Answer:
The addition rule for probabilities describes two formulas, one for the probability for either of two mutually exclusive events happening and the other for the probability of two non-mutually exclusive events happening.
The first formula is just the sum of the probabilities of the two events. The second formula is the sum of the probabilities of the two events minus the probability that both will occur.
Division is repeated subtraction, in the loosest sense.
True because decimals do have the same number when they are equivalent
Answer:
x + (5x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
x stands for the number of coins Nancy has
Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9
To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9
x + (5x-9)
But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations
