Answer:
C. (3x2 - 10) (x - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 16x +20
Step 1: Sum = - 16x
Product = 60x^2
Step 2: Find 2 numbers that their sum is -16 and their product is 60. If you do that correctly, then you will get two numbers: 10 and -6
Step 3: Replace -16x with the two numbers found in step 2, then you will have; 3x^2 - 6x - 10x + 20
Step 4: Factorise the equation in step 3, like so;
(3x^2 - 6x)(- 10x + 20)
3x(x - 2) -10(x - 2)
(3x - 10)(x - 2)
To check if the answer is correct, expand the bracket: (3x - 10)(x - 2)
If the bracket is opened properly, you will get 3x^2 - 16x + 20
Answer:
0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass
Step-by-step explanation:
For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the students guesses the correct answer, or he guesses the wrong answer. The probability of guessing the correct answer for a question is independent of other questions. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.
In this problem we have that:
.
If the student makes knowledgeable guesses, what is the probability that he will pass?
He needs to guess at least 9 answers correctly. So









0.0082 = 0.82% probability that he will pass
Hi!
1/4 of 20 pencils are 5 pencils.
Since he gave away 4 pencils,
Total = 5 + 4 = 9
Mr. Simms use and give away total 9 pencils.
5/7
explanation: (5-0)/(7-0) = 5/7
