Answer:

  D.  -16/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3.2 = -32/10 = -16/5 . . . . matches choice D

_____

<em>More detail</em>

Any finite decimal can be converted to a fraction by considering the place value of the digits.

  3.2 = 3×1 + 2×(1/10)

  = 3 + 2/10 = (30 +2)/10 = 32/10

Then common factors can be cancelled from numerator and denominator.

  32/10 = (2·16)/(2·5) = 16/5

The negative sign can be applied as required.

  -3.2 = -(3.2) = -(16/5) = -16/5

Valentin [98]
First compute the whole number of the possibilities :
10*9=90.
Compute the number of favorable possibilities:
There is 5 even numbers. Once we pick an even number, 
we pick 5. So the number of the favorable possibilities is 5.
Now we compute the probability like this:
\frac{5}{90}

Choose the correct simplification of (2x3 + x2 − 4x) − (9x3 − 3x2).
Mrrafil [7]
You start off by multiplying the second bracket by -1 to get rid of the bracket.
So,
(2x3 + x2 - 4x) - 9x3 + 3x2 =
2x3 +x2 - 4x - 9x3 + 3x2 =
(2x3 - 9x3) + (x2 + 3x2) - 4x =
-7x3 + 4x2 - 4x
