This is an example of binomial probability (pass/fail), with n=8 and p(failure)=0.3.

The probability that none will fail is binompdf(8,0.3,0) = 0.0576.
The prob. that all will fail is found by subtracting this result from 1.0000, and is 1.0000-0.0576=0.9424.  "All" is the "complement" of "None."

I used my TI-83 Plus calculator's probability distribution functions to calculate the probability that none will fail.

8.Find the value of c that makes the expression be a perfect square trinomial p^2-30p+c
Darina [25.2K]
Hope this is the right one.

Problem 8
p^2 - 30p + c
<em>Step One</em>
Take 1/2 of - 30
1/2 * -30 = - 15

<em>Step 2
</em>Square -15
(-15)^2 = 225
c = 225

Problem Nine
\text{x = }\dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} &#10;
a = 1
b = 4
c = -15
\text{x = }\dfrac{ -4 \pm \sqrt{4^{2} - 4*1*(-15) } }{2*1}
\text{x = }\dfrac{ -4 \pm \sqrt{\text{16} + \text{60} } }{2}

x = [-4 +/- sqrt(76)] / 2
x = [-4 +/- 2*sqrt19]/2
x = [-4/2 +/- 2/2 sqrt[19]
x = - 2 +/- sqrt(19) 

x1 = - 2 + sqrt(19)
x2 = -2 - sqrt(19)

These two can be broken down more by finding the square root. I will leave them the way they are.  It's just a calculator question if you want it to go into decimal form.

Problem Ten

a = 1
b = 4
c = -32

The discriminate is sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)
D = sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)
D = sqrt(4^2 - 4(1)(-32)
D = sqrt(16 - - 128)
D = sqrt(16 + 128)
D = sqrt(144)
D = +/- 12

Since D can equal + or minus 12 there must be 2 possible (and different) roots. As a matter of fact, this quadratic can be factored.
(x + 8)(x - 4) = y 
But that' s not what you were asked for.
The discriminate is >  0 so the roots are going to be real.
<em>Answer; The discriminate is > 0 so there will be 2 real different roots.</em>

What are the intercepts of this function f(x)=-8x+4
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the x-intercept:

Make y=0

0=-8x+4

8x =4

x=4/8

x=1/2

to find y-intercept:

Make x=0

y=-8(0) +4

y=4

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=7 and m<LMN = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

if MO bisects LMN then 13x - 31 must be equal to x + 53

13x - x = 53 + 31

12x = 84

x = 7

and

13x - 31 + x + 53 = m<LMN

14x + 22 = m<LMN

since x is 7

14×7 + 22 = 120

Arisa [49]

(a) One possibility is 8.45

Rounded to the nearest integer = 8

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 8.5

And rounding this to the nearest integer = 9

 

(b) The possible numbers are 8.45 to 8.49, inclusively
