Answer:
x = 15 or x = -
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross- multiplying gives
(14x + 6)(17x + 5) = 9x(27x + 11) ( expanding factors )
238x² + 172x + 30 = 243x² + 99x
rearrange into standard form : ax² + bx + c = 0
5x² - 73x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form
consider the factors of the product 5 × - 30 = - 150 which sum to the coefficient of the x-term (- 73 )
the factors are - 75 and + 2
Use these factors to split the middle term
5x² - 75x + 2x - 30 = 0 ( factor by grouping )
5x(x - 15) + 2(x - 15) = 0 ← take out the factor (x - 15)
(x - 15)(5x + 2) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 15 = 0 ⇒ x = 15
5x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = -
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a fair coin is flipped twelve times.
It means the number of possible sequences of heads and tails would be:
2¹² = 4096
We can determine the number of ways that such a sequence could contain exactly 9 tails is the number of ways of choosing 9 out of 12, using the formula
Plug in n = 12 and r = 9
∵
∵
Thus, the probability will be:
Thus, the probability of the coin landing tails up exactly nine times will be:
