We are to solve using completing the square:

1/4x² + x + 1/4 = 0

Let's collect like terms:

1/4x² + x = -1/4

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x-squared:

x² + 4x = -1

Take half of the coefficient of x, square it, then add to both sides:

x² + 4x + 4 = -1 + 4

factor the left side of the equation:

(x + 2)² = 3

Take the root of both sides;

x + 2 = ±√3

Add 2 to both sides:

x = ±√(3) - 2

x = -2 + √3 or x = -2 - √3

herefore, the correct option is B, which is x = -2 + √3 or x = -2 - √3

two teams play a series of games, wher both teams have an equal probability of winning each game. its a best- of-five series, so
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

With equal probability, hence

p for both teams = 0.5

First team to win three games win, probability that series lasts 5 games :

This means after 4 games each of the teams must have won 2 each ; and the series decider will be on the 5th game :

Each team winning two games and any of the teams could be the eventual winner :

From binomial relation :

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

q = 1 - p = 0.5

Team A :

Winning any 2 from 4 and winning the 5th

(4C2 * 0.5^2 * 0.5^2) * 0.5

0.375 * 0.5 = 0.1875

Team B :

(4C2 * 0.5^2 * 0.5^2) * 0.5

0.375 * 0.5 = 0.1875

Hence, the probability that series lasts five games is :

[4C2*0.5^2*0.5^2)*0.5]+[4C2*0.5^2*0.5^2)*0.5]

0.1875 + 0.1875

= 0.375

I'm not sure this is right, so please don't be mad if I got this completly wrong, but I think this is how you do it.  \frac{ 10q^{6} r^{8}  }{ 24r^{5} t^{2} q^{3}} next divide  \frac{5}{6}  q^{3}  r^{3}  t^{2}
