Marika solved the equation (6x + 15)2 + 24 = 0. Her work is below. 1. (6x + 15)2 = –24 2. = 3. 6x + 15 = 4. 6x = – 15 5. x = Ana

lyze Marika’s steps. Which statement is true about her work? In step 2, Marika should have simplified to be . There are no real solutions to this equation because the square root of a negative number is not a real number. There should be two real solutions to this equation because = . Marika correctly solved this equation.

Given equation: $(6x + 15)^2 + 24 = 0.$

First step Marika applied to get rid 24 from left side.

24 is added on left side of the equation.

The reverse operation of addition is subtract.

So, we need to subtract 24 from both sides in first step.

$(6x + 15)^2 + 24-24 = 0-24$

On simplifying it gives:

$(6x+15)^2= -24.$ .

Then she took square root to get rid square from left side .

But we can see that 24 is a negative number.

So, we can't take square root of 24.

Therefore, in second step the did some mistake:

<h3><em>There are no real solutions to this equation because the square root of a negative number is not a real number.</em></h3>

An Airliner has a capacity for 300 passengers. If the company overbook a flight with 320 passengers, What is the probability tha

TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability is $P(X >300 ) = 0.97219$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The capacity of an Airliner is k = 300 passengers

The sample size n = 320 passengers

The probability the a randomly selected passenger shows up on to the airport

$p = 0.96$

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

$\mu = n* p$

=> $\mu = 320 * 0.96$

=> $\mu = 307.2$

Generally the standard deviation is

$\sigma = \sqrt{n * p * (1 -p ) }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{320 * 0.96 * (1 -0.96 ) }$

=> $\sigma =3.50$

Applying Normal approximation of binomial distribution

Generally the probability that there will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers is mathematically represented as

$P(X > k ) = P( \frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma } > \frac{k - \mu}{\sigma } )$

Here $\frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma } =Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{300 - 307.2}{3.50} )$

Now applying continuity correction we have

$P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{[300+0.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > \frac{[300.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )$

=> $P(X >300 ) = P(Z > -1.914 )$

From the z-table

$P(Z > -1.914 ) = 0.97219$

So

$P(X >300 ) = 0.97219$

Mark and Robyn used base- ten blocks to show that 200 is 100 times as much as 2. Whose model makes sense? Whose model is nonsens

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Robyn model makes more sense and Marks is nonsense.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question ,calculations not required .All we have to do is consider each model logically .

Marks

Marks model shows 20 rather than 2 which means 200 is 10 times as much as 20. It does not make any sense.

Robyn

Robyn model shows 2 which means 200 is 100 times as much as 2 and this is not only correct but also makes sense because 100 *2=200
