Answer:

B.   1 over 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the probability of the spinner landing on 5, we need to first know what probability is,

probability = required outcome/all possible outcome

since the spinner is divided into 8 equal sections and each section contains number from 1-8, this implies there are total of 64 numbers on the spinner.  This implies that all possible outcome = 64

In each section there is 5, since there are 8 sections on the spinner, the number of 5's on the spinner are 8.

This implies that the required outcome = 8

but

probability = required outcome/all possible outcome

probability (of the spinner landing on 5) = 8/64    =1/8

Timothy uses 20 inches of yarn for knitting yarn every 5 minutes. How will he use in one hour?
Harman [31]

if Timothy uses 20 inches of yarn for knitting yard every 5 minutes, then we can divide the total time in this time so in 1 hour are 60 minutues so:

\frac{60}{5}=12

Then he has to use:

20\cdot12=240

What are the factors of the square root of 329
Andru [333]

Answer: x=-\dfrac{3}{2}, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2-10x-26=x-5

2x^2-10x-26-x+5=0  Move all terms to one side

2x^2-11x-21=0 Simplify 2{x}^{2}-10x-26-x+5

2x^2+3x-14x-21=0 Split the second term

x(2x+3)-7(2x+3)=0  Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms.

(2x+3)(x-7)=0 Factor out the common term 2x+3

x=-\dfrac{3}{2}, 7

Solve using the quadratic formula: 2x2-9x+12=0
marta [7]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

For getting the nature of solution of the quadratic equation of the form:

ax² + bx + c = 0

We need to find Discriminant which is:

Discriminant (D) = b² - 4ac

  • If D < 0, there is no solution of equation.
  • If D = 0, there are two equal and real solution of equation
  • If D < 0, there are two real and distinct solution of equation

Here we have equation is:

2x² - 9x + 12 = 0

∴ a=2, b = -9, c = 12

⇒ D = 81 - 4 × 2 × 12 = -16 < 0

Hence, there is no solution of given equation.
