Okay, so let's find the actual failure rate first. 6/1000 times 100 (to give over a 100%) equals to 0.6. The actual failure rate is 0.6%. The theoretical probability is 0.2% 0.6-0.2=0.4. The difference is 0.4%.
Hope that helped!
2x^2 - 2x - 40 = 2x^2 -10x + 8x - 40 = 2x(x - 5) + 8(x - 5)
= (x-5)(2x+8) = 2(x-5)(x+4)
So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)
you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2
here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)
now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8
to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8
The above is the answer :)
Answer:
okay so you multiply the price of the snakes by how much he bought which is $5.00 so you can subtract $5 - $8 and you get $3.00 so that is how much is left over. Now you want to divide $3.00 by 2 and now you get $1.50. So each soda costed $1.50
Using substitution:
4x+2y=12
y=8x+1
4x+2(8x+1)=12
distribute
4x+16x+2=12
combine like terms
18x+2=12
subtract 2 from both sides
20x=10
divide each side by 20
x=10/20
reduce
x=1/2
plug in x for the y= equation
y=8(1/2)+1
multiply
y=4+1
add
y=5
answer:
(1/2,5)
