Answer:
Therefore the two values required are 2.08 and -11.08.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) f(x) = + 10x - 12 is a quadratic equation and a quadratic equation will have two roots whose values when substituted in to the given quadratic equation will give the value.
ii) The question is therefore essentially asking us to find the roots of the given quadratic equation.
This can be done by equating the given quadratic equation to zero and then solving the equation for its roots.
∴ + 10x -12 = 0 ⇒ x = (-10 ±
) ÷ 2
= (-10 ± 12.166)÷2 = 2.08, -11.08
Therefore the two values required are 2.08 and -11.08
Answer:
5/18
Step-by-step explanation:
When two cubes are rolled there are 36 possibilities
Each dice has 6 equally like outcomes so possibilities are
(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)
(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)
(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)
(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)
(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)
(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)
Now we look at the pair that has sum equal to 9
(3,6) (4,5) (5,4) (6,3) that has sum of 9
Probability of sum is 9 =
we look at the pairs that has sum greater than 9
(4,6) (5,5)(5,6) (6,4)(6,5)(6,6)
Probability of sum greater than 9 =
Probability of sum 9 or higher = P(sum 9) + P(greater than 9)
=
