In decreasing order:
439.612, 439.261, 439.216, 439.126
Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Letter P is drawn - Impossible because there is no paper with P on it.
Letter drawn is a consonant - Likely because there are 6 out of 8 letters which are consonants.
Letter drawn is a vowel - Unlikely because there are only 2 vowels out of 8 letters.
Letter drawn is one of the first ten letters in the alphabet - Equally likely as there is 4 of these out of a total of 8.
Letter is L - Unlikely as there is only 1 piece of paper with L on it.
The paper draw has one letter on it - Certain as there is a letter on all the pieces of paper.
Answer:
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentation:
x^2 - 10x = -8
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
x^2 - 10x + 25 = -8
x^2 - 10x - 25 = -33
Begin with x^2 - 10x = -8. Here's the process for completing the square:
1. Take half of the coefficient of x and square the result:
(1/2)(-10) = -5, and then (-5)^2 = + 25
2. Add this 25 to the first two terms of x^2 - 10x = -8 and also to the constant -8: x^2 - 10x + 25 = -8 + 25, or x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
3. Match this result to one of the given possible answers. Turns out that the given possible answer matching our result is the first one:
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
Eight less than the product of 2 and a number x is: 2x-8
