The ratio 9:7 gives you following statement:

  • Carl will win in 9 cases from 9+7=16;
  • Carl will lose in 7 cases from 16.

Then the probability that Carl will lose is

Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Answer: Pr(\text{Carl will lose})=\dfrac{7}{16}.

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since p and v vary inversely then the equation relating them is

p = \frac{k}{v} ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition p = 8 when v = 40

k = pv = 8 × 40 = 320

⇒ p(v) = \frac{320}{v} → B

X^4-28x^2=0 solve algebraically
Paha777 [63]
x^4 - 28x^2  = 0

x^2(x^2 - 28) = 0

x^2 = 0 \ \ or \ \ (x^2 - 28) = 0

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x^2 = 28

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x = \pm \sqrt{28}

x = 0 \ \ or \ \ x = \pm2 \sqrt{7}

---------------------------------------------------
Answer : x = 0 or 2√7 or -2√7
