a deck of 52 cards. If the ball is white, a card is drawn from the deck consisting of just the 16 pictures.

Answer:

a) \frac{47}{260}

b) \frac{3}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

a) There are two ways of getting a king; picking a green ball and then picking a king from the deck of 52 OR picking a white ball then picking a king from the pictures only deck of 16

P(king) = \frac{2}{5} *\frac{4}{52} +\frac{3}{5} *\frac{4}{16} = \frac{47}{260}

b) P(white ball, given king)= \frac{3}{5}*\frac{4}{16} =\frac{3}{20}

How many real roots would f(x)=<br> x^3+2x^2+2x-5 have
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

One real root

Step-by-step explanation:

By the fundamental theorem of algebra, an nth degree polynomial has n-possible real roots.

If there are complex roots, then the the complex roots come in pairs.

Therefore the number of possible real roots of f(x)=x^3+2x^2+2x-5 are 3 real roots with no complex pairs or 1 real root with a complex pair.

By Descartes rule of signs, there is only one change of sign in the polynomial (+ to -).

Hence there is only one positive real root.

f(-x)=-x^3+2x^2-2x-5

There is change is sign two times but we can not have even number of real roots for this polynomial

Therefore there is only real root.
