All real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac
Expand: 4(a+2)=4a+8
Expand again: 14-2(3-2a)=4a+8
4a+8=4a+8
You subtract by 8 from both sides of an equation.
4a+8-8=4a+8-8
Simplify.
4a=4a
Then, subtract by 4a from both sides of an equation.
4a-4a=4a-4a
Finally, simplify.
4a-4a=0
0=0
True
All real numbers is the final answer.
Hope this helps you!
Have a nice day! :)
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
8x(5+7)
Parentheses first
8* (12)
Then multiply
96
Answer:
Let the number to find be x
7 - 9x = 52
-9x = 52-7
- 9x = -45
Divide by - 9
x = 5
The number is 5
Hope this helps.
Answer:
1) Rolling a 3 is unlikely and rolling a 4 is unlikely too.
2) The probability of niki drawing a green marble is likely and the probability of tom drawing a blue marble is unlikely.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Since there is only one 3 out of 6 numbers, the probability of that outcome is 1/6, which is low. The same thing goes for throwing a 4.
2) The reason why it is equally likely for niki drawing a green is because there are more green marbles than the other marbles. You could see it as a fraction as well, which is 4/9 Which is very close to one half (4.5). For tom, there are less blue marbles which brings it down to the unlikely spot (fraction = 3/9)
Hopefully this helps, and hopefully it isn't too confusing.
The annual return percentages will be evaluated using the formula:
A=P(1+r/100)^n
where:
A=amount
P=principle
r=rate
n=time
a] A=$500, P=$400, n=1 years
500=400(1+r)^1
solving for r we shall obtain:
1.25=1+r
hence
r=1.25-1
r==0.25
annual rate of investment is 25%
b] A=2500+100=$2600, P=$ 2000, n=1 year
hence
2600=2000(1+r)^1
2600/2000=1+r
1.3=1+r
r=1.3-1
r=0.3
annual rate of investment is 30%
