Answer: 3x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use the distributive property, you simply multiply the number on the outside by both the number inside the parenthesis

So, in this case, we would multiply 3 by X and 3 by 5

3 times x = 3x

3 times 5 =15

Your new equation is then made by adding these two together

3x+15

Answer 3x + 15

Suppose a baseball team has 14 players on the roster who are not members of the pitching staff. Of those 14 players, assume that

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: Our required probability would be 0.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of players = 14

Number of players have recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 3

Number of players have not recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 14-3=11

Number of members chosen randomly = 5

We need to find the probability that at least one of the tested players is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug.

P(Atleast 1) = 1 - P(none is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug)

So, P(X≥1)=1-P(X=0)

$P(X\geq 1)=1-^5C_0(\dfrac{11}{14})^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=1-(0.786)^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=0.70$

Hence, our required probability would be 0.70.

Which relationship is always true for the angles x,y and z of triangle ABC

bixtya [17]

Answer:

B. y + z = x

Step-by-step explanation:

x is an exterior angle of the triangle.

y and z are the opposite angles opposite the exterior angle.

The exterior angle theorem of a triangle states that the measure of an exterior angle equals the measure of the sum of the two angles opposite the exterior angle.

Thus:

y + z = x
