Place value is important because it helps you understand the meaning of a number. If people just used numbers randomly, no one would know which numbers people meant. You need place value to understand the order of numbers as well.

Numbers to the left of the decimal point are positive powers of 10 (in place value), and numbers to the right are negative powers of 10.

Which of the following is the solution set of x2 + 8x + 12 = 0?<br> (-2.-6<br> 2.6
algol [13]

To solve this polynomial equation, we first factor the left side.

To factor x² + 8x + 12 = 0, look for factors of 12 that add to 8.

These factors are 6 and 2 so we have (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.

So either x + 6 = 0 or x + 2 = 0 and solving for

x in each equation, our answer is {-6, -2}.

A population of voters contains 40% republicans and 60% democrats. it is reported that30% of the republicans and 70% of the demo
Blizzard [7]

To get the probability of selecting a person who is a democrat and is favour to the issue, let us first calculate for the portions in each party who is favour on the issue.

 

p (rep & favour) = 0.4 * 0.3 = 0.12

 

p (dem & favour) = 0.6 * 0.7 = 0.42

 

Therefore the total portions who are favour is:

p (favour) = 0.12 + 0.42 = 0.54

 

Hence the probability is:

P (dem & favour) = 0.42 / 0.54 = 0.7778 = 0.78

 

Therefore there is about 78% probability that the person selected who is favour to the issue is a democrat.
