X(x+2)-(1/3)x=150
x²+2x-(1/3)x-150=0
x²+(5/3)x-150=0
3x²+5x-450=0
this does not produce an integer, because b²-2ac=5²+4*3*450=5425, and √5425=73.6546 is not an integer.

Wade and Alexandra are 240 feet apart when they start walking toward one another. Alexandra walks twice as fast as Wade so whene
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The initial distance between Wade and Alexandra is 240ft.

They walk towards each other.

Alexandra walks twice as fast as Wade.

Now, because they are walking towards each other, when the distance walked by both of them equals 240 ft, they will meet.

Then:

if Wade walks z ft, Alexandra walks 2*z ft.

So we have the equation:

Distance that Wade walked + Distance that Alexandra walked = 240ft

z + 2*z = 240ft

3*z = 240ft

z = 240ft/3 = 80ft

They will meet when Wade walks 80ft.

Butoxors [25]

Thwre are 28 clients who don not play any of the instrument using the principle of Venn distribution.

<u>Using a Venn diagram analogy</u> :

  • Total number of client, U = 108
  • Piano, P = 42
  • Guitar, G = 51
  • Piano and Guitar, (PnG) = 13
  • None =?

<u>From the information given</u> :

  • P only = 42 - 13 = 29
  • G only = 51 - 13 = 38

<u>The total number of clients can be related thus</u> :

  • Total = P only + G only + PnG + None

108 = 29 + 38 + 13 + None

108 = 80 + None

None = 108 - 80

None = 28

Therefore, the number of clients who do not play any of the instruments is 28

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

0.0656

Step-by-step explanation:

For each message, we have these following probabilities:

90% probability it is spam.

10% probability it is legitimate.

Compute the probability that the first legitimate e-mail she finds is the fifth message she checks:

The first four all spam, each with a 90% probability.

The fifth legitimate, with a 10% probability.

P = (0.9)^{4} \times 0.1 = 0.0656
