Insert 2 sets of parentheses to make each sentence true: 2 x 14 – 9 – 17 – 14 = 7 (2 x 14) – 9 – (17 – 14) = 7 2 x (14 – 9) + (–

17 – 14) = 7 (2 x 14) – (9 – 17) – 14 = 7 2 x (14 – 9) – (17 – 14) = 7

Answer:

  2 × (14 – 9) – (17 – 14) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate the choices to see which is true.

(2 x 14) – 9 – (17 – 14) = 7   ⇒  28 -9 -3 ≠ 7

2 x (14 – 9) + (– 17 – 14) = 7   ⇒  2(5) +(-31) ≠ 7

(2 x 14) – (9 – 17) – 14 = 7   ⇒   28 -(-8) -14 ≠ 7

2 x (14 – 9) – (17 – 14) = 7   ⇒   2(5)- 3 = 7 . . . . true

You have $10 in your bank account. It doubles in the first month and every month thereafter. How much money will you have after
madam [21]
After 5 months you will have $160

so,
10
10×2 =20
20×2=40
40×2 =80
80×2=160
hence proved that after 5 months you will have $160

Tamika went hiking with her friends. The beginning of -1 feet. The highest elevation on hiking path is 100 feet. What is the dif
const2013 [10]

hello!

so the difference is 101 and here is why!

you want to minus -1 from 100

100 - (-1)

but because it is a double negative it will become addition

100 + 1

so the difference is 101 feet

i hope this helped :)

According to the WHO MONICA Project the mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg
Alja [10]

Answer:

a) Let X the random variable that represent the blood pressure for people of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(128,23)  

Where \mu=128 and \sigma=23

b) P(X\geq 135)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\geq \frac{135-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z\geq \frac{135-128}{23})=P(Z\geq 0.304)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(Z\geq 0.304)=1-P(Z

And in order to find this probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(Z\geq 0.304)=1-P(Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the blood pressure for people of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(128,23)  

Where \mu=128 and \sigma=23

Part b

We are interested on this probability

P(X\geq 135)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X\geq 135)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\geq \frac{135-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z\geq \frac{135-128}{23})=P(Z\geq 0.304)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(Z\geq 0.304)=1-P(Z

And in order to find this probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(Z\geq 0.304)=1-P(Z

If a divides c and that b divides c. Prove ab divides c
Lera25 [3.4K]

If a divides c,

then 'a' is a factor of 'c'.

Also,

If 'b' divides c,

then 'b' is also a factor of 'c'

therefore,

'a' and 'b' are factors of 'c'

Hence, a and b divides 'c'

so, c = a*b

and ab will also divide c.

Hence, proved.

Joan is building a sandbox in the shape of a regular pentagon.The perimeter of the pentagon is 35y^4-65x^3 inches.Whaf is the le
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The length of one side of sandbox is 7y^4-13x^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of Pentagon = 35y^4-65x^3

We need to length of one side of sand box.

Solution:

Now it has been given that sand box is in the shape of regular pentagon.

The length of all side of regular pentagon are equal.

Let the length of side of the sandbox be 's'.

Now we know that;

Perimeter of regular pentagon is equal to five times its side length.

so equation can be framed as;

5s=35y^4-65x^3

Now taking 5 common on the right side we get;

5s = 5(7y^4-13x^3)

Dividing both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5s}{5} = \frac{5(7y^4-13x^3)}{5}\\\\s=7y^4-13x^3

Hence The length of one side of sandbox is 7y^4-13x^3.
