Carter stated that 5(x + 9) - 3x is the same as 2x + 45. Lori disagreed with him and said that an equivalent expression is 2x + 9. Who was right?

Carter;

5 ( x + 9 ) - 3x = 2x + 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the equation;

5 ( x + 9 ) - 3x

Distribute the 5, remember, you have to distribute 5 over both terms.

5x + 45 - 3x

Combine like terms;

2x + 45

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
