Answer: -6

Multiply 3 by -2 first =-6 inside brackets

Original 6 inside brackets plus -6 from performing multiplication problem inside the brackets equals 0, so you now have 0 minus the original -6 which equals -6 overall

Factor out the coefficient of the variable 5/6s+2/3

DochEvi [55]

Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?

5/6 ( )

so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have

5/6 ( s )

but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?

5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )

now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.

2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15

we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.

= 4/5

so our final answer would be:

5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!

Determine the fraction of total interest owed using the rule of 78. After the six month of a 12 month loan, the numerator is: {(

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The fraction of total interest owed is $\frac{57}{78}$

The value of it to the nearest tenth is 73.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve it using the rule of 78

∵ The loan = 12 month

∵ The numerator is after 6 month

- Substitute n by 1 in each bracket

∴ The numerator = {(1 + 11) + (1 + 10) + (1 + 9) + (1 + 8) + (1 + 7) + (1 + 6)}

∴ The numerator = {12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7}

∴ The numerator = {57}

∴ The numerator of the fraction is 57

∵ The denominator = {(n) + (n + 1) + (n + 2) + .......... + (n + 11)}

- substitute n by 1 in each bracket

∴ The denominator = {1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 11 + 12}

∴ The denominator = {78}

∴ The denominator of the fraction is 78

The fraction of total interest owed is $\frac{57}{78}$

Now find the value of the fraction

∵ The fraction = $\frac{57}{78}$

∴ Its value = 0.7307692308 × 100%

∴ Its value = 73.07692308%

- Round it to the nearest tenth

∴ Its value = 73.1%

The value of it to the nearest tenth is 73.1%

You are certain to get a red card when selecting 27 cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a

fgiga [73]

Answer:

If something is guaranteed, it has a probability of 100%, or 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard deck has 52 cards. Of these, half are red cards (diamonds and hearts) and half are black cards (clovers and spades)

Half of the deck is 26 cards (52 ÷ 2 = 26), so you have 26 red and 26 black cards.

What this means in our context is, if we draw 27 cards, even if we drew all 26 black cards, we would still have 1 red card.

So the probability is 100%, or 1, of drawing a red card when we pick 27 cards from a deck, no matter how it's shuffled
