Step-by-step explanation:
It seems here that they are asking us to solve for x
to do this we first need to factor
Since we can't factor this using the normal method we can instead do this
x^2 -4x-17=0
add 4 to both sides as it is a perfect square
x^2 - 4x + 4 = 17 +4
(x-2)^2 = sqrt 21
x-2 = ± 4.58
x -2 = 4.58 x-2 = -4.58
x= 6.58 x=-2.58
Or just say x=2+√21 or x=2−√21
6x plus 3x plus 4 minus 2
You want the explanation. Or answer?
Answer:
5/8+3/4-2/3-5/6
= ( 5/8 + 3/4 ) - ( 2/3 + 3/4)
= ( 11/8) - (17 /12)
= 11/8 - 17/12
= 33-34 /24
= -1/24 (ans)
Hope it helps
Answer:
5/24 or 20.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability that the 7th grader is a boy = number of boys/(total kids) = 4/(4+4) = 1/2
Probability that the 8th grader is a boy = 5/(5+7) = 5/12
Probability that both are boys = 1/2*(5/12) = 5/24 or 20.8%
