Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Always do opposite. E.g, opposite of square is square root.

x(x + 4) = 6

expand brackets

x^2 + 4 = 6

minus 4 from both sides

x^2 = 6 - 4

square root everything

x = \sqrt{6-4}

The solution to the equation x(x+4) = 6 is x = -2 + √10 or x = -2 - √10 after solving with the quadratic formula.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

Any equation of the form \rm ax^2+bx+c=0 where x is variable and a, b, and c are any real numbers where a ≠ 0 is called a quadratic equation.

As we know, the formula for the roots of the quadratic equation is given by:

\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

We have an equation:

x(x + 4) = 6

By distributive property:

x² + 4x = 6

x² + 4x - 6 = 0

a = 1, b = 4, c = -6

Plugging all the values in the formula:

\rm x = \dfrac{-4 \pm\sqrt{4^2-4(1)(-6)}}{2(1)}

After calculating:

\rm x = \dfrac{-4 \pm\sqrt{40}}{2}

\rm x=-2+\sqrt{10},\ \ \ or \ \ \ x=-2-\sqrt{10}

Thus, the solution to the equation x(x+4) = 6 is x = -2 + √10 or x = -2 - √10 after solving with the quadratic formula.

Twelve percent of U.S. residents are in their forties. Consider a group of nine U.S. residents selected at random. Find the prob
miskamm [114]

Answer:

The probability is 28 % ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, there are only two possible outcomes in every trails ( residents are in their forties or not ),

So, this is a binomial distribution,

Binomial distribution formula,

Probability of success in x trials,

P(x)=^nC_x p^x q^{n-x}

Where, ^nC_x=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

p and q are probability of success and failure respectively and n is the total number of trials.

Let X be the event of resident who are in his or her forties.

Here, p = 12% = 0.12,

⇒ q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88,

n = 9,

Hence, the probability that two or three of the people in the group are in their forties = P(X=2) + P(X=3)

^9C_2 (0.12)^2 (0.88)^{9-2}+^9C_3 (0.12)^3 (0.88)^{9-3}

=36(0.12)^2 (0.88)^7+84(0.12)^3 (0.88)^6

=0.279266611163

\approx 0.28

=28\%
