Solve. (K+1)(k-5)=0<br> Explin how to solve ???
Anna71 [15]
Alright remember, if any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0. 
k+1=0
k-5=0
Set the first factor equal to 0 and solve
k=-1
Set the next factor equal to 0 and solve
k=5
The final solution is all the values that make (k+1)(k-5)=0 true. 
k=-1, 5

Hope this helped you out :)

On Saturday, many tickets for a hockey game were sold. Children and adult tickets were sold in the ratio of 4:7. There are 88 ti
Illusion [34]

Answer:

49 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is pretty straight forward

So we have the ratio 4:7

We know there were 88 tickets in total but we don’t know the exact amount of adult and kids

So we can Add up the ratio

4+7=11

Now we can divide 88 by 11

you’ll get 7

So by doing this we know there are 7 groups of the ratio for child to adults 4:7

So we just multiply the 7 to each

4*7

7*7

you’ll get 28:49

Now we know there are 28 kid tickets and 49 adult tickets

We know this is correct becuase if you add up the ratio, it’ll be 88

Which is the same as the amount fo people at the hockey game

Assume that random guesses are made for eight multiple choice questions on an SAT test, so that there are n= 8 trials, each with
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

0.80589

Step-by-step explanation:

So all of the numbers of correct answers less than 4 are 0,1,2,3

We need to calculate the probability for each separately and then add them together.

To find the probability we have to first find the combination. We know that there’s n=8 trials and that p=0.3. So 1-0.3 gives us 0.7.

The combination formula is: ! / (!(−)!)

So the n would always =8, and the r would be 0,1,2,3. So you would have to calculate it for 0,1,2,3 Separately. This can be done by hand or you can use a simple combinations calculator online.

For 0;

The combination is 1,

1 x 0.3^0 x 0.7^8-0 =

0.057648

For 1;

The combination is 8,

8 x 0.3^1 x 0.7^8-1 =

0.19765

For 2;

The combination is 28

28 x 0.3^2 x 0.7^8-2 =

0.296475

For 3;

The combination is 56

56 x 0.3^3 x 0.7^8-3 =

0.254122

All that’s left is to add these four numbers;

0.057647 + 0.19765 + 0.296475 + 0.254122 = 0.80589
