Answer:

Option A, F and G are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$8.\frac{1}{8}+(-1)+5=5$

We have to select the statement that justify the above expression.

LHS is

$8.\frac{1}{8}+(-1)+5$

$\text{Here, }\frac{1}{8} \text{is the inverse of 8 which is to be multiplied}$

∴ inverse-muliplication

Now, there are 3 terms

1+(-1)+5 which is to be solved

Now, first two are to be added i.e

Associative-addition and commutative-addition takes place.

Hence, option A, F and G are correct.

FromTheMoon [43]

Virgil has 1/6 of the original cake, which he wants to divide into 4 parts. Thus:
1/6 / 4
= 1/6 x 1/4
= 1/24

Each person will receive 1/24 of the original cake.

Two movie tickets and 3 snacks are $24. Three movies tickets and 4 snacks are $35. How much is a movie ticket and how much is a

Vsevolod [243]

Answer: A movie ticket is $9 while a snack is $2

Step-by-step explanation: We shall let a movie ticket be m while a snack is s. So, from the clues given, if two movie tickets and three snacks cost $24, we can write it as the following expression;

2m + 3s = 24

Also if three movie tickets and four snacks cost $35, we can as well write another expression as follows;

3m + 4s = 35.

Now we have a pair of simultaneous equations which are

2m + 3s = 24 ----------(1)

3m + 4s = 35 ----------(2)

We shall solve this by using the elimination method, since none of the variables has a coefficient of 1. We'll start by multiplying equation (1) by 3 and multiplying equation (2) by 2 (so as to eliminate the m variable)

2m + 3s = 24 -------- x3

3m + 4s = 35 ---------x2

We now arrive at the following

6m + 9s = 72--------(3)

6m + 8s = 70--------(4)

Subtract equation (4) from equation (3) and we arrive at

s = 2

Having determined that s equals 2 we can now substitute for the value of a into equation (1)

2m + 3s = 24

2m + 3(2) = 24

2m + 6 = 24

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

2m + 6 - 6 = 24 - 6

2m = 18

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

m= 9

Therefore one movie ticket costs $9 while one snack costs $2

Integration by substitution is related to what differentiation method? What type of integrand suggests using integration by su

xeze [42]

Integration by substitution is an integration method meant to "undo" the chain rule for differentiation. This method is useful for some integrands containing compositions of functions.

For example, substitution is good for finding the antiderivative of 2x•cos(x^2). The quadratic function nested inside the cosine function suggests that substitution might be useful. And it is... the antiderivative is sin(x^2)+C

The answer is Choice C.

Player V and Player M have competed against each other many times. Historical data show that each player is equally likely to wi

Helen [10]

Answer:

0.46 (46%)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

- Probability that player V wins the first set:

$p(1)=0.50$

(because the text says the two players are equally likely to win the first set)

- Probability that player V wins the 2nd set if he has won the 1st set:

$p(2|1)=0.60$

So, the probability that player V wins the first 2 sets is:

$p(12)=p(1)\cdot p(2|1)=(0.50)(0.60)=0.30$ (1)

Instead, the probability that player V loses the 2nd set if he has won the 1st set is 0.40 (=1-0.60), so

$p(2^c|1)=0.40$

So, the probabiity that player V winse the 1st set but loses the 2nd set is

$p(12^c)=p(1)\cdot p(2^c|1)=(0.50)(0.40)=0.20$ (2)

Also, we have:

- Probability that player V loses the 1st set:

$p(1^c)=0.50$

- Probability that she will lose the 2nd set in this case is 0.70, it means that the probability that she will win the 2nd set if she lost the 1st set is 0.30, so:

$p(2|1^c)=0.30$
