Answer:

1/27

Step-by-step explanation:

If he has 9 coins in total which gives him a 1/9 chance to pull any random coin he would also have a 1/3 chance to pull a dime from the given 9 coins. YOu multiply the likelihood of the situations together to get a final probablity of 1/27

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of joint probability.

There are a total of (4 + 2 + 3) coins in his pocket:  9 coins.

The prob. of his choosing a dime on the first selection is 3/9, or 1/3, since there are 3 dimes out of a total of 9 coins.

Now there are 8 coins, 2 of which are dimes.  The prob. of choosing a dime on the 2nd selection is 2/8, or 1/4.

The joint probability is thus (1/3)(1/4) = 1/12.

Factor completely, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. <br> 6х^2 - 3х - 30
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

3(x + 2)(2x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6x² - 3x - 30 ← factor out 3 from each term

= 3(2x² - x - 10) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × - 10 = - 20 and sum = - 1

The factors are + 4 and - 5

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² + 4x - 5x - 10 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 2x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2) ← factor out (x + 2) from each term

= (x + 2)(2x - 5), thus

2x² - x - 10 = (x + 2)(2x - 5) and

6x² - 3x - 30

= 3(x + 2)(2x - 5) ← in factored form
