Answer:

(a) 5 * (2x - 1) = 10x - 5

(b) 6 * x = x + 2x + 3x

(c) \frac{1}{2}(x - 6) = \frac{1}{2}x - 3

(d) y(3x + 4z) = 3xy + 4yz

(e) z(2xy - 3y + 4x) = 2xyz - 3yz + 4xz

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

10x - 5

Required

Express as a product

Express 10x as 5 * 2x

10x - 5 = 5 * 2x - 5

Apply distributive property

10x - 5 = 5(2x - 1)

10x - 5 = 5 * (2x - 1)

So:

5 * (2x - 1) = 10x - 5

Solving (b):

Given

x + 2x + 3x

Required

Express as a product

Express 2x and 3x as 2 * x and 3 * x, respectively

x + 2x + 3x = x + 2*x + 3*x

Apply distributive property

x + 2x + 3x = x(1 + 2 + 3)

x + 2x + 3x = x(6)

x + 2x + 3x = 6*x

So:

6 * x = x + 2x + 3x

Solving (c):

Given

\frac{1}{2}(x - 6)

Required

Express as a sum/difference

Apply distributive property

\frac{1}{2}(x - 6) = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{1}{2}*6

\frac{1}{2}(x - 6) = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{6}{2}

\frac{1}{2}(x - 6) = \frac{1}{2}x - 3

Solving (d):

Given

y(3x + 4z)

Required

Express as a sum/difference

Apply distributive property

y(3x + 4z) = 3x * y + 4z * y

y(3x + 4z) = 3xy + 4yz

Solving (e):

Given

2xyz - 3yz + 4xz

Required

Express as a product

Factorize

2xyz - 3yz + 4xz = 2xy * z - 3y * z + 4x * z

Apply distributive property

2xyz - 3yz + 4xz = z(2xy - 3y + 4x)

So:

z(2xy - 3y + 4x) = 2xyz - 3yz + 4xz

olchik [2.2K]

Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:

Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.

Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.

Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.

11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high.  11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!

It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.

Using a sample of 60 undergraduates, Dr. Hotchkins discovers a negative correlation between stress and emotional well-being. Whi
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer and explanation:

A negative correlation means a relationship between two variables whereby each variable affects the other such that an increase in one variable means a decrease in the other and vice versa. This is the situation with the correlation graph/scatter plot of Dr. Hotchkins: An increase in stress would cause a decrease in emotional well being and vice versa

An Outlier is a data point on the scatter plot that does not fall into the pattern of the correlation graph. From the above, 4 points are outliers: extremely high points on stress and emotional well being. These points would affect (increase or decrease) the correlation coefficient depending on where they fall in the pattern. In this case there are 4 outliers out of 60 data points and we know that the more outliers there are the more effect they have on the correlation coefficient and vice versa(also depending on where the outlier is on the scatter plot)
