What is the discriminant of the polynomial below? 2x^2+3x-7

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option C. 65

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The discriminant of a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

D=b^{2}-4ac

in this problem we have

2x^{2} +3x-7  

so

a=2\\b=3\\c=-7

substitute

D=3^{2}-4(2)*(-7)

D=9+56

D=65

The time needed to complete a final examination in a particular college course is normally distributed with a mean of 77 minutes
Komok [63]

Answer:

a. The probability of completing the exam in one hour or less is 0.0783

b. The probability that student will complete the exam in more than 60 minutes but less than 75 minutes is 0.3555

c. The number of students will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given we have the following:

The time for completing the final exam in a particular college is distributed normally with mean (μ) is 77 minutes and standard deviation (σ) is 12 minutes

Hence, For X = 60, the Z- scores is obtained as follows:

Z=  X−μ /σ

Z=60−77 /12

Z=−1.4167

Using the standard normal table, the probability P(Z≤−1.4167) is approximately 0.0783.

P(Z≤−1.4167)=0.0783

Therefore, The probability of completing the exam in one hour or less is 0.0783.

b. In this case For X = 75, the Z- scores is obtained as follows:

Z=  X−μ /σ

Z=75−77 /12

Z=−0.1667

Using the standard normal table, the probability P(Z≤−0.1667) is approximately 0.4338.

Therefore, The probability that student will complete the exam in more than 60 minutes but less than 75 minutes is obtained as follows:

P(60<X<75)=P(Z≤−0.1667)−P(Z≤−1.4167)

=0.4338−0.0783

=0.3555

​

Therefore, The probability that student will complete the exam in more than 60 minutes but less than 75 minutes is 0.3555

c. In order to compute  how many students you expect will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time we have to first compute the Z−score of the critical value (X=90) as follows:

Z=  X−μ /σ

Z=90−77 /12

Z​=1.0833

UsING the standard normal table, the probability P(Z≤1.0833) is approximately 0.8599.

Therefore P(Z>1.0833)=1−P(Z≤1.0833)

=1−0.8599

=0.1401

​

Therefore, The number of students will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time is= 60×0.1401=8.406

The number of students will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time is 8

I’m pretty sure he could only make 1 rectangle with 5cm because it’s an odd number which means he couldn’t stack them on top of each other evenly like he could with the 6cm rectangles, so he’d only be able to line them up next to each other and that’s it (I hope that’s right; sorry if it’s not but it makes sense to me lol)

1)Make an area model(Table) or a tree diagram to model all the possible combinations in this situation. 2)What is the theoretica
Ann [662]

Answer:

Example:

A bag contains 3 black balls and 5 white balls. Paul picks a ball at random from the bag and replaces it back in the bag. He mixes the balls in the bag and then picks another ball at random from the bag.

a) Construct a probability tree of the problem.

b) Calculate the probability that Paul picks:

i) two black balls

ii) a black ball in his second draw

Solution:

tree diagram

a) Check that the probabilities in the last column add up to 1.

b) i) To find the probability of getting two black balls, first locate the B branch and then follow the second B branch. Since these are independent events we can multiply the probability of each branch.

ii) There are two outcomes where the second ball can be black.

Either (B, B) or (W, B)

From the probability tree diagram, we get:

P(second ball black)

= P(B, B) or P(W, B)

= P(B, B) + P(W, B)
