Answer:

Hermione has 16 marbles. Harry has 24 marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Harry = y + 8

Hermione = y

y + 8 + y = 40

2y + 8 = 40

2y = 32

y = 16

Hermione has 16 marbles.

Harry has 24 marbles because 16 + 8 = 24.

Third-degree, with zeros of −3 , − 2 , and 1 , and passes through the point ( 3 , 11 ) .

Answer:

y = ( x + 3 ) * ( x + 2 ) * ( x - 1 )* 11/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets y = f(x) in a cartesian coordinates

Having three zeros:

x = -3 ⇒ x = -2 ⇒ and x = 1

That meas that if x takes the above mentioned values " y " must be zero

therefore y must be of the form

f (x) = y = ( x + 3 ) * ( x + 2 ) * ( x - 1 ) (1)

In that case for y to be zero one of the factors should be zero or

y = 0 x + 3 = 0 and x = - 3 is a zero of the function y .

The same reasoning applies for the other two roots

Now we have to evaluate the other condition.

According to problem statement the function passes through the point ( 3, 11 ) , that means that when x = 3 , y have to be 11, therefore we plug in equation (1) that value to see what happens

y = ( x + 3 ) * ( x + 2 ) * ( x - 1 )

11 = ( 3 + 3 ) * ( 3 + 2 ) + ( 3 - 1) = 6*5*2 = 60

Then we adjust the expression (1) to meet the condition of the function passing through point ( 3 , 11) as:

y = ( 3 + 3 ) * ( 3 + 2 ) + ( 3 - 1) * 11/60 (2)

and check to see if we did right

for y to be zero x can be x = - 3 x = -2 and x = 1 in all these cases y = 0. And if x = 3 in equation (2) y = 11. And that what we want to shown. Then the solution is:

y = ( x + 3 ) * ( x + 2 ) * ( x - 1 )* 11/60

While driving from his home to his workplace, Chris has to pass through two traffic lights. The general probability of getting a

Margarita [4]

A and B are dependent events.
The general probabilities of each event to happen separately is 36% for event A and 25% for event B. When considering that Chris passes one before passing the other, indicates that whether he gets the first light open or not will affect if he gets the other one also open or not. This can even be seen by noticing how the probability of Chris getting both red lights is 9%, a much inferior probability then considering both lights separately which means that one event has influence over the other.
