Answer:
Odds against the events are 7/9.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
Odds in favor of event = 2 : 9 or 2/9
Let,
These odds are out of 1.
The odds against the event would be
Odds against = 1 - 2/9
Odds against = 
Odds against = 
Therefore,
Odds against the events are 7/9.
Answer:
3rd option
Step-by-step explanation:
( factorise numerator and denominator )
3x² - 3 ← factor out 3 from each term
= 3(x² - 1²) ← x² - 1 is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)
x² - 1
= x² - 1²
= (x - 1)(x + 1) , then
3x² - 3 = 3²(x - 1)(x + 1) ← in factored form
--------------------------------
x² - 5x + 4
consider the factors of the constant term (+ 4) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
the factors are - 1 and - 4 , since
- 1 × - 4 = + 4 and - 1 - 4 = - 5 , then
x² - 5x + 4 = (x - 1)(x - 4)
then
= 
← in factored form
Answer:
1890, total cost of lights per week
Step-by-step explanation:
The lights cost 45 dollars per bulb and 6 go out per day, 45×6=270
270 is the cost to replace the bulbs of one day.
270×7=1890. 1890 is the cost for a whole weeks worth of replacing these bulbs.
Answers:
- C) Factored form
- C) Standard form
- D) The y intercept is -8
- B) Two solutions: x = -5 or x = 5
- B) Apply square root to both sides
=========================================
Explanations:
- For problems 1 and 2, there's not much to say other than you'll just have to memorize those terms. Standard form is ax^2+bx+c in general. The exponents count down 2,1,0. Factored form is where we have two or more factors multiplying with each other. Think of something like 21 = 7*3 showing that 7 and 3 are factors of 21.
- For problem 3, the y intercept is the last value. It's the constant value. Plug in x = 0 and you'll get y = -8 as a result. The y intercept always occurs when x = 0.
- In problem 4, we apply the square root to both sides to get x = -5 or x = 5. The plus or minus is needed. This is because (-5)^2 = 25.
- In problem 5, we apply the square root to both sides to undo the squaring operation.
