Explanation:
_______________________________________________
(12a <span>+ 7b) + (−6a − 9) + (14a − 12b) =
12a </span><span>+ 7b + 1(−6a − 9) + 1(14a − 12b) =
</span>
12a + 7b + (1*-6a) + (1*-9) + (1*14a) + (1* -12b) =
12a + 7b − 6a − 9 + 14a − 12b = ?
Combine the "like terms:
12a − 6a + 14a = 20a ;
7b − 12b = - 5b ;
and then we have "-9" ;

So, write as: " 20a − 5b − 9 " ; which is: Answer choice: [A].

<span>-2x^2-x+7=0
Variable with the highest degree's (exponent) constant, -2 is a, next variable's constant, -1 is b, the constant or number without a variable, 7 is c
using substitution put the numbers into the formula
</span>(-b±√(b^(2)-4ac))/(a^(2))
(-(-1)±√((-1)^(2)-4(-2)(7))/((-2)^(2)) simplify
(1±√(1+56))/4
1±√(57)/4 is your answer
66 is the 100%
we can solve this problem by the rule of three.
Therefore:
66------------------------100%
x--------------------------150%
x=(66 * 150%) / 100%=99
Answer 150% of 66 is 99.
Other method:
150% of 66=1.5 *66=99
Answer: 150% of 66 is 99.
The probability of losing per flip is 1/2. Multiply 1/2 by itself 6 times since the condition is asking for the probability for the person to lose 6 times in a row. 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/64. The answer is 1/64.
