Answer:

B = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

do the y2-y1 over x2-x1 to check

so 5-0 = 5

-2-3 = -5

-5/5 = -1 slope

points (-2, 5) and (3, 0)

The roots of the equation f(x) = x^2 - 93987 are x = √93987 and x = -√93987

<h3>What are quadratic equations?</h3>

Quadratic equations are equations that have a second degree and have the standard form of ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b and c are constants and the variable a does not equal 0

<h3>How to determine the other roots of the equation?</h3>

The equation of the function is given as:

f(x) = x^2 - 93987

The above equation is a quadratic equation

Express the equation as a difference of two squares

f(x) = (x - √93987)(x + √93987)

Set the equation of the function to 0

(x - √93987)(x + √93987) = 0

Split the factors of the above function equation as follows

x - √93987 = 0 and x + √93987 = 0

Solve for x in the above equations

x = √93987 and x = -√93987

Hence, the roots of the equation f(x) = x^2 - 93987 are x = √93987 and x = -√93987

Plz help me with my geometry asap 50 pts and brainliest NO SCAMMING OR I WILL REPORT
bearhunter [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You already got the first step, where D is the midpoint of AC and AB is congruent to BC, since it's given.

2. AD will be congruent to DC, via the definition of a midpoint (a midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, and it splits the segment into two congruent parts)

3. BD is equal to BD, via reflexive property. ( It's a shared side between the two triangles)

4. that means that ΔADB ≅ΔCDB via SSS rule.

5. ∠ABD ≅∠CDB by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The diameter of Circle P is the same length as the radius of Circle Q.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of Circle Q is half of 52cm. So you would divide 52 by 2 and get 26cm as the radius of Circle Q. Therefore, the length of the diameter of Circle P is the same length as the radius of Circle Q.

Real estate ads suggest that 56 % of homes for sale have​ garages, 27 % have swimming​ pools, and 16 % have both features. ​a) W
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

a) 0.4

b) 0.28

c) The events are not independent

d) The events are not mutually exclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Lets call:

Gar = {homes with garage}

Pool = {homes with pool},  

A = {homes with pool and garage}  = Gar ∩ Pool

The data we are given is:

P(Gar) = 0.56

P(Pool) = 0.27

P(A) = 0.16

a) B = {homes with garage but not pool}. This set B is the set Gar without set A: B = Gar / A  

P(B) = P(Gar) - P(A) = 0.4

b) This is a conditional probability:

P(Pool | Gar) = P(Gar ∩ Pool) / P(Gar) = 0.16/0.56 = 0.28

c) To be independent events, it must be, by definition:

P(Gar ∩ Pool) = P(Gar) * P(Pool)

0.16 ≠ 0.56*0.27 = 0.15

Then, the events Gar and Pool are not independent

d) Gar and Pool are not mutually exclusive, because there are houses with both pool and garage. We know that because P(A) is not zero.
