Are the expressions -0.5(3x + 5) and
-1.5r+2.5 equivalent? Explain why or why not.

2.5(3 + x) = 2.5 · 3 + 2.5 · 7.5 + 2.5x

So, as you can see, 7.5+2.5x = 7.5+2.5x ⇒ 2.5(3+x) and 2.5x+7.5 are equivalent equations.

no he doesnt because "-16' is negatiive

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

a cube has 6 sides

the probability of getting 5 on the first cube is 1/6 since only one side of the cube has 5 on it.

there are 3 sides of the cube with even number on it [2,4,6]

therefore the probability of getting even number is 3/6

for both events to happen together, the probability would be

1/6 x 3/6 = 12/36

which simplifies to 1/12
