(x - p)(2x² + 9x + 10) = (x² - 4)(2x + q)
2x³ + 9x² + 10x - 2px² - 9px - 10p = 2x³ + qx² - 8x - 4q
<u>-2x³                                                  -2x³                          </u>
         9x² + 10x - 2px² - 9px - 10p = qx² - 8x - 4q
        <u>          +8x                                        +8x          </u>
                   9x² + 18x - 2px² - 9px = qx² - 4q

(36 - 4t) squared.
Flura [38]

Answer: 4(3-t)(3+t)

Step-by-step explanation:

after you find the GCF you will have 4(9-t) squared. since 9 is square you will after to put the square root of 9 (which is 3) into the equation when you factor it further. therefore giving you 4(3-t)(3+t). if you un- factored your equation you would get 4(81-t) because 9x9 is 81 not 3. hope this helps. just learned this too lol

A competition to catch the most rainbow trout on Lake Rainbow pitched the men against the ladies. 16 men and 12 women participat
Valentin [98]

The probability that a participant successfully catches 3 rainbow trout, given that the participant was a woman is 0.0042.

P(woman) = 12/28

= 3/7

P(men) = 16/28

= 4/7

P(3 trouts) = P(3 trout | women)*P(woman) + P(3 trout | men)*P(man)

= P(3 trout | women)*(3/7) + (15C3 * (0.09^3)*(1-0.09)^(15*3))*(4/7)

= P(3 trout | women)*(3/7) + (0.00476)*(4/7)

P(woman | 3 trout) = P(3 trout | women)*P(woman) / P(3 trouts)

{P(3 trout | women) = p}

p*(3/7) / (p*(3/7) + (0.00476)*(4/7)) = 0.40

p*(3/7)/0.40 = (p*(3/7) + (0.00476)*(4/7))

p*((3/7)/0.40 - (3/7)) = (0.00476)*(4/7)

p = [(0.00476)*(4/7)] / [((3/7)/0.40 - (3/7))]

= 0.0042

The time taken for 21000 spectators to vacate the stadium , if only 15 exits are functional is 28 minutes .

In the question ,

it is given that

the time taken to vacate the stadium = 20 minutes

number of exits = 25 exits

capacity of the stadium = 25000 spectators .

given that ,

time taken to exit the stadium varies directly with number of spectators and inversely with the number of exits .

time taken ∝ number of spectators ∝ 1/number of exits .

to remove the proportionality sign , we write the constant

time taken = k * (number of spectators)/(number of exits) .

20 = k * 25000/25

20 = k * 1000

k = 20/1000

k = 2/100

k = 1/50 = 0.02

So, to find the time taken for 21,000 spectators to vacate the stadium, if only 15 exits are functional , we use the formula

time taken = (0.02)*(21000/15)

= 0.02*1400

= 28

Therefore , The time taken for 21000 spectators to vacate the stadium , if only 15 exits are functional is 28  minutes .
