3x + 12 I’m guessing not sure if it’s right
Answer:true
Step-by-step explanation:
Apex
Part A: The probability is 1/6. This is because there are six options in total, and only one of those options is 6.
Part B: The probability is 6/6, or alternatively 100%. This is because that the probability of rolling a 6 is 1/6, and the probability of rolling any of the other options is 5/6. Adding them together gives a probability of 6/6.
Part C: The probability is 5/6. This is because there are six options, and of those, five of them are not 6.
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
