Answer:
The probability of hitting an odd number three times is 3.375 times more than the probability of hitting an even number three times..
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of hitting an odd number = 3/5
Probability of hitting an odd number = 2/5
Probability of hitting an odd number three times = (3/5)^3
Probability of hitting an odd number three times = (2/5)^3
Now divide (3/5)^3 by (2/5)^3 we get:
(3/5)^3 / (2/5)^3
(3)^3/(2)^3
27/8 = 3.375
The probability of hitting an odd number three times is 3.375 times more than the probability of hitting an even number three times..
Answer: Choice D
It has two factors and the factor (5+y) has two terms
=========================================================
Explanation:
(5+y)*8 is in the form P*Q where
P = 5+y
Q = 8
So we have two factors multiplied together. A factor is simply a number that helps multiply to a larger one. Another example: 14 has the factors 7 and 2 because 7*2 = 14
The factor 5+y has two terms which are 5 and y. The terms are separated by a plus sign. If you had something like 5-y, then you can write it as 5+(-y) and you'd still have two terms.
Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
I dont want you to "Literally die" so heres the explaination:
The absolute value mean always a positive number. So if a number is positive and it has the absolute value symbol next to it then it is positive. If the number is negative than it become positive. With that say, we can began to solve our linear equation.
We shoudl first isolate the variable so let's subtract the number 8 from BOTH SIDES. So now we should have -24=-12(k/5)
Now we will use the disributive property. this will give us:
-24=(-12k/5)
BUT WAIT!! THE ABSOLUTE VALUE RULE MUST BE APPLIED!!
Therefore it should be -24=12k/5
Now we can just solve this regularly:
Keep reading if you don't know how to solves linear equations.
Multiply 5 to both sides:
-120=12k
k=-10
