Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Realize what (-5)^3 means

(-5)(-5)(-5)

25(-5)

-125

meanwhile

(-9)^2 is

(-9)(-9)

Basically a negative times a negative is always positive, but when a negative number is cubed (or raised to any odd exponent for that matter) the product will be negative.

you are at the mall and you want to buy a hoodie for 35 dollars its on sale for 25 percent off how do you find the discounted pr

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:$8.75

Step-by-step explanation:Thus, a product that normally costs $35 with a 25 percent discount will cost you $26.25, and you saved $8.75. You can also calculate how much you save by simply moving the period in 25.00 percent two spaces to the left, and then multiply the result by $35 as follows: $35 x .25 = $8.75 savings.

A pizza pie has 6 slices. 5 of the slices are equal

worty [1.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

In my picture I made 6 slices, with one slice twice as large as the others.

Pretend that we cut the sausage slice in half. Then there would be 7 slices total.

We want to find P(Not Sausage).

Well since we sliced the big slice in two, we have 7 slices total. There are 5 slices without sausage.

The probability of getting a slice without sausage would then be 5/7.
