The sum of eight and twice a number is 42

17

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 2n = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of eight:   ___+ 8

and twice(2) a number(could be any variable but for now i choose n):   2n + 8

is 42 (literally mean it equals 42):    2n + 8 = 42

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.

answer: it is 8

step-by-step explanation:

you know why its 8
