Answer:

  (x + 1)(x + 9) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

After you subtract 16 from both sides, you get ...

  x² +10x +9 = 0

When you factor this equation, it becomes ...

  (x +1)(x +9) = 0

_____

For the zero product property to be of any use, the form of the equation must be a product that equals zero.

___

<em>Comment on the other answer choice</em>

(x -1)(x -9) = 0 = x² -10x +9 . . . . . the x term is different from that in the given equation. It has the wrong sign.

180 students in a tenth grade high school class take a survey about which video game consoles they own.
Fantom [35]

Answer:

P(A) = 44.44%

P(B) = 50%

P(B|A) = 37.5%

P(B|A) different from P(B).

A and B are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a total of 180 students, and 80 of them have a Playstation, we have that P(A) = 80/180 = 0.4444 = 44.44%

If we have 90 students that have a Xbox, we have that P(B) = 90/180 = 0.5 = 50%

If we have 30 students that have both consoles, we have that P(A and B) = 30/180 = 0.1667 = 16.67%

To find P(B|A), we will find for a student that has an Xbox inside the group of students that has a Playstation, that is, we have 30 students in a total of 80 students, so P(B|A) = 30/80 = 0.375 = 37.5%

P(B|A) is different from P(B), the first is 37.5% and the second is 50%, so events A and B are independent events.
