They each have a 1/100 chance hypothetically. The chance they both pick it would be 1/100 ×1/100= 1/10000

This would be 1/10000 of a chance.

Write a quadratic equation with the given roots. Write the equation in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0 where a b and c are integers

Bas_tet [7]

You haven't provided the required roots, but I can tell you how to do this kind of exercises in general.

If the $x^2$ coefficient is 1, i.e. the equation is written like $x^2+bx+c=0$ , then you can say the following about the coefficients b and c:

$b$ is the opposite of the sum of the roots
$c$ is the multiplication of the roots.

So, for example, if we want an equation whose roots are 4 and -2, we have:

$4+(-2) = 4-2 = 2 \implies b = -2$
$4 \cdot (-2) = -8 \implies c = -8$

So, the equation is $x^2-2x-8=0$

If your roots are rational, you can work like this: suppose you want an equation with roots 3/4 and 1/2. You have:

$\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4} \implies b = -\dfrac{5}{4}$
$\dfrac{3}{4} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{8} \implies c = \dfrac{3}{8}$

And so the equation is

$x^2 - \dfrac{5}{4} + \dfrac{3}{8} = 0$

In order to have integer coefficients, you can multiply both sides of the equation by 8:

$8x^2 - 10 + 3 = 0$

In the straightedge and compass construction of the parallel line below, which of the following reasons can you use to prove tha

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines EG and CD are cut by transversal CF.

By construction, ∠FEG=∠FCD. These two angles are corresponding angles.

Since two corresponding angles are congruent, then lines EG and CD are parallel (by converse of the corresponding angles postulate).

Converse of the Corresponding Angles Postulate: If the corresponding angles formed by two lines and a transversal are congruent, then lines are parallel.
