Problem 33
Use the distributive property on the side containing parentheses of each expression and compare it to the other side.
a) 3(5a + 3) = 15a + 9 not equal to 15a + 6
b) 2(7b - 2) = 14b - 4 not equal to 14b + 4
c) 5(2c + 3) = 10c + 15 not equal to 7c + 8
d) 3(d + 5/3) = 3d + 5 which is equal to 3d + 5
Answer for problem 33: d)
Problem 34
Use a proportion. Let the unknown number of bowls be x. The proportion is made up of two ratios that are set equal to each other. Set each ratio as a ratio of the number of avocados per bowls of guacamole. 3 avocados per 1 bowl (3/1) equals 17 avocados per x bowls (17/x).
Answer: 17/3 full bowls which is the same as 5 2/3 full bowls.
Answer:
80 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length of both segments together, convert the lengths into one unit measure. Convert 500 mm into centimeters by dividing it by 10. 500/10 = 50 cm. Now add 30 + 50 = 80 cm. The segment is 80 cm long.
It’s 54 because I did the math to get the answer
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
40/100 is equal to 40% so 24/x =40/100 means 24 is 40% of x
Using binomial distribution where success is the appearing of any of the top 10 most common names, thus probability of success (p) is 9.6% = 0.096 and the probability of failure = 1 - 0.096 = 0.904. Number of trials is 11.
Binomial distribution probability is given by P(x) = nCx (p)^x (q)^(n - x)
Probability that none of the top 10 most common names appears is P(0) = 11C0 (0.096)^0 (0.904)^(11 - 0) = (0.904)^11 = 0.3295
Thus, the probability that at least one of the 10 most common names appear is 1 - 0.3295 = 0.6705
Therefore, I will be supprised that none of the names of the authors were among the 10 most common names given that the probability that at least one of the names appear is 67%.
