Answer:
• Gayle: 14
• Crystal: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g represent the number of paperclips Gayle has. Then 42/g is the number Crystal has. The relationship between the two numbers is said to be ...
g - (42/g) = 11
Multiplying by g gives ...
g^2 -42 = 11g
g^2 -11g -42 = 0 . . . . subtract 11 g to put into standard form
To factor this, you are looking for two factors of -42 that sum to -11.
-42 = -42·1 = -21·2 = -14·3 = -7·6
You can see that -14 and 3 sum to -11, so the factoring is ...
(g -14)(g +3) = 0
g = 14 . . . . . . . . . . makes the product zero. (The g=-3 solution is extraneous.)
Gayle has 14 paperclips and Crystal has 3.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The probability that your mail is delivered before 2 pm is 0.9, so the probability that the mail is delivered at 2 pm or after 2 pm (so not before 2 pm) is 1-0.9=0.1.
Remark: 0.9=9/10=90/100=90%, and 0.1 is 10%
2. Probability of the mail being delivered before 2 pm for 2 consecutive days is
3. take a look at the picture attached, the tree diagram is another method we could use.
