(n + 8) + (n - 12)

Get rid of the parenthesis.

n + 8 + n - 12

Note : the (12) turns into a negative because a negative times a positive is always a negative :)

Combine like terms.

(n + n) + (8 - 12)

Simplify.

2n - 4

~Hope I helped!~

In this figure, AB || CD and m/1 = 110*. A / What is m/5? 5/6 8/ 7 D Enter your answer in the box.​
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

240°

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a line EF perpendicular to AB and CD passing through M

In △BME 

∠BME+∠MBE+∠BEM=180∘ (Angle sum proprerty)

∠BME+35∘+90∘=180∘∠BME=180∘−125∘∠BME=45∘

In △DMF

∠DMF+∠MDF+∠MFD=180∘ (Angle sum property )

∠DMF+75∘+90∘=180∘∠DMF=180∘−165∘∠DMF=15∘

x=∠DMF+∠BME+∠EMF

x=15∘+45∘+180∘x=240∘

Find the slope of the line passions through the points(-6,3) and (-6,-1)
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The slope of this line would be undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the slope of any line, use the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - -1)/(-6 - -6)

m = (3 + 1)/(-6 + 6)

m = 4/0

Since we cannot divide by 0, then we know the slope is undefined.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (8, 3) and (1, 9).
leonid [27]

Answer:

-\frac{6}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

⇒ m = \frac{9 - 3}{1 - 8}

⇒ m = \frac{6}{-7}

54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability
Degger [83]

Part B is not clear and the clear one is;

P(X ≥ 6)

Answer:

A) 0.238

B) 0.478

C) 0.114

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;

P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)

A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;

p = 0.54

10 random adults are selected. Thus;

P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)

P(X = 5) = 0.238

B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

From online binomial probability calculator, we have;

P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478

C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)

Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;

P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114
