If (x-7) is a factor of 2x^2-11x+k, what is the value of k

kondaur [170]

If x-7 =0

Then x =7

Substitute x=7 into f(x):

2(7)^2 - 11(7) + k

= (98-77)+k

= 21+k

Therefore k=-21 because 21+(-21)=0

A commuter crosses one of three bridges, A, B, or C, to go home from work. The commuter crosses bridge A with probability 1/3, c

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

0.1333 = 13.33% probability that bridge B was used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Arrives home by 6 pm

Event B: Bridge B used.

Probability of arriving home by 6 pm:

75% of 1/3(Bridge A)

60% of 1/6(Bridge B)

80% of 1/2(Bridge C)

So

$P(A) = 0.75*\frac{1}{3} + 0.6*\frac{1}{6} + 0.8*\frac{1}{2} = 0.75$

Probability of arriving home by 6 pm using Bridge B:

60% of 1/6. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.6*\frac{1}{6} = 0.1$

Find the probability that bridge B was used.

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1}{0.75} = 0.1333$

0.1333 = 13.33% probability that bridge B was used.

1 and 3/4 as an improper fraction

expeople1 [14]

7/4 you do this because, for example you can think of it like pizza and pizza slices. You have 1 pizza and 3/4 of a pizza, let’s say each slice is 1/4 of a pizza. How many slices do you have altogether? Seven. You can also think of 1 as 4/4, so the just add 3/4 + 4/4 (which is technically just 3+4) = 7/4
