Answer: $\frac{2}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of yellow marbles in the bag = 2

The total number of marbles in the bag = $6+2+4+1=13$

Now, the probability of reaching into the bag and selecting a yellow marble is given by:-

$P(\text{yellow})=\frac{\text{yellow marble}}{\text{total marbles}}\times100\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(\text{yellow})=\frac{2}{13}$

Hence, the probability of reaching into the bag and selecting a yellow marble= $\frac{2}{13}$

1) Determine the discriminant of the 2nd degree equation below:

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

$\LARGE{ \boxed{ \mathbb{ \color{purple}{SOLUTION:}}}}$

We have, Discriminant formula for finding roots:

$\large{ \boxed{ \rm{x = \frac{ - b \pm \: \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} }}}$

Here,

x is the root of the equation.
a is the coefficient of x^2
b is the coefficient of x
c is the constant term

1) Given,

3x^2 - 2x - 1

Finding the discriminant,

➝ D = b^2 - 4ac

➝ D = (-2)^2 - 4 × 3 × (-1)

➝ D = 4 - (-12)

➝ D = 4 + 12

➝ D = 16

2) Solving by using Bhaskar formula,

❒ p(x) = x^2 + 5x + 6 = 0

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 5\pm \sqrt{( - 5) {}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times 6 }} {2 \times 1}}}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 24} }{2 \times 1} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 5 \pm 1}{2} }}$

So here,

$\large{\boxed{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = - 2 \: or - 3}}}$

❒ p(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 2 \pm \sqrt{ {2}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times 1} }{2 \times 1} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 2 \pm \sqrt{4 - 4} }{2} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - 2 \pm 0}{2} }}$

So here,

$\large{\boxed{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = - 1 \: or \: - 1}}}$

❒ p(x) = x^2 - x - 20 = 0

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - ( - 1) \pm \sqrt{( - 1) {}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times ( - 20) } }{2 \times 1} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ 1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 80} }{2} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{1 \pm 9}{2} }}$

So here,

$\large{\boxed{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = 5 \: or \: - 4}}}$

❒ p(x) = x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{ - ( - 3) \pm \sqrt{( - 3) {}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times ( - 4) } }{2 \times 1} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 + 16} }{2 \times 1} }}$

$\large{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = \dfrac{3 \pm 5}{2} }}$

So here,

$\large{\boxed{ \rm{ \longrightarrow \: x = 4 \: or \: - 1}}}$

What is the constant of proportionality?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate. The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other.

They could help people understand AI but I mean, the things are made of 'unobtainium' so... I doubt anyone would be able to figure out their hardwiring in the first place.
