Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -2

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1 :</u><u> Rearrange</u>

x² + 12x + 20 = 0

<u>Step 2:</u><u> Factorise</u>

(x + 2)(x + 10)

<u>Step 3:</u><u> Find the roots / values of x</u>

Make each bracket equal zero.

(x + 2) = x = -2

(x + 10) = x = -10

Hope this helps!

A spinner with 9 equal sections is numbered 1 through 9. The probability of spinning a 1 or a 9 is 2/9 .
USPshnik [31]
The answer would be 7/9. If the spinner has 9 sections and you want to know the probability of NOT landing on a 1 or a 9, you would subtract 2 from 9 since there are 2 numbers and 9 total.

9^1/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Rewrite 9 as 3^2

(3^2)^1/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Multiply the exponents in the first term:

3^2/3 * 3^x = 27^4/5

Use power rule to combine exponents:

3^(2/3 +x) = 27^4/5

Rewrite the 2nd term:

3^(2/3 +x) = (3^3)^4/5

Set the exponents only to equal:

2/3 + x = 3(4/5)

Solve for x:

simplify the right side:

2/3 + x = 12/5

Subtract 2/3 from both sides:

x = 26/15

Amar keeps picking playing cards out of a standard deck of 52 cards in the hopes that he will
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The required probability is, 0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

There are, (52 - 13) = 39 cards which are not spade

5 cards can be chosen from the deck of 52 cards in

^{52}{C}_{5}  ways

and out of these 5 choices, none of them will be spade in,

^{39}{C}_{5}  ways

So,

P(None of the chosen cards is spade)

= \frac {^{39}{C}_{5}}{^{52}{C}_{5}}

\simeq 0.22

Hence,

P(out of these 5 choices, at least one card is spade)

\simeq (1 - 0.22)

= 0.78
