How to solve -2p^2=16p+24

Mathematics

Add  2p²  to each side of the equation.  Then you have

                 2p² + 16p + 24  =  0 .

Before you roll up your sleeves and start working on it, you can make it
even more convenient if you divide each side by  2 .  Then you have:

                 p² + 8p + 12 = 0 .

Now you have a nice, comfortable, familiar-looking quadratic equation. 
You can either factor the left side into  (p + 6) (p + 2), or, if you can't find
the factors, you can apply the quadratic formula to it.

That's how to solve it, and find its two solutions.

From the problem, we have the following given
u = 5
x = 0

We use the Poisson distribution probability formula:
P = (e^-μ) (μ^x<span>) / x! 
Substituting
P = (e^-5) (5^0) / 0!
P = 0.0067
</span>
The probability is 0.0067 or 0.67%<span />

Two similar triangles have have areas of 75 m2 and 12 m2. find the ratio of the perimeters
soldi70 [24.7K]

we know that having similar triangles so the ratio of sides,area and volume are same.

s/s=s^2/s^2

we know that s^2 will be the area of triangle.

s^2/s^2=75/12

so s/s=\sqrt{75/12}

so the ratio of the perimeter of two triangles will be

(s+s+s)/(s+s+s)=(\sqrt{75} +\sqrt{75} +\sqrt{75} )/(\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{12} +\sqrt{12} )

ratio of the perimeter=\sqrt{225} /\sqrt{36}
