The result is <span>B. 1638.</span>

To calculate this, we will use both an addition and a multiplication rule. The addition rule is used to calculate the probability of one of the events from multiple pathways. If you want that only one of the events happens, you will use the addition rule. <span>The multiplication rule calculates the probability that both of two events will occur.
First, there are two possibilities for winning exactly one match:
1. To win the first match and lose the second one.
2. To lose the first match and win the second one.

9% = 0.09 is the probability of winning. The probability of losing is 1-0.09 = 0.91. To calculate the probability of winning </span><span>the first match and losing the second one and vice versa, we will use the multiplication rule:
</span>1. 0.09 × 0.91 = 0.0819
2. 0.91 × 0.09 = 0.0819

We want to either one of these events to happen, so using the addition rule, we have:
0.0819 + 0.0819 = 0.1638

In 10,000 matches:
0.1638 × 10,000 = 1,638

Subtract.(8j³ + 9j² + 6j + 8) - (j² + 8)
german

As we did in the previous problem, we need to remove the parenthesis using distributive property so as to be able to combine like terms.

The first paranthesis is positive, so nothing changes as we remove it:

8 j^3 + 9 j^2 + 6 j + 8 - (j^2 + 8)

before removing the second parenthesis, we realize it is preceded by the negative sign of the indicated subtraction. Then as we remove the parenthesis, we flip the signs of all terms inside it:

8 j^3 + 9 j^2 + 6 j + 8 - j^2 - 8

now we combine like terms + 8 and - 8, rendering a zero "0". and we also combine the terms that contain j^2 : 9 j^2 - j^2 = 8 j^2.

Therefore, our final expression becomes:

8 j^3 + 8 j^2 + 6 j
