Answer:

f(x) = (x+10)^2 - 86

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 20x - 86
f(x) = x^2 + 20x + 100 - 86 (because (20/2)^2 = 100)
f(x) = (x+10)^2 - 86

Completing the square means you do (b/2)^2 where b is: a^2x + bx + c.

Tyler selects one card from the three(4,5, and a King), and rolls a number cube. What is the probability that she selects the 5,

Svet_ta [14]

$\frac{1}{3}$ Answer:

2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

given that Tyler selects one card from the three(4,5, and a King), and rolls a number cube.

We find that A the event of selecting one card and B getting a number on rolling a number cube are independent events.

No of cards = 3

Prob of selecting 5 from 3 cards = $P(1,2,3, or 4) = \frac{2}{3}$

When rolling a number cube (assuming fair) there is equally likely for all numbers to appear from 1 to 6

Prob of getting 5 = $\frac{1}{6}$

Prob of getting less than 5 =

Since these two events are independent,

the probability that she selects the 5, and rolls a number less than 5

= Product of probabilities

= $\frac{1}{3}$ * $\frac{2}{3}$

= $\frac{2}{9}$
