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.

Naddik [55]

Answer:

The probability  that an applicant does not get a job if he or she has an interview is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If the applicant has been interviewed, then she/he belongs to the group of 20 people that had an interview.
  • 16 of the 20 people who were interviewed were offered a job, which means that 4 of the 20 people interviewed were not offered a job.
  • Then, 4/20= 20% of the people who were intervied did not get a job, which means that the <u>probability that an applicant does not get a job if he/she were interviewed is 20%</u>.
  • Pat attention: this probability results from analysing the probability of getting a job once you have had an interview (this condition restricts our attention to the group of 20 people who had an interview, and not to the hole group of 500 people who did apply for the job).
