Answer:

c. 5x - 3 = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Jones deducts $3 from each of her 5 children's allowances this week because they didn't finish their chores. They then received a total of $125 in allowance. a. 5(x - 3) = 125

b. 5x - 15 = 125

c. 5x - 3 = 125

d. 5x = 140

Solution:

Let x represent the allowance for each of Mrs. Jones children. Since she deducts $3 from each children because they didn't finish their chores, the allowance for each child becomes x - 3.

There are 5 children, hence the allowance for the 5 children would be:

5(x-3)

Since they received a total of $125 in allowance, hence:

5(x-3) = 125

5x - 15 = 125

5x = 125 + 15

5x = 140

Option c is wrong

Does choosing a blue marble represent the complement event of choosing a red marble? Explain.
Arada [10]

Answer:

Below is the sample response

Step-by-step explanation:

The complementary event for choosing a red marble is choosing a blue or purple. The total number of marbles is 5. The probability of choosing a red marble is 1/5, and the complement would be 4/5. That is not the same as choosing a blue marble.

Which is twenty thousand eight hundred twelve written with base-ten numerals
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The answer is 20812

The numeral system we use is a base ten numeral system. Base ten numeral numbers are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

The number has:

2 "tens thousands" = 2 * 10000 = 20000

0 "thousands" = 0

8 "hundreds " = 8 * 100 = 800

1 "tens" = 1 * 10 = 10

2 "ones" = 2 * 1 = 2

Sum all the results => 20000+800+10+2 = 20812

That is how you write a number using base ten numerals (numbers from 0 to 9)
