Answer:

1a. multiplication property of equality

1b. distributive property

1c. subtraction property of equality

1d. division property of equality

2a. distributive property

2b. addition property of equality

2c. division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

The properties that let you do the same thing to both sides of an equation are the properties of equality. These are usually given an additional qualifier according to the operation being performed: addition property ..., subtraction property ..., multiplication property ..., division property .... The property that lets you add or eliminate parentheses is the distributive property (of multiplication over addition).

To answer these questions, you need to compare each line to the previous to see what operation was performed. It will generally be use of one of the properties described above, or "simplification," in which like terms are combined.

1a. both sides are multiplied by 3: multiplication property of equality

1b. parentheses are eliminated: distributive property

1c. 18 is subtracted from both sides: subtraction property of equality

1d. both sides are divided by 2: division property of equality

2a. parentheses are eliminated: distributive property

2b. 24 is added to both sides: addition property of equality

2c. both sides are divided by 2: division property of equality

There are 15 students in the 8th grade. The students are randomly placed into three different algebra classes of 5 students each

xeze [42]

Answer:

The probability is $\frac{6}{91}$ ≅ $0.0659$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analyze the question.

There are 15 students in the 8th grade.

The students are randomly placed into three different algebra classes of 5 students each.

We are looking for the probability that Trevor, Terry and Evan will be in the same algebra class.

One possible way to solve this question is to think about the product probability rule.

We can use it because we are in an equiprobable space. (And also the events are independent).

Let's set for example a class for Evan.

The probability that Evan will be in a class is $1$

Then for Terry there are $4$ places out of $14$ that puts Terry in the Evan's class.

We write $1.\frac{4}{14}$

Finally for Trevor there are $3$ places out of the remaining $13$ that puts Trevor in the same class with Evan and Terry.

Using the product rule we write :

$1.\frac{4}{14}.\frac{3}{13}=\frac{6}{91}$

The probability of the event is $\frac{6}{91}$ ≅ $0.0659$

2% of the students at Hamilton Middle School have red hair. There are 700 students at Hamilton Middle

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

14 students

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a percentage proportion to find 2% of 700.

$\frac{x}{700} = \frac{2}{100}$ , and we can use the cross products property to find the value of x.

$700\cdot2=1400\\\\1400\div100=14$

Hope this helped!
