Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9x² - 3x - 2 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 9 × - 2 = - 18 and sum = - 3

The factors are - 6 and + 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

9x² - 6x + 3x - 2 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3x(3x - 2) + 1(3x - 2) ← factor out (3x - 2) from each term

(3x - 2)(3x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x = \frac{2}{3}

3x + 1 = 0 ⇒ 3x = - 1 ⇒ x = - \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a person answered incorrectly is 4/5

P(1st answered incorrectly AND 2nd answered incorrectly AND

3rd answered incorrectly AND 4th answered incorrectly AND

5th answered incorrectly AND 6th answered incorrectly AND

7th answered incorrectly AND 8th answered incorrectly)

Since "AND" mean to multiply, the probability that none of the 8 guessed correctly is

4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5

=(4/5)^8

=0.16777216
