Answer: x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in a standard form of equation as;

y = ax^2 + bx + c, and therefore, the axis of symmetry is given by the formula,

X = - b / 2a.

Therefore using that in the question, a = 1 and b= 6

Therefore, the axis of symmetry is:

x = - (6) / 2(1) which gives

x = - 3

Find the probability of at least 2 girls in 8 births. assume that male and female births are equally likely and that the births

Afina-wow [57]

At least two girls means either 2, 3 ... or 8 girls.
Using the binomial law, we can write the probability in the form:
B(2,0.5)+B(3,05)+...+B(8,0.5)= $0.0039(C_8^2+...+C_8^8)$
Continue simplifying:
$C_8^2+...+C_8^8=2^8-C_8^1=2^8-8=248\\\text{We deduce the probability of the event "at least two girls in birth ":}\\0.0039\times248=0.96\\\text{The above probability (0.96) means that the event is very likely}$
