$-13.7+(-5+2.7)=-13.7+(2.7+(-5))\\\\=-13.7+(2.7-5)=-13.7+(-2.3)=-(13.7+2.3)\\\\=\boxed{-16}\leftarrow\boxed{b.}$

-13.7 + (-5 + 2.7)

First, simplify -5 + 2.7 to -2.3 / Your problem should look like: $-13.7 + -2.3$
Second, simplify to get rid of the addition. / Your problem should look like: $-13.7 - 2.3$
Third, subtract. / Your problem should look like: $-16$

Answer: -16 (B)

An apartment complex on Ferenginar with 250 units currently has 223 occupants. The current rent for a unit is 892 slips of Gold-

Triss [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total units = 250

Current occupants = 223

Rent per unit = 892 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

Current rent = 892 x 223 =198,916 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

After increase in the rent, then the rent function becomes

Let us conside 'y' is increased in amount of rent

Then occupants left will be [223 - y]

Rent = [892 + 2y][223 - y] = R[y]

To maximize rent =

$\frac{dR}{dy}=0\\=2(223-y)-(892+2y)=0\\=446-2y-892-2y=0\\=-446-4y=0\\y=\frac{-446}{4}=-111.5$

Since 'y' comes in negative, the owner must decrease his rent to maximixe profit.

Since there are only 250 units available;

$y=-250+223=-27\\\\maximum \,profit =[892+2(-27)][223+27]\\=838 * 250\\=838\,for\,250\,units$

Optimal rent - 838 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

Factor: 2x + 2y<br> Show work please

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

2(x + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can pull out a 2 from the expression.

So divide 2x by 2 and 2y by 2.

2x/2 = x

2y/2 = y

2(x + y)

Suppose you pay a dollar to roll two dice. if you roll 5 or a 6 you Get your dollar back +2 more just like it the goal will be t

LiRa [457]

Answer:

(a)$67

(b)You are expected to win 56 Times

(c)You are expected to lose 44 Times

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space for the event of rolling two dice is presented below

$(1,1), (2,1), (3,1), (4,1), (5,1), (6,1)\\(1,2), (2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (5,2), (6,2)\\(1,3), (2,3), (3,3), (4,3), (5,3), (6,3)\\(1,4), (2,4), (3,4), (4,4), (5,4), (6,4)\\(1,5), (2,5), (3,5), (4,5), (5,5), (6,5)\\(1,6), (2,6), (3,6), (4,6), (5,6), (6,6)$

Total number of outcomes =36

The event of rolling a 5 or a 6 are:

$(5,1), (6,1)\\ (5,2), (6,2)\\( (5,3), (6,3)\\ (5,4), (6,4)\\(1,5), (2,5), (3,5), (4,5), (5,5), (6,5)\\(1,6), (2,6), (3,6), (4,6), (5,6), (6,6)$

Number of outcomes =20

Therefore:

P(rolling a 5 or a 6) $=\dfrac{20}{36}$

The probability distribution of this event is given as follows.

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}$Amount Won(x)&-\$1&\$2\\&\\P(x)&\dfrac{16}{36}&\dfrac{20}{36}\end{array}\right|$

First, we determine the expected Value of this event.

Expected Value

$=(-\$1\times \frac{16}{36})+ (\$2\times \frac{20}{36})\\=\$0.67$

Therefore, if the game is played 100 times,

Expected Profit =$0.67 X 100 =$67

If you play the game 100 times, you can expect to win $67.

(b)

Probability of Winning $=\dfrac{20}{36}$

If the game is played 100 times

Number of times expected to win

$=\dfrac{20}{36} \times 100\\=56$ times$

Therefore, number of times expected to loose

= 100-56

=44 times

The shape on the left is translated to the shape on the right.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation means moving so when saying Translate to the right your really moving it to the right. The questions says The shape on left is the original and the right is translated which means the left is the pre-image while right is the image. A is the only answer that doesn’t say the right is the pre image. Also, “ ‘ “ is used to distinguish the pre image coordinates vs the image coords so it easier.
