Here a=1, b= -5 and c= -3

so the discrim. is b^2 - 4(a)(c),   or   (-5)^2 - 4(1)(-3)  = 25 + 12 = 37.

Because the discrim. is +, you'll have 2 real, unequal roots.

OLga [1]

Answer:

probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple (P) = 0.7215

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Probability of damaged apples (p) = 12% = 0.12

number of samples (n) = 10

Consider,

x- number of apples damaged.

Using Binomial distribution formula:

P(x) = (nCx) (P)^x (1-p)^(n-x)

To find the probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple:

P(x≥1) = 1 - P(x<1)

          = 1 - P(x=0)

          = 1 - 10C_0 (0.12)^0 ( 1-0.12)^(10)

P(x≥1)  = 0.7215
