Step-by-step explanation:
y = 8x² + 8x - 96
y = 8(x² + x - 12)
y = 8(x + 4)(x - 3)
When y = 0, 8(x + 4)(x - 3) = 0.
=> x = -4 or x = 3. (B)
(a) The probability of drawing a blue marble at random from a given box is the number of blue marbles divided by the total number of marbles. We assume that the probability of selecting one of two boxes at random is 1/2 for each box.
... P(blue) = P(blue | box1)·P(box1) + P(blue | box2)·P(box2) = (3/8)·(1/2) + (4/6)·(1/2)
... P(blue) = 25/48 . . . . probability the ball is blue
(b) P(box1 | blue) = P(blue & box1)/P(blue) = (P(blue | box1)·P(box1)/P(blue)
... = ((3/8)·(1/2))/(25/48)
... P(box1 | blue) = 9/25 . . . . probability a blue ball is from box 1
all the coordinates of the original triangle have been multiplied by 1/2
A (-4,-6) x 1/2 = -2,-3
B (-8,2) * 1/2 = -4,1
C (-2,4) *1/2 = -1,2
so the scale factor is 1/2
Answer is B
