Answer:

\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}

                  x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

considering the equation

2x^2\:-\:4x\:-\:3\:=\:x

solving

2x^2\:-\:4x\:-\:3\:=\:x

2x^2-4x-3-x=x-x

2x^2-5x-3=0

\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=2,\:b=-5,\:c=-3:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-5\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

solving

x=\frac{-\left(-5\right)+\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:3}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+\sqrt{49}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5+7}{4}

x=3

also solving

x=\frac{-\left(-5\right)-\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5-\sqrt{\left(-5\right)^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:3}}{2\cdot \:2}

x=\frac{5-\sqrt{49}}{4}

x=-\frac{2}{4}

x=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore,

                 \mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}

                  x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}

3. Assume that the likelihood of a child under the age of ten watching PBS is 0.76. Three children are
natta225 [31]

Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.4159 = 41.59%.

b) 0.5610 = 56.10%.

c) 0.8549 = 85.49%.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are:

n = 3, p = 0.76.

Item a:

The probability is P(X = 2), hence:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.76)^{2}.(0.24)^{1} = 0.4159

Item b:

The probability is P(X < 3), hence:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)

In which:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.76)^{3}.(0.24)^{0} = 0.4390

Then:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.4390 = 0.5610 = 56.10%.

Item c:

The probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.4159 + 0.4390 = 0.8549

The formula Upper V equals LWH is used to find the volume of a box. If the length of a box is increased 4 times​, the width is i
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

the volume of the box increases 48 times compared to the 1st one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box (1) = LWH

  • length of a box is increased 4 time = 4L
  • width is increased 4 times​ = 4W
  • the height is tripled​ = 3H

=> The new volume of the box = 4L * 4W * 3H = 48LWH  

So the volume of the box increases 48 times compared to the 1st one.
