Answer:

Probability = 1/30

Step-by-step explanation:

6 colored playing pieces: red, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white.

When you pick, the probability of picking yellow = no. of yellow / total no.

= 1/6

When your friend pick, only 5 pieces are left and the probability of picking blue = no. of blue / total no.

= 1/5

The probability that your friend picks the blue piece and you pick the yellow piece

= Probability of your friend picks the blue piece x Probability of ou pick the yellow piece

= 1/5 x 1/6

= 1/30

The values of k for the different quadratic equation solutions are as follows

a  the equation 2x² - x + 3k = 0 has two distinct real roots

  • k < 1/24

b. the equation 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0 has equal roots

  • k = 3/5

ci the equation -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0 has real roots

  • k > -3.25

d the equation 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0 has no real solutions

  • k < ± 1.633

<h3>How to solve quadratic equations to get different answers</h3>

Quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is solved using the formula

-b+\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}     OR     -b-\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

The equation b² - 4ac is called the discriminant and it is used as follows

To solve the equation and get two real roots: 2x² - x + 3k = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives

(-1)² - 4 * 2 * 3k > 0

1 - 24k > 0

1 > 24k

divide through by coefficient of k

k < 1/24

To solve the equation and get equal roots: 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac = 0

substituting the values gives

(-2)² - 4 * 5 * (2k - 1) = 0

4 - 40k + 20 = 0

-40k = -24

divide through by coefficient of k

k = 3/5

To solve the equation and get real roots  -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives  

(3)² - 4 * -1 * (k+1) > 0

9 + 4k + 4> 0

4k > -13

divide through by coefficient of k

k > -3.25

To solve the equation and get  no real solutions  3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0

  • b² - 4ac < 0

substituting the values gives  

(-3)² - 4 * 3k * 2 < 0

9 - 24k² > 0

9 > 24k²

divide through by coefficient of k²

k² < 24/9

k < ± 1.633

Angles 1 and 2 are complementary, and angle 1=3x+3 and angle 2=10x-4, find the degree measure of each angle
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The measure of the angles:

24°  and   66°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum 90°

then:

(3x + 3) + (10x-4) = 90

3x + 10x + 3 - 4 = 90

13x - 1 = 90

13x = 90+1

13x = 91

x = 91/13

x = 7°

then:

  • angle 1:

3x+3 = 3*7 + 3 = 21+3 = 24°

  • angle 2

10x - 4 = 10*7  - 4 = 70 - 4 = 66°

Check:

66° + 24° = 90°
