Carleen has 104 pieces of candy leftover from halloween. she would like to distribute them evenly to the 8 kids on her block. write an equation to show how many pieces of candy each kid will receive.
8 + x = 104
x = 104 − 8
x = eight divided by one hundred four
x = one hundred four divided by eight

What is the effect on the graph of the parent function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced with 3f(x)? a) shifts the line 3 units up b) shifts the line 3 units down c) increases the slope of the line by a factor of 3 d) decreases the slope of the line by a factor of 3

Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?

Which simplifys to a+ b? a-(1-b)+1 -(1-a)-b+1 (a--1) -1)+1
