The probability of choosing a plain pencil from the first box is 5/8. The probability of choosing a color pencil from the second box is 3/12 which simplifies to 1/4. The probability of picking a plain pencil from the first box and picking a color pencil from the second box is 5/32 because 5/8 * 1/4 is 5/32

Final answer is 5/32 :)

Question 7 of 10<br> Choose two statements that are true for this expression.<br> 6r³ − 8x² - 40 +21
crimeas [40]

Based on the given parameters, bhe true statements are: the expression has four terms, and the term -40/y is a ratio.

<h3>How to determine the true statements?</h3>

The expression is given as:

6x^3 - 8x^2 - 40/y + 21

The above expression has four terms, and the terms are:

6x^3, - 8x^2,- 40/y and 21

Also, the term -40/y is a ratio

This is so because it is a quotient of two numbers

Hence, the true statements are: the expression has four terms, and the term -40/y is a ratio, based on the given parameters

Answer:

No real

solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us check if we would be having a real solution

We start by rewriting the equation

We have this as;

8x^2 -25x + 24 = 0

We proceed to get the discriminant

Mathematically, we have this as;

D = b^2 - 4ac

b is the coefficient of x which is -25

a is the coefficient of x^2 which is 8

c is the last number which is 24

So we have;

D = (-25)^2 - 4(8)(24)

D = 625 - 768 = -143

Since the value of the discriminant is negative, there cannot be real roots

What we have as solution are complex roots
