The answer to this would be x-(x+14)

Here's an explanation:

Let x represent the unknown number. The problem says that x has been decreased by the sum of x and 14. So, to put this in a form of an equation, it would be x-(x+14), since you have to do the addition first before you can subtract the two number since you don't know what x is. This equation is equal to -14 no matter what x is.

Suppose Wesley is a marine biologist who is interested in the relationship between the age and the size of male Dungeness crabs.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

20.24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, since the age of the crab is given in months and the regression line was computed using the age in months, we just have to replace the value of the age in the formula to estimate the size.

The formula obtained for the estimated size Y was

Y = 9.1411 + 0.4775X  

where X is the age in months

Replacing X with 23.2417, we get

Y = 9.1411 + 0.4775*23.2417 = 20.24 cm

If two 6-sided dice are rolled what is the probability that both numbers will be even?
Tamiku [17]
The probability of one dice rolling an even number is 1/2 as half the numbers are even. Since the events are independent, and there are 2 dice, we need to square 1/2 to get 1/4, assuming they are both fair dice
