Camilla thinks that -5 is less than -7 because 5 is smaller than 7.explain why Camilla is correct

1 answer:

Think of a vertical number line. The positive values count down as we move down this number line. The negative numbers count up, so to speak, as we move down the number line. So we have -1, -2, -3, ... as we move down. This indicates that -5 is <u>not</u> smaller than -7.

With a fair die, the probability of rolling any number 1 through 6 is the same.

The probability of all possible outcomes is always 1, meaning 100%.

In this case the probability of rolling a 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 is:

1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6

6(1/6)

6/6

Lauren says that two expressions 3x+4(2x+5) and 6x +5x . do these equal the same

spin [16.1K]

<em>these do not equal the same. </em>

step by step: 3x + 4 (2x + 5)

multiply 4 by 2x, which is 8, then multiply 4 by 5, which is 20.

simplify; 3x + 8x + 20

combine like terms; (3x + 8x) + (20)

you’ll come up with 11x + 20

step by step: 6x + 5x
