1. Vinay applied the distributive property to the equation -5(m - 2) - 25. His equation then became --5m + 10 = -125. Did he app

ly the distributive property correctly?
Explain
Yes. When using the distributive property you need to multiply all the terms in the equation by the number that is in front of the parentheses.
No. The product of -5 and 25 is 125, not - 125.
No. Vinay also multiplied the right-hand side of the equation by --5, which is incorrect.
Yes. Vinay multiplied the terms on the left-hand side of the equation by -5, which is what you are supposed to do.

Answer:

  • C. No. Vinay also multiplied the right-hand side of the equation by --5, which is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proper application of the property:</u>

  • - 5(m - 2) - 25 = -5m - 5(-2) - 25 = -5m + 10 - 25 = -5m - 15

Vinay multiplied 5 and 25 as well, which is incorrect.

Correct answer choice is C.

Which symbol correctly compares these two fractions?<br> 4/7 and 8/16
WITCHER [35]

Answer: 4/7 > 8/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw each fraction on a fraction bar (similar to a Hersey's Bar each fraction bar being the same length just broken up differently to represent each fraction) and you will see that 4/7 is bigger than 8/16.

Three national news networks are trying to estimate what percentage of
kolezko [41]

Answer:

  • <u>Option C. The Network C sample.</u>

Explanation:

The variability of a sample may be described by using some common statistics like the variance and the standard deviation.

The variance and the standard deviation measure the difference between the values of the data  and the mean. The variance is the average square of those differences or deviations. The standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

Thus, both variance and deviations, being an average of the differences of the data from the mean contain the number of data in the denominator of the equation.

That lets you know to conclude that the larger the number of data (the larger the sample) the smaller the variance and the standard deviation, this is the lower the variability of the data.

Hence, Network C, which has the greatest number of voters sampled (1,800) is likely to have the least variability.
