An extraneous solution IS a(n)

Mathematics
1 answer:
max2010maxim [7]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>An invalid solution.</u>

When you use the quadratic formula, for example, to  solve for 't', time, you will often find one of the values of 't' to be  NEGATIVE value for time.....this would be an <u>extraneous</u> solution.      

   Sometimes when working with LOG equations you may fin an answer which is negative.....you cannot have a LOG of a negative number...THAT solution would be EXTRANEOUS

 ETC

SO, always check your answers to see if they 'work' for your problem.

Say you're playing three-card poker; that is, you're dealt three cards in a row at random from a standard deck of 52 cards. What
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 52 cards in total

there are total of 13 pairs of same cards with each pair containing 4 cards

Probability of getting a pair or three of kind card=1-Probability of all three cards being different

Probability of selecting all three different cards can be find out by selecting a card from first 13 pairs and remaining 2 cards from remaining 12 pairs i.e.

=\frac{52\times 48\times 44}{52\times 51\times 50}

for first card there are 52 options after choosing first card one pair is destroyed as we have to select different card .

For second card we have to select from remaining 12 pairs i.e. 48 cards and so on for third card.

Required Probability is =1-\frac{52\times 48\times 44}{52\times 51\times 50}

=\frac{22776}{132600}

What is the solution to w-11=1.3
trapecia [35]
<span>Simplifying w + -11 = 1.3
 
Reorder the terms: -11 + w = 1.3
 
Solving -11 + w = 1.3
 
Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '11' to each side of the equation. -11 + 11 + w = 1.3 + 11
 
Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0 0 + w = 1.3 + 11 w = 1.3 + 11
 
Combine like terms: 1.3 + 11 = 12.3 w = 12.3
 
Simplifying w = 12.3 <--- (Answer)

PLEASE HELP!! Compare &amp; Contrast how Completing the Square is used to Convert a quadratic function to vertex form with how i
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a general quadratic formula given as ax²bx+c = 0

To generate the general formula to solve the quadratic equation, we can use the completing the square method as shown;

Step 1:

Bringing c to the other side

ax²+bx = -c

Dividing through by coefficient of x² which is 'a' will give:

x²+(b/a)x = -c/a

- Completing the square at the left hand side of the equation by adding the square of half the coefficient x i.e (b/2a)² and adding it to both sides of the equation we have:

x²+(b/a)x+(b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a + b²/4a²

- Taking the square root of both sides

√(x+b/2a)² = ±√-c/a + b²/√4a²

x+b/2a = ±√(-4ac+b²)/√4a²

x+b/2a =±√b²-4ac/2a

- Taking b/2a to the other side

x = -b/2a±√√b²-4ac/2a

Taking the LCM:

x = {-b±√b²-4ac}/2a

This gives the vertex form with how it is used to Solve a quadratic equation.

Change 2 hours and 36 mins to a mixed number
defon
You know you have two hours which will be the whole number. Then you take 36min and put it over 60min (total number of min in an hour) and you simplify by 6 to get 6/10 which can be simplified again to 3/5 so your final mixed number is
2 and 3/5 hours

Need the steps too this
ruslelena [56]

The value of x  is 9.

We have :    - 25 = 7 - (5x - 13)

We have to find the value of x.

<h3>If f(x) = g(x), than what do you understand by true solution of this equation?</h3>

The true Solution of the equation is the value of x for which LHS = RHS.

For example - if  ax + b = cx + d , then

ax - cx = d - b

x = \frac{d-b}{a-c}   is the true solution of the equation.

In the question given -

- 25 = 7 - (5x - 13)

- 25 = 7 - 5x + 13

5x = 45

x = 9

Hence, the value of x for which LHS = RHS is 9.
