Total number of marbles = 17

3 are black.

Not black = 17 - 3 = 14.

Probability of not black =          Number not black / Total

                                       =     14 / 17

Could someone please answer question b) ii) ?<br> The question is on the attached image.
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

b) i) Curve A

ii) - 1.75

iii) x = 1 - √5  or x = 1 + √5

Step-by-step explanation:

b) i) We are given a function y = x² - 2x - 3 and the graph of this function is also shown in the side diagram.

The equation can be rearranged to y = (x - 1)² - 4

⇒ (x - 1)² = y + 4

Therefore, this is an equation of a parabola having the vertex at (1,-4) point and its axis is parallel to the positive y-axis.

So, the curve A represents the equation given. (Answer)

ii) Now, at x = 2.5, f(x) = 2.5² - 2 × 2.5 - 3 = - 1.75 (Answer)

iii) When y = 1, then x² -2x - 3 = 1

⇒ x² - 2x - 4 = 0

⇒ (x - 1)² - 5 = 0

⇒ (x - 1)² - (√5)² = 0

⇒ (x - 1 + √5)(x - 1 - √5) = 0

⇒ x = 1 - √5  or x = 1 + √5 (Answer)

Solve.<br><br> −7x = x2 + 12
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

x = - 4 , x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- 7x = x^2 + 12

Take all terms to one side of equation.

x^2 + 7x + 12 = 0

Find which 2 numbers multiply to give 12 and add to give 7.

a × b = 12

a + b = 7

a = 4

b = 3

Split the middle term using these 2 numbers.

x^2 + 4x + 3x + 12 = 0

Factorise each pair of terms separately.

x ( x + 4 ) + 3 ( x + 4 ) = 0

Bring out common factor of ( x + 4 ) and factorise.

( x + 4 ) ( x + 3 ) = 0

Using the Null factor law, make the expressions in each pair of parentheses equal 0.

x + 4 = 0

x = - 4

AND

x + 3 = 0

x = - 3

THEREFORE:

x = - 4 , x = - 3

9 is 12 percent of what number? ( show your work)
Rasek [7]
For this question, we want to find out what 9 / 12 equals as a percent or x / 100. Therefore, we have a proportion here and can say: 9/12 = x/100 Now, at this point, we can cross multiply to get: 900 = 12x Now, divide both sides by 12 to get x alone and find that: x = 75 <==== FINAL ANSWER
so 9 is 12% of 75!
I hope that helps you out! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
