Aleksandr-060686 [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

\huge\boxed{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of y=ax^2+bx+c is equal b^2-4ac.

We have the equation:

x^2+2x+5=0\to a=1,\ b=2,\ c=5

Substitute:

b^2-4ac=2^2-4(1)(5)=4-20=-16

Find the number of pairs (a,b) of integers such that<br> a+2/a+5=b/3
Viktor [21]

Answer:

  6

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression can be rearranged to ...

  b = 3 -9/(a+5)

In order for b to be an integer, (a+5) must be an integer divisor of 9. There are exactly 6 of those: ±1, ±3, ±9.

The attached table shows the values (a, b) = (x₁, f(x₁)).

The video states that 78% of people carry less than $50 in cash; 40% carry less than $20 in cash, and 9% carry no cash. Suppose
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The probability that 12 people in your sample are carrying no cash is 0.0712

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 100

p(no cash) = 0.09

x = 12

By applying binomial distribution

P(x,n) = nCx*px*(1-p)(n-x)

P(x = 12) = 0.074.

The probability that 12 people in your sample are carrying no cash is 0.074.

n = 100

p(less than 50) = 0.78

x = 75

By applying binomial distribution

P(x,n) = nCx*px*(1-p)(n-x)

P(x = 75) = 0.0712

The probability that 12 people in your sample are carrying no cash is 0.0712
