{-2}\right)=(-2)(5)\left(x^{(3+9)}y^{(4-2)}\right)\\\\=-10x^{12}y^{2}

Simplify. Write in Scientific Notation

2. You know that 256 = 2.56·100 = 2.56·10². After that, we use the same rule for exponents as above.

8 \left(32\times 10^{11}\right)=(8)(32)\times 10^{11}=256\times 10^{11}=2.56\times 10^{13}

3. The distributive property is useful for this.

(3x – 1)(5x + 4) = (3x)(5x + 4) – 1(5x + 4)

... = 15x² +12x – 5x –4

... = 15x² +7x -4

4. Look for factors of 8·(-3) = -24 that add to give 2, the x-coefficient.

-24 = -1×24 = -2×12 = -3×8 = -4×6

The last pair of factors adds to give 2. Now we can write

... (8x -4)(8x +6)/8 . . . . . where each of the instances of 8 is an instance of the coefficient of x² in the original expression. Factoring 4 from the first factor and 2 from the second factor gives

... (2x -1)(4x +3) . . . . . the factorization you require
