there are 8 letters

2/8 to get i on the first draw

1/7 to get i on the second draw (no replacement)

2/8 * 1/7 = 2/56

1/28


The probability is 1/28

Alona [7]

Answer:

X is a discrete random variable.

X can take values from 0 to 12:

X\in[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) X = the number of unbroken eggs in a randomly chosen standard egg carton

X is a discrete random variable.

The minimum amount of eggs broken is 0 and the maximum amount of eggs broken is 12 (assuming a dozen egg carton).

Then, X can take values from 0 to 12:

X\in[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]

About the probability ditribution nothing can be said, because there is no information about it (it can be a binomial, uniform or non-standard distribution).

Find the discriminant of the equation. x2 + 3x - 4 = 0
ivann1987 [24]

Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation: x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = -4.

The formula for the discriminant is b^2 - 4(a)(c).

Substituting the given values of a, b and c, we get:

(3)^2 - 4(1)(-4)

Evaluating this, we get 9 + 16 = 25.

The discriminant is 25.

-3 plus or minus √25

Taking this further, x = ------------------------------------

2

-3 plus or minus 5

or: x = -------------------------------- => {-4, 1} (solutions)
