Answer:

Therefore, the probability is P=1/84.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a  bag contains 3 red and 6 white tokens. Tokens are randomly selected and removed one at a time until the bag is empty.

We conclude that in a bag have 9 tokens.  

We calculate the probability that the red tokens are drawn consecutively.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

C_3^9=\frac{9!}{3!(9-3)!}=84\\\\

Number of favorable combinations is 1.

Therefore, the probability is P=1/84.

Solve the following new equation
mixer [17]

Answer:

<h3>x = 1.54 or x = - 4.54 to 2 decimal places</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 3x - 7 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

a = 1 b = 3 c = - 7

x =  \frac{3 ± \sqrt{ {3}^{2} - 4(1)( - 7) }  }{2(1)}  \\  x =  \frac{ - 3± \sqrt{9 + 28} }{2}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{ -3 ± \sqrt{37} }{2}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 3 +  \sqrt{37} }{2}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: or \:  \:  \: x =  \frac{ - 3 -  \sqrt{37} }{2}  \\  \\ x = 1.54 \:  \:  \: or \:  \: x =  - 4.54

Hope this helps you

Which number line represtents the solution to |x+4|=2?​
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Points -2 and -6 on the number line are the two solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the definition of absolute value as a starting point

|x|=x\,\,\mbox{for}\,\,x\geq 0\\|x|=-x\,\,\mbox{for}\,\,x

To solve the equation, you need to treat the two cases as above:

|x+4|=x+4=2\,\,\,\mbox{for}\,\,x+4\geq 0\implies x\geq -4\\x+4=2\implies x=-2

The solution x=-2 is consistent with the condition x>=-4, so it is the first and valid solution. Now the second case of the absolute value:

|x+4|=-(x+4)=2\,\,\,\mbox{for}\,\,x+4< 0\implies x

Again, the second solution -6 complies with the requirement that x<-4, so it is valid.

How Can you divide that
Archy [21]
First you ask yourself, can 8 go into 1?  The answer is no.  Can 8 go into 12? Yes, 1 time.  So you put 1 on top of the 2 and subtract 8 from 12.  That gives you 4.  Then you pull down the 8 from 128 and ask how many times can 8 go into 48?  The answer is 6.  So your answer is 16.  Hope I helped!
