Remember the distributive property? It goes like x(a+b)=xa+xb... For example 3(6+7)=(3*6)+(3*7)=39
Same here
5(3x-6)-8(3x-7)
do the thing
(15x-30)-(24x-56)
Take parentheses off.
15x-30-24x+56
//WHY PLUS 56 NOT MINUS?
//because there was a minus sign outside the original parentheses, so the signs inside have to be flipped when the parentheses is taken off
//Let's simplify now
15x-24x-30+56
-9x+26
^^The answer!
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: When the number of observations is odd the formula is:
$ x_m = x_\frac{n+1}{2}$
When the number of observations is even the formula is:
$ x_m = \frac{x_\frac{n}{2}+x_\frac{n+2}{2}}{2}$
Answer:
$3846.87
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the interest is compounded annually, the value in 3 years is ...
FV = P(1 +r)^t
FV = $3500(1.032^3) ≈ $3846.87
Sarah's account will be worth about $3846.87.
Answer:
a/5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can choose a random number for a and see which is greater. For example, you can say a = 40.
That would mean a/5 = 8 and a/8 = 5. Since 8 is greater than 5, a/5 will always be greater.
