Answer:Hope This Helps ☺️

Step-by-step explanation:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

CASE 1: substitute 1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (1) - 5)+ 2(1-3) = - (-1) + 2(-2) = 1 - 4 = -3

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(1) - 5 = -2-5 = -7

Hence for x= 1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because -3 ≠ -7

CASE 2: substitute -1 for x to both sides of the equations

L.H.S

-(4x-5)+2(x-3)

-(4 (-1) - 5)+ 2(-1-3) = - (-9) + 2(-4) = 9 - 8 = 1

R.H.S

-2x - 5

-2(-1) - 5 = 2-5 = -3

Hence for x= -1

-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5

Because 1 ≠ -3

Answer:

She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 3 events as

rolling 3 dice, are the events A: sum divisible by 3 and B: sum divisible 5

The sample space will have

(1,1,1)...(6,6,6)

Sum will start with 3 and end with 18

Sum divisible by 3 are 3,6,9..18

Sum divisible by 5 are 5,10,....15

The common element is 15

Hence these two events are not mutually exclusive.
