Answer:
6x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is asking for 4 less than a number times 6. Set this number equal to x, leaving us with 4 less than 6x, or 6x - 4.
A quadratic equation is set up in the form of ax² + bx +c
First set equation = to 0
0= x² - 5x - 24
Next plug into quadratic formula( -b Plus or minus the √b²-4ac) ÷ 2a
[10 plus or minus √(25² - 4×1×24)] ÷ 2
Solve for inner parenthesis first
√625- 96 = √529
Now set up two equations
(10 + √529) ÷2 = x = 16.5
(10 - √529) ÷2 = x = -6.5
So therefore x = 16.5 and -6.5
8 out of 52. There are 4 nine cards and 4 heart cards. There are 52 cards in the standard deck. So it is an 8 out of 52 chance that you will choose either a heart or a nine.
