Evaluate this expression (-7--9)*(8+2)

1 answer:

5 0

Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.

P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction

Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.

$(-7 - -9) *(8 + 2)$
$(2) *(10)$

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

$(2)*(10) = 20$

20 is the answer.

Matt Bonner has 8 dimes, 9 pennies, and 4 quarters in his pocket. If each coin is equally likely to be pulled out of his pocket

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

B. 0.602%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is essentially (# times specific event will occur) / (# times general event will occur). Here, we have a few specific events: draw a quarter, draw a second quarter, draw a penny, and draw another penny. The general event will just be the number of coins there are to choose from.

The probability that the first draw is a quarter will be 4 / (4 + 8 + 9) = 4/21.

Since we've drawn one now, there's only 21 - 1 = 20 total coins left. The probability of drawing a second quarter is: (4 - 1) / (21 - 1) = 3/20.

The probability of drawing a penny is: 9 / (20 - 1) = 9/19.

The probability of drawing a second penny is: (9 - 1) / (19 - 1) = 8/18.

Multiply these four probabilities together:

(4/21) * (3/20) * (9/19) * (8/18) = 864 / 143640 ≈ 0.602%

The answer is B.

(y-5)/2=(y+6)/3 solve

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The solution of the given equation represented in the task content can be determined by first evaluating the LCM and hence is; y= 27.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation as given in the task?</h3>

The given equation is; (y-5)/2=(y+6)/3.

Hence, by multiplying the equation by 6, we have;

3(y-5) = 2(y+6)

3y -15 = 2y +12

y = 27.

Hence, it follows that the value of y which is a solution to the equation is; y = 27.
