Answer:

X=1,  X=3  and  X=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (X-1)(X-3)(X+1):

# To find the rational values of X, we equate the equation to zero:

(X-1)(X-3)(X+1)=0\\\\X-1=0 \\\therefore X=1 \ \ \ \ ...i\\\\X-3=0\\\therefore X=3 \ \ \ \ \ ....ii\\\\X+1=0\\\therefore X=-1 \ \ \ \ \  ...iii

Hence for the values of X=3,X=1 and  X=-1 the expression equal 0

You decided to throw a fair die four times.
Finger [1]

Answer:

If all you care about is whether you roll 2 or not, you get a Binomial distribution with an individual success probability 1/6. The probability of rolling 2 at least two times, is the same as the probability of not rolling 2 at zero or one time.

the answer is, 1 - bin(k=0, n=4, r=1/6) - bin(k=1, n=4, r=1/6). This evaluates to about 13%, just like your result (you just computed all three outcomes satisfying the proposition rather than the two that didn’t).

Carlos jogged 5 laps around the school track in 8 minutes. What was his average speed in laps per minute? lap(s) per minute PLEA
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

To solve this problem, you would create two ratios and make them equal to each other, both representing laps:minute or laps/minute! With that being said, laps will be in the numerator, or on top, and minutes will be in the denominator, or the bottom! The first ratio, which we know from the problem, will be 5/8. In order to write the second ratio, we need to come up with something to put in place for what we're solving for. I like to use x. So, we need to find how many laps (x) are run in 1 minute. Remember, laps are on top and minutes are on the bottom. The second ratio would look like x/1. Then we make them equal to each other -> 5/8=x/1. You would then solve this equation by multiplying the right side of the equation by the reciprocal of the denominator! So, it would be 1/1(5/8)=x. Because then multiple the numerators and the denominators -> 1(5)=5 and 1(8)=8! This makes the equation turn into x=5/8! Because x equals the number of laps run in one minute, we can say that Ricky ran 5/8 of a lap in one minute or 0.625 laps in one minute!
