The two numbers are called opposites. The opposite of a positive is always negative and the opposite of a negative is always positive. For example, the opposite of 2 is -2. Hope this helped!

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the pr
Igoryamba

Answer:

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Random voting:

So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so p = 0.5

15 members:

This means that n = 15

What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003

P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003

So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Solve the following equation for y.<br>x-5y=-18<br>​
olganol [36]

Answer:

y=15x+185

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add -x to both sides.

x−5y+−x=−18+−x

−5y=−x−18

Step 2: Divide both sides by -5.

−5y−5=−x−18−5

y=15x+185

The sequence is:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181, 6765, 10946

Use distributive property to rewrite
galben [10]
The distributive property....u r basically multiplying the number outside of the parenthesis by everything inside the parenthesis...this gets rid of the parenthesis.

3(-4x + 8)...distribute the 3 thru the parenthesis
(3 * -4x) + (3 * 8) ...take that 3 and multiply it by every number in the parenthesis..to get rid of the parenthesis
-12x + 24 <===

4(x - 6y) =
(4 * x) - (4 * 6y) =
4x - 24y <===

6(5 - q) =
(6 * 5) - (6 * q) =
30 - 6q <===

1/2(c - 8) =
(1/2 * c) - (1/2 * 8) =
1/2c - 4 <===

-3(5 - b) =
(-3 * 5) - (-3 * b) =
-15 - (-3b) =
-15 + 3b <===

(d + 2)(-7)....re-arrange
-7(d + 2) =
(-7 * d) + (-7 * 2) =
-7d + (-14) =
-7d - 14 <===
