Answer:

2·8·7
8+2+7
12·5·3
3+5+12

Step-by-step explanation:

The properties of addition and multiplication allow you to rearrange and/or regroup the components of a sum or a product. That is the point of this exercise.

(2·8)·7 = 2·(8·7) . . . . parentheses have moved: associative property

2 + 7 + 8 = 8 + 2 + 7 . . . . order is rearranged: commutative property

5·3·12 = 12·5·3 . . . . . order is rearranged: commutative property

(3 +5) +12 = 3 +(5 +12) . . . . parentheses have moved: associative property

Additional comment

Whenever you're in doubt about the equivalence of numerical expressions, you can use your calculator to evaluate them. They will give the same result if they are equivalent. (You need a good scientific or graphing calculator that uses parentheses for this. Some seriously good calculators are available as low-cost phone apps.)

The Google search box also serves as input to the Google calculator. You can use an asterisk (*) for multiplication.

Julian has to read 4 articles for school. He has 8 nights to read them. He decides to read the same number of articles each nigh

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a. He will have to read half an article per night

b. Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Explanation:

Part a:

We are given that:

number of articles to read = 4 articles

number of nights = 8 nights

To get the number of articles that he should read per night, we will simply divide the the number of articles by the number of nights

Therefore:

number of articles to read per night = $\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$ articles per night

Part b:

Now, we know that he will read half an article each night from a total of 4 articles

To get the fraction of the reading assignment read each night, we will divide the number of articles read each night by the total number of assignments

Therefore:

Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = $\frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}$

Hope this helps :)

In an all boys school, the heights of the student body are normally distributed with a mean of 70 inches and a standard deviatio

almond37 [142]

Answer:

0.010

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 63 inches

μ is the population mean = 70 inches

σ is the population standard deviation = 3 inches

For x shorter than 63 inches = x < 63

Z score = x - μ/σ

= 63 - 70/3

= -2.33333

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<63) = 0.0098153

Approximately to the nearest thousandth = 0.010

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected student will be shorter than 63 inches tall, to the nearest thousandth is 0.010.
