The correct option is B. Distributive property

Given,

\frac{2}{3} x+7=-5\\

On solving the above equation,

multiplying both sides by 3 we, get

2x+21=-15

now subtracting 21 from both the sides,

2x=-36\\

dividing both the sides by 2 we get,

x=-18

Since in the above steps we follow all the giving property except the distributive property.

Hence the correct option is B. Distributive property.

An unbiased coin is tossed 15 times. In how many ways can the coin land tails either exactly 8 times orexactly 5 times?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Probability to get tails exactly 8 times or exactly 5 times is 0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

No of ways the coins lands tails exactly 8 times

P(8) = 15C8 × 0.5^{8} × 0.5^{15-8}

No of ways the coin lands tails exactly 5 times

P(5) = 15C5 × 0.5^{5} × 0.5^{15-5}

Probability to get tails exactly 8 times or 5 times

P(8)+P(5) =  15C8 × 0.5^{15} + 15C5 × 0.5^{15}

P = 0.5^{15} (  15C8 + 15C5 )

P = 0.5^{15} ( (  \frac{15!}{8!(15-8)!}  ) + ( \frac{15!}{5!(15-5)!} ) )

P = 0.5^{15} ( 6435 + 3003 )

P = 0.5^{15} ( 9438)

P = 0.5^{14} ( 4719)

P =  \frac{4719}{16384}

P = 0.29

Answer:

Factor, in mathematics, a number or algebraic expression that divides another number or expression evenly—i.e., with no remainder. For example, 3 and 6 are factors of 12 because 12 ÷ 3 = 4 exactly and 12 ÷ 6 = 2 exactly. The other factors of 12 are 1, 2, 4, and 12. A positive integer greater than 1, or an algebraic expression, that has only two factors (i.e., itself and 1) is termed prime; a positive integer or an algebraic expression that has more than two factors is termed composite. The prime factors of a number or an algebraic expression are those factors which are prime. By the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, except for the order in which the prime factors are written, every whole number larger than 1 can be uniquely expressed as the product of its prime factors; for example, 60 can be written as the product 2·2·3·5.

A cheerleading squad consists of ten cheerleaders of ten different heights. How many ways are there for the cheerleaders to line
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

11340

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 10 cheerleaders of ten different heights. There are two rows each having 5 positions so that five cheerleaders occupy the first row that have height less than the five cheerleaders who occupied the second row.

Therefore, Out of ten cheerleaders, two cheerleaders will be selected out of which the tallest one will occupy the position in the upper row and the second one will occupy in the lower row, therefore these two positions will be occupied in 10C_{2} ways. Now, we are left with 8 cheerleaders and following the same path, the next two positions will also be occupied in 8C_{2}ways, similarly, following the same path, the number of ways the cheerleaders will occupy the position will be: 10C_{2}×8C_{2}×6C_{2}×4C_{2}×2C_{2}

=11340
