Simplify
Let's simplify step-by-step.
x(5)−3(x−4)
Distribute:
=x(5)+(−3)(x)+(−3)(−4)
=5x+−3x+12
Combine Like Terms:
=5x+−3x+12
=(5x+−3x)+(12)
=2x+12
Answer:
=2x+12
Answer: the Answer is b
Step-by-step explanation:
Option B:

Solution:
Given sound level = 120 decibel
To find the intensity of a fire alarm:

where 
Step 1: First divide the decibel level by 10.
120 ÷ 10 = 12
Step 2: Use that value in the exponent of the ratio with base 10.

Step 3: Use that power of twelve to find the intensity in Watts per square meter.


Now, do the cross multiplication,




Option B is the correct answer.
Hence
.
C. would be the correct device to use in trials.
But the actual probability is:
(1-1/4)^5
243/1024
(about 23.73% chance none of the five chose vanilla)
