We are given :
Step 1: factor the part inside square root
The function given inside square root is of quadratic form.
So let us try to factorise it using AC method.
Here A*C = 4*25 = 100
so we have to find factors of 100 that add up to give -20.
the two factors are -10 and -10.
Rewriting the function :
=
=
=
Step 2:
Now we take square root of the factorised form
=
Answer : (2x-5)
Answer: Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing
n ( 1 + n )
Step-by-step explanation:
P( Bob hits target ) = 1/3
P( Eve hits target ) = 2/3
P( Carol hits target ) = 1
<u>Compute the P that Bob wins in a duel against Eve alone</u>
P(Bob hits the target in first shot ) = n = 1/3
P(Bob hits the target in second shot ) = n^2 = ( 1/3 * 1/3 ) = 1/9
hence the probability of Bob winning( i.e. P( Bob wins Event E1 ) = n + n^2 = n ( 1 + n )
