Answer:

C. X= -2.01 and x= 1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x {}^{2} + x + 10 = 0 \\ 3x {}^{2} + 6x - 5x + 10 = 0 \\ 3x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2) \\ (x + 2)(3x - 5 )\\ x + 2 = 0 \: \: or \: \: 3x - 5 = 0 \\ x = - 2 \: \: or \: \: x = \frac{5}{3}$

Ryan buys a bag of cookies that contains 8 chocolate chip cookies, 4 peanut butter cookies, 4 sugar

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

4/69 to be exact. Slightly greater than 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

The chance of selecting the PB cookie on the first try is 4 out of 24 or 1 out of 6. There are now 23 coolies left; 8 are chocolate, so 8/23 chance. (Slightly greater than 1/3) The chance of both events happening is the product if the individual events' chances. So multiply 1/6 times 8/23 to get 8/138. That reduces to 4/ 69. If he had put that first cookie back, the multiplication would have been 1/6×1/3. A lot easier.
