there are 16 socks in the drawer

probablility of 2 white socks  or  2 black socks

6/16 *5/15  + 10/16*9/15   no replacement on socks

30/240 + 90/240

120/240

1/2

|\Omega|=C(16,2)=\dfrac{16!}{2!14!}=\dfrac{15\cdot16}{2}=120\\|A|=C(6,2)+C(10,2)=\dfrac{6!}{2!4!}+\dfrac{10!}{2!8!}=\dfrac{5\cdot6}{2}+\dfrac{9\cdot10}{2}=15+45=60\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{60}{120}=\dfrac{1}{2}=50\%

Write a quadratic function in standard form with a leading coefficient of 1 for the given set of zeros. 7 and 4
Viefleur [7K]

We are given : Zeros x=7 and x=4 and leading coefficent 1.

In order to find the quadratic function in standard form, we need to find the factors of quadratic function first and the multiply by given leading coefficent.

For the given zeros x=7 and x=4, we get the factors (x-7) and (x-4).

So, we need to multiply (x-7) and (x-4) by foil method.

We get

(x-7)(x-4) = x*x + x* -4 -7*x -7*-4

x^2 -4x -7x +28.

Combining like terms, we get

-4x-7x = -11x

x^2 -4x -7x +28 = x^2 -11x +28.

Now, we need to multiply x^2 -11x +28 quadratic by leading coefficent 1.

We get

1(x^2 -11x +28) = x^2 -11x +28.

Therefore, the required quadratic function in standard form is x^2 -11x +28.
