Which are the solutions of x2 = –5x + 8?

Luda [366]3 years ago

Answer:

  x = -2.5 ± √14.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5x to prepare for "completing the square."

  x² +5x = 8

Add the square of half the x-coefficient:

  x² +5x + 2.5² = 8 + 2.5²

  (x +2.5)² = 14.25

Take the square root.

  x +2.5 = ±√14.25

Subtract 2.5.

  x = -2.5 ± √14.25 ≈ {-6.27492, 1.27592}

Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: The probability is given by the number of times the event could happen (in this case get an "e"), over the number of all the possibilities (in this case, the six letters of the word)

Therefore, probability \frac{letter_e}{all letter}=\frac{2}{6} =\frac{1}{3}
