Solve the system of equations. y = x + 2, y = x2 + 7x + 10

Monica [59]3 years ago

Answer:

(- 2, 0 ) and (- 4, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 2 → (1)

y = x² + 7x + 10 → (2)

Since both equations express y in terms of x we can equate them, that is

x² + 7x + 10 = x + 2 ( subtract x + 2 from both sides )

x² + 6x + 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 2)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of y

x = - 2 : y = - 2 + 2 = 0 ⇒ (- 2, 0 )

x = - 4 : y = - 4 + 2 = - 2 ⇒ (- 4, - 2 )

Solutions are (- 2, 0 ) and (- 4, - 2 )

Answer: 1/2

First you do 4/4 times 4/4. Which is equal to 1. Then, you multiply by 2/4 to get 1/2.

Answer:

10.

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

0.707

There is 70.7% chance that at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost

12.

1.14≅1

There will be one adult out of three we expect to believe in the ghost

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution is constructed using binomial distribution.

We have to construct the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults. so,

x=0,1,2,3

n=3

p=probability of adults believe in ghosts=0.38

The binomial distribution formula

nCxp^xq^n-x=3cx0.38^x0.62^3-x

is computed for x=0,1,2,3 and the results depicts the probability distribution of the number adults believe in ghosts out of three adults.

x P(X)

0 0.238

1 0.438

2 0.269

3 0.055

11.

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )= P(x=1)+P(x=2)=0.437+0.269=0.707

P(at least one but at most two adults in the sample believes in the ghost )=70.7%

12. E(x)=n*p

here n=3 adults and p=0.38

E(x)=3*0.38=1.14

so we expect one adult out of three will believe in the ghosts.

there is a 20% discount with a set of tires in normally sells for $368. How much will be tires cost after the discount?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Same as before, if we take 368 to be the 100%, how much is 20% off that?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
368&100\\
d&20
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{368}{d}=\cfrac{100}{20}\implies \cfrac{368\cdot 20}{100}=d

so, the discount is that much, thus, the discounted price is then 368 - d.
