Answer: x=1 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic formula is -b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } /2

a=1 b=2 c=-3

Substitute

(-2+-\sqrt{2^{2}-4(1)(-3) }) /2\\(-2+-\sqrt{4+12}) /12\\(-2+-\sqrt{16}) /2\\(-2+-4) /2\\x=\frac{-2+4}{2} \\x=\frac{-2-4}{2} \\\\\\Simplify\\x=\frac{2}{2} \\\\x=\frac{-6}{2} \\\\Simplify\\x=1\\x=-3

AlekseyPX

Answer:

It is a case of classical probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are selecting a number between 1 and 100 randomly which is divisible by 14 the only favorable cases are 14,28,42,56,70,84,98 which are 7 cases out of 100 total numbers thus the required probability becomes

P(E)=\frac{7}{100}=0.07

A new car that is a gas- and electric-powered hybrid has recently hit the market. The distance travelled on 1 gallon of fuel is
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the distance travelled on 1 gallon of fuel is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = the distance travelled.

µ = mean distance

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 50 miles

σ = 8 miles

A) P(x > 53) = 1 - P(x ≤ 53)

For x = 53,

z = (53 - 50)/8 = 0.38

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to the z score is 0.648

B) P(x < 42)

For x = 42

z = (42 - 50)/8 = - 1

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to the z score is 0.1587

C) P(44 ≤ x ≤ 53)

For x = 44

z = (44 - 50)/8 = - 0.75

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to the z score is 0.2266

For x = 55,

z = (55 - 50)/8 = 0.63

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to the z score is 0.7357

Therefore,

P(44 ≤ x ≤ 53) = 0.7357 - 0.2266 = 0.5091

A lamp was on sale for 25% off its regular price of $80. Craig had a coupon that took an additional 25%
hram777 [196]

Answer:

$45

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price changed from $80 to 60, then with the coupon another 25% was taken off leading it to come to a price of $45

$80 x .75 = 60

$60 x .75 = 45

(.75 is for the price of the original value that he will be paying later)
