If a seed is planted, it has a 75% chance of growing into a healthy plant.

Answer:

9.72405%

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial Probability

(N choose k) p^k (1-p)^(n-k)

N=7  seeds planted

p= 100% - 70% = 30% = 0.3 <--- we are interested in the plant NOT growing

(1-p) = 70% = 0.7  <--- 70% chance the plant will survive and grow

k=4  <--- we want four of them to fail

The probability is:

 (7 choose 4) * (0.3)^4  (0.7)^3 =

 7!/(4!3!) (0.3)^4 (0.7)^3  =

 (7*6*5/3*2) (0.3)^4 (0.7)^3 =

 7*5 (0.3)^4 (0.7)^3 =

 35 * 0.0081 * 0.343 = 0.0972405 = 9.72405%

ANSWER FOR BRAINLIEST!!!

If you know that -2 is a zero of f(x) = x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12, explain how to solve the equation.

First you have to figure out what could make f(x) = 0 to get rid of the cube. I'm going to test the array of data, x = -2, x = -3, and x = -4 because this type of equation probably has more negative values given that if you plug in some values the cubed-values and squared-values will surpass the "-12". Plug this into a calculator.
x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12
f(-2) = -8 + 28 - 8 - 12 = 0

So you know that when x = -2, f(x) = 0. Divide "(x + 2)" from the equation and you will get... x^2 + 5x - 6. Now this is a simple polynomial one that you can figure to be (x + 6) (x - 1) just by looking at it because -6 multiplied by 1 is negative 6 and you see 5 and know that 6 - 1 = 5.

The solution is (x + 6) (x - 1) (x + 2) meaning that when x = -6, 1, or -2, f(x) is 0.

Find the constant rate of change for each linear function and interpret its meaning
Marina CMI [18]

the slope goes by several names

• average rate of change

• rate of change

• deltaY over deltaX

• Δy over Δx

• rise over run

• gradient

• constant of proportionality

however, is the same cat wearing different costumes.

and to get it, we simply need two points off of the straight line, hmm let's use the ones in the picture below.

(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{6}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{6}-\underset{x_1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{2}{4}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}

X+7y=24 and x-9y=-24 doing elimination
nirvana33 [79]
The easy thing to do is eliminate x by subtraction 
 
   x + 7y = 24
- x - 9y = -24
-------------------
      16y = 48

now solve for y and then substitute the value into either original equation to find x
