Many, many people have made incorrect assumptions based on probability. Some of the most obvious cases come from people who gamb

le. For instance, gamblers often believe that if certain events (numbers on a pair of dice or a roulette wheel, or results on a slot machine) have not occurred in some time, then these numbers or results are "due" to occur. Or, they assume that if a repeated behavior results in several losses in a row, then they are "due" for a win if they repeat the same behavior. (Note that most casino games are designed so that the odds are slightly in favor of the casino. The games are otherwise "fair," in terms of their setups and theoretical probabilities for possible outcomes.) Apply the concept of expected values, as well as your understanding of "fair" games, to explain why gamblers are wrong when they use this line of reasoning After you post your thoughts, read and respond to the posts of your peers by using probability and mathematical reasoning to add insight to their conclusions.

Solve the following equation by using the distributive property: 5(x - 4) = 6
Pani-rosa [81]
You do 5 times x and 5 times 4 and you’d end up with equation that says 5x-4=6. The you add 4 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the 4. Your equation should now say 5x=10. You divide both sides by 5 and you have your answer x=2

Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 5 5 + 3 5 = 55+35=
vodomira [7]

Answer:

5(11+7) = 55+35

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property states that when multiplying a term with a sum multiply into each term within the sum. Here you have a sum. You’ll reverse the distributive property by factoring our a term which could multiply into each. 55 and 35 both have 5 as a factor. This makes the expression 5(11+7) = 55+35.

Conner and Jana are multiplying (3⁵6⁸)(3⁹6¹⁰).
ad-work [718]
<h3>Conner work is correct. Jana work is wrong</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given that,</u></em>

<em><u>Conner and Jana are multiplying:</u></em>

(3^56^8)(3^96^{10})

Given Conner's work is:

(3^56^8)(3^96^{10}) = 3^{5+9}6^{8+10} = 3^{14}6^{18}

We have to check if this work is correct

Yes, Conner work is correct

From given,

(3^56^8)(3^96^{10})\\\\3^5 \times 6^8 \times 3^9 \times 6^{10}

Use the following law of exponent

a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}

Therefore,

3^5 \times 6^8 \times 3^9 \times 6^{10} = 3^5 \times 3^9 \times 6^8 \times 6^{10} = 3^{5+9} \times 6^{8+10} = 3^{14} \times 6^{18}

<em><u>Given Jana's work is:</u></em>

(3^56^8)(3^96^{10}) = 3^{5.9}6^{8.10} = 3^{45}6^{80}

This is incorrect

The powers of same base has to be added. But here, powers are multiplied which is wrong
