Answer: Choice B</h3>
Positive, because the products (-5)(-3) and (-8)(-6) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive
=======================================================
Explanation:
Recall we have these rules
- positive times positive = positive
- positive times negative = negative
- negative times negative = positive
Here is one example for each rule
- 8*7 = 56
- 5*(-9) = -45
- -2*(-4) = 8
So based on that, we know that (-5)(-3) is positive. The two negatives cancel each other out so to speak. The same goes for (-8)(-6). Then multiplying any two positive numbers produces another positive outcome.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
2x² + 3x + 3 = 20
⇔ 2x² + 3x + 3 - 20 = 0
⇔ 2x² + 3x - 17 = 0
<u>Using the Quadratic Formula to solve a Quadratic Equation</u> :

In the equation 2x² + 3x - 17 = 0
a = 2 , b = 3 and c = -17
Then
b² - 4ac = 3² - 4×2×(-17)
= 9 + 8 × 17
= 9 + 136
= 145
Then
b² - 4ac > 0
Then

Then

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming a normal distribution for the amount spent by Canadian households for high-speed broadband access, the formula for normal distribution is expressed as
z = (x - u)/s
Where
x = amount spent by the Canadian households.
u = mean amount spent monthly.
s = standard deviation
From the information given,
u = $80.63 CDN
s = $27.32 CDN
We want to find the probability that the average amount will exceed $85. It is expressed as
P(x greater than 85) = 1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 85)
For x = 85
z = (85 - 80)/27.32 = 0.18
Looking at the normal distribution table, the corresponding z score is 0.57142
P(x greater than 85) = 1 - 0.57142 = 0.43
There are 160 dolls in the store.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
The ratio of the number of teddy bears to the number of dolls is given as 
Suppose, the number of teddy bears
and the number of dolls
Given that, the store has 60 teddy bears. That means....

(Dividing both sides by 3)
So, the number of dolls in the store
