Allen's work is not written properly so I have rearranged it as shown below:
Original problem) –8.3 + 9.2 – 4.4 + 3.7.
Step 1) −8.3 + 9.2 + 4.4 + 3.7 Additive inverse
Step 2) −8.3 + 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7 Commutative property
Step 3) −8.3 + (4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7) Associative property
Step 4) −8.3 + 17.3
We can see that in step 1), Allen changed -4.4 into +4.4 using additive inverse. Notice that we are simplifying not eliminating -4.4 as we do in solving some equation. Hence using additive inverse is the wrong step.
Alen should have collect negative numbers together and positive numbers together.
Add the respective numbers then proceed to get the answer.
–8.3 + 9.2 – 4.4 + 3.7
= –8.3 – 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7
= -12.7 + 12.9
= 0.2
A standard deck of cards has 52 cards. Half of the deck has red cards and half has black cards. So the first probability would be 26/52, or 1/2 (simplified, it's half the deck).
Then you put the card back and choose a 3. There are 4 cards with the number 3 in the deck. So it's 4/52.
Then you multiply both the probabilities
26/52 x 4/52 =

= 1/26
Answer:
130.5
Step-by-step explanation:
similar shapes have proportional sides so divide 18/27 to get the proportion then multiply each side of the smaller polygon by the proportion to get the sides for the larger polygon and add the larger polygons sides together.
1 mile is 5280 feet so when adding both 5,280 and 250 feet you get 5,530.
