2x² + 5x -6x - 15 = 0
2x² - x - 15 = 0
2x² -x = 15
x = 3
3 x 3 = 9 x 2 = 18 - 3 = 15
i really don't know how i got 3 in the first place but that is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial distribution with n = 5, p = 0.55, q = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45, x = 0, 1, 2, 3
P(x) = nCx p^x q^(n - x)
P(x ≤ 3) = 1 - P(x > 3) = 1 - [P(4) + P(5)]
P(4) = 5C4 x (0.55)^4 x (0.45) = 0.2059
P(5) = 5C5 x (0.55)^5 x 1 = 0.0503
P(x ≤ 3) = 1 - (0.2059 + 0.0503) = 1 - 0.2562 = 0.7438
Answer:
Karen: 15; Dale: 9; Tom: 60
Step-by-step explanation:
"Karen and Dale and Tom sent a total of 84 messages during the weekend."
k + d + t = 84
"Dale sent six fewer messages than Karen"
d = k - 6
"Tom sent four times as many as Karen."
t = 4k
Substitute k - 6 for d and 4k for t in the first equation.
k + d + t = 84
k + k - 6 + 4k = 84
6k - 6 = 84
6k = 90
k = 15
d = k - 6 = 16 - 6 = 9
t = 4k = 4(15) = 60
Answer: Karen: 15; Dale: 9; Tom: 60
