Answer:

  • a = 3/2
  • b = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

  \dfrac{\sqrt{5}-1}{\sqrt{5}+1}=\dfrac{(\sqrt{5}-1)(\sqrt{5}-1)}{(\sqrt{5}+1)(\sqrt{5}-1)}\\\\=\dfrac{5-2\sqrt{5}+1}{5-1}=\dfrac{6-2\sqrt{5}}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{5}

Comparing this to the form a+b√5, we see that ...

  a = 3/2

  b = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the theoretical probability that the family has two dogs or two cats? (1/2)

The choices are dd, dc, cd, cc

There are 4 choices = dd or cc/ total = 2/4 = 1/2

Let the heads of the coin be dogs and the tails of a coin be cats

Flip two coins and coin A is the first pet and coin B is the second pet

heads , heads = 10

heads, tails  14

tails heads  =13

tails tails =  13

          total 50

Experimental probability  2 dogs or 2 cats = ( hh, tt) /total = ( 10+13) /50 =                    23/50

If we had 3 pets  

what is the theoretical probability that they have three dogs or three cats?

ddd, ddc, dcd, dcc, ccc, ccd ,cdc, cdd

There are 8 options

 ddd or ccc/ total = 2/8 = 1/4

Let the heads of the coin be dogs and the tails of a coin be cats

Flip three coins and coin A is the first pet and coin B is the second pet Coin C be the third pet
