The slope = 17/8, while as the y - intercept = -5. The graph shown below will help give you a better understanding of what I'm saying.
The answer is (x-5) (x-1)
Answer:
x = 3 and x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve an absolute value equation, you create two equations, one where the right side is negated and one where the right side isn't:
| 2x + 9 | = 15 becomes:
2x + 9 = 15 and 2x + 9 = -15
2x = 6 and 2x = -24
x = 3 and x = -12
Why this works is that |-x| and |x| will both be equal to 0. Remember that absolute value is the distance a number is away from 0.
Answer:
25% probability that you complete the course
75% probability that you do not complete the course
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are a total of 4 individuals entering the race and only one is able to complete the course then the probability that you will complete the course would be
1/4 = 0.25 or 25%
This is because you only represent 1 out of the 4 total participants. The opposite would be the case to calculate the probability that you will not complete the course since there are three other candidates with that could have completed it, therefore...
3/4 = 0.75 or 75%
