Answer:

  x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the simplified form, we can subtract 22x to get ...

  6x -56 = -65

  6x = -9 . . . . . . . . add 56

  x = -9/6 = -3/2 . . . . divide by 6 and simplify

The solution of the equation is x = -3/2.

_____

<em>Check</em>

Substituting -3/2 for x in the original equation, we get ...

  4[-3/2 +2(3(-3/2) -7)] = 22(-3/2) -65

  4[-3/2 +2(-23/2)] = -33 -65

  4[-3/2 -23] = -98

  4[-49/2] = -98 . . . . . . . true

Answer:

The probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child is 1/4 or 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

possible outcomes for the children's genders

{FFFF, FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF, MFFM,​ MFMF, MMFF,​ FFMM, FMFM,​ FMMF, FMMM,​ MFMM, MMFM,​ MMMF, MMMM}

= 16

To find,

the probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child

<h3>Probability = favourable outcomes / possible outcomes</h3>

favourable outcomes = {FFFM,​ FFMF, FMFF,​ MFFF}

                                    = 4

Probability = 4 / 16

                  = 1 / 4

                  = 0.25

Use Synthetic Division to divide 6x^3-10x^2+20 by x+1<br><br> Quotient:_____<br><br> Remainder:_____
exis [7]

Answer:

the quotient is 6x^2 - 16x + 16, and the remainder is just 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial 6x^3-10x^2+20 has coefficients {6, -10, 0, 20}.  Division by the binomial x + 1 requires that we use -1 as the divisor.  The synthetic division setup becomes:

-1   /    6    -10    0    20

                 -6    16   -16

     -----------------------------

          6     -16   16       4

Taking the coefficients {6, -16, 16}, we write the quotient as

6x^2 - 16x + 16, and the remainder as just 4.
