Answer:

The probability of an eighth grader winning is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of students = 42

Number of students in 7th grade = 21

Number of students in 8th grade = 14

Number of students in 9th grade = 7

Probability of event = $\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

So,the probability of an eighth grader winning= $\frac{14}{42}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$

Hence The probability of an eighth grader winning is 1/3

Solve the equation by completing the square

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

s = - 1 ± $\sqrt{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

s² + 2s - 6 = 0 ( add 6 to both sides )

s² + 2s = 6

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides

s² + 2(1)s + 1 = 6 + 1

(s + 1)² = 7 ( take the square root of both sides )

s + 1 = ± $\sqrt{7}$ ( subtract 1 from both sides )

s = - 1 ± $\sqrt{7}$

Thus

s = - 1 - $\sqrt{7}$ , s = - 1 + $\sqrt{7}$
