-2(m + 4) = 40
The first step is to use the distributive property to clear the parenthesis
-2 * m + -2* 4 = 40
-2m - 8 = 40
next, to isolate the variable, add 8 to both sides
-2m - 8 + 8 = 40 + 8
-2m = 48
the last step is to get rid of the multiplication by -2 we will divide by -2
(-2m)/-2 = 48/-2
m = -24

A padlock has a four-digit code that includes digits from 0 to 9, inclusive. What is the probability that the code does not cons
Eduardwww [97]
Since there is no repetition allowed, there are 10 possibilities for the 1st digit, 9 for the 2nd, 8 for the 3rd, and 7 for the 4th. This gives a total of (10)(9)(8)(7) = 5040 four-digit codes.
For all odd digits to be used, there are 5 possibilities for the 1st digit (1,3,5,7,9), 4 for the 2nd, 3 for the 3rd, 2 for the 4th. This gives a total of (5)(4)(3)(2) = 120 codes that only use odd digits.
Therefore there are 5040 - 120 = 4920 codes that do not consist of all odd digits. The probability is 4920/5040 = 41/42.

Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. If
Aleks04 [339]
<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because  A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6

Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.
