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

In which direction does the head of the molecules of the plasma membrane face?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

toward the outside

Step-by-step explanation:

The plasma membrane is composed of the phospholipid bilayer and cholesterol.The phospholipids have a head and two tails.The head is water loving, hence it is termed as polar/hydrophilic.The tails are nonpolar/ water fearing/hydrophobic.Both inside and outside the cell, water is vital thus the phospholipid line up in two layers where the head points outwards and the tails hidden in the middle.

You have a bag full of apples. There are 12 Jonathan (red), 6 Granny Smith (green), and 3 Golden Delicious (yellow) apples in th
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The total number of apples is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Number of green apples = 4

P ( that all three apples are green)

= (limit 4 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 4! / 3!(4−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 1 / 170

= 0.005

(b)

Number of red apples = 8

P(that all three apple are green)

=(limit 8 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 8! / 3!(8−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 7 / 85

= 0.082

Now,

P(that no three apple is red)= 1−0.082 = 0.918

c)

P(of selecting 4 apple that contain at least 2 red apples)

= (limit 8 and 2) /( limit 17 and 2) X (2/15) + (limit 8 and 3) /(limit 17 / 3) X (1/14)

= (7/34) × (2/15) + (7/85) × (1/14)

= 0.027 + 0.058

= 0.085

d)

P(that the second apple selected is yellow given that the first apple is red)

= (limit 5 and 1) / ( limit 16 and 1)

= 5! / 1!(5−1)!

= 16! / 1!(16−1)!

= 5 /16

= 0.3125
