For this case we must simplify the following expression:

By definition we have that the distributive property establishes that:

So, if we have:
-2 (x-3)
We take into account the law of multiplication of signs:

So:

Answer:

Each row is read from left to right not down, that's what messed me up. All it wants you to do is fill in the blanks to make each row equal 187. It's a tricky table. q+d+n+p = 187. q=25, d=10, n=5, p=1. So for the first row, it's 4q + 6d + 5n + 2p = 187.
Do you still need help with this?
Answer:
12 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the ratio numbers by 6 and you have
boys : girls = 2 : 3 = 12 : 18
There are 12 boys in the class.
Answer:
There is a 82% probability that th esample mean annual sales per square foot is at least $384.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a population with mean 390 and standard deviation 45.83.
Samples of size n=49 are taken.
The parameters of the sampling distribution are:

First, we have to calculate the z-score that satisfies:

This z-score, looked up in a standard normal distribution table, is z=-0.915.
Then, we can calculate the sample mean as:

There is a 82% probability that th esample mean annual sales per square foot is at least $384.
