The probability of John making the first and missing the second is:
1)
x^2 + 4 = 0 Subtract 4 from each side
x^2 = -4
You cannot square a number to get a negative number. No real solution. (If you have learned about imaginary numbers, answer is 2i)
2)
<span>x^2+x-6=0 Factor. 3 and -2 add up to 1, and multiply to -6
(x+3)(x-2) = 0
Zero Product Property: Which numbers would put a zero in one of the parentheses?
x = -3 or x=2
3) </span><span>x^2-6x+7=0
Completing the Square:
Take half of b (-6), square it, and add/subtract that coefficient
x^2 - 6x + 9 - 9 + 7 = 0
(x -3)^2 - 2 = 0 Add 2 to both sides
(x-3)^2</span> = 2 Take the square root of both sides
<span>(x-3) = </span>√2 or -√2 Add 3 to both sides
<span>x = 3 + </span>√2 or 3 - √2<span>

Answer:
102
Step-by-step explanation:
12+12=24
24+3=27
27+50=77
77+25=102
A) 6 because 12 divided by 2 is 6
B) 9 because 45 divided by 5 is 9
C) 23 because 207 divided by 9 is 23
