Simplify the expression by combining like terms. -14 - 2x - 10 + 3y + 8x - 16y

a
-24 + 6x - 13y
b
4 + 6x - 13y
c
-24 + x - 8y
d
4 + x - 8y

B

-14 - 2x - 10 + 3y + 8x - 16y

Put everything in order so it is easy to combine like terms.

-2x + 8x + 3y - 16y - 14 - 10

Combine like terms. That means that you should add both x's together, add both y's together, and add both numbers together.

6x - 13y - 24

B is your answer! If you are confused on why B looks different, it is becuase the variables/numbers are in mixed up places. I hope this helps you!

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
