Answer:
Γ = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 8x + Γ
with a = 1, b = - 8 and c = Γ , then
sum of zeros α + β = - 
= - 
= 8
product of zeros = αβ = 
= Γ
Given α - β = 2 , then
(α - β)² = 2²
α² - 2αβ + β² = 4 → (1)
and
(α + β)² = 8²
α² + 2αβ + β² = 64 → (2)
Add (1) and (2) term by term
2α² + 2β² = 68 ( divide through by 2 )
α² +β² = 34
Substitute α² + β² = 34 into (1)
34 - 2αβ = 4 ( subtract 34 from both sides )
- 2αβ = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
αβ = 15
Now
αβ = Γ = 15
Thus
f(x) = x² - 8x + 15
Answer:
16.1
Step-by-step explanation:
p-6.1=10
p=6.1+10
p=16.1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a 1/12 probability that volume 1 will be correctly put in position 1.
If we assume that volume 1 is right, then since there are then only 11 books left to choose from, there is then a 1/11 prob that volume 2 will be in position 2. And so on. By the same reasoning there is 1/10 prob that volume 3 is then right, 1/9 prob for volume 4, 1/8 prob for volume 5, and 1/7 prob for volume 6,
and 1/6 prob for volume 7,and 1/5 prob for volume 8,and 1/4 prob for volume 9,and 1/3 prob for volume 10,and 1/2 prob for volume 11,and 1/1 prob for volume 12.
So the probability is 1 /(12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1 / 479,001,600 ....
