Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The number = x
Three more than the number = x + 3
twice the number = 2x
which means:
2x + 3 < -13
2x + 3 -3 < -13 -3 (subtract 3 from both sides)
2x < -16
2x/2 < -16/2 (divide 2 from both sides)
x < -8
238 rounded to the nearest ten would be 240 because 8 is bigger than 5. So since its bigger we move the tens place (3) a number ahead (4).
Thats how we get 238 rounded to the nearest ten would be 240.
Hope I helped ya!!
Answer:
What games do you play
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The probability that a book picked at random is either a work written by an author who writes only nonfiction or a work written by a man is 75.8%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability, in this case, has to be calculated using the sum rule because the events are independent.
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) - P(men non-fiction); where P is the probability. It means the probability that the random book was written by a man plus the probability that the random book was non-fiction minus the probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction. The probability that the random book was written by a man who writes non-fiction has to be subtracted, if not you will be duplicating it.
Facts:
P(men) = 60% = 99/165
P(non-fiction) = 40% = 66/165
P(men non-fiction) = 40/165
P = P(men) + P(non-fiction) – P(men non-fiction)
P = 99/165 + 66/165 – 40/165
P = 125/165
P = 0.758 or 75.8%
