Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(m-2)+2(m-2)

3m-6+2m-4

3m+2m-6-4

5m-6-4

5m-10

The expressions 3(m-2)+2(m-2) and 50m-2 are not equivalent expressions.

After simplifying the first expression 3(m-2)+2(m-2) in part (a), we got 5m-10, which is different from the second expression, 50m-2.

Answer: 19 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amount invested $\$400$

Rate of interest $R=6\%$

after 1-year amount becomes

$A=400\left (1+6\%\right)\\A=400\left (1+0.06\right)\\A=400\times 1.06\\A=\$424$

After n years it is

$A=400\left (1.06\right)^n$

Sum accumulated is $\$1200$

$\Rightarrow 1200=400\left(1.06\right)^n\\\Rightarrow 3=\left(1.06\right)^n\\\text{Taking log both sides}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{\ln 3}{\ln 1.06}\\\\\Rightarrow n=18.85\approx 19\ \text{years}$

Problem If you roll two fair six-sided dice, what is the probability that the dice show the same number?

shusha [124]

Lets say yu are trying to roll a 4 on both of the dice the probability for both is 1/6 so multiply 1/6 × 1/6 and you get 1/36
so the probability for rolling the same number on each dice is 1/36
hope this helps!
