Answer: 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that annie picks a duck Pt= the probability of picking a duck without accounting for the added one (Po)+ probability of picking the added bird and it's a duck(Pi)
Pt = Po+Pi
Since the total number of birds in the right pond is 10 after the addition of one by john
Po= 4/10
Pi= the of john adding a duck × the probability of annie picking the added bird
Pi= 4/9 × 1/10
Pi = 4/90
Pt= 4/10 + 4/90
Pt = (36+4)/90
Pt=40/90
Pt= 4/9
(This implies that the probability of picking a duck remain the same even after the addition of one bird from the left ponds because they both have equal proportions of duck and geese i.e the initial number of duck and geese in both right and left ponds are 4 and 5 respectively)
Thanks.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite this in standard quadratic equation form: x^2 - 7x + 6 + 8 = 0, or x^2 - 7x + 14 = 0. This does not factor easily, so I will use the quadratic formula to find the roots and then write out the factors based upon the roots:
The discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, which here is (-7)^2 - 4(1)(14) = -7.
Because the discriminant is negative, we know that there are two unequal, complex roots. They are:
-(-7) ± i√7 7 ± i√7
x = ----------------- = ---------------
2 2
One factor is (x - [1/2]{7 ± √7} )
Using the distributive property an equivalent expression would be 9z-54
