umber of possible outcomes = 6^4 = 1296

Probability of favorable outcomes = 126/1296=7/72

Number of such outcomes, in which each number is no less than the preceding number, will be equal to number of ways of selecting 4 numbers from 6, with replacement; without considering order!


Why?


Lets choose any such set of size 4, say {2, 1, 1, 3}. we can sort it to get a sequence {1,1,2,3} which is one of our desired outcomes. So each such sorted sequence corresponds to one selection of size 4, with replacement and without considering order.


Number of such selections will be equal to number of solutions of following equation:


x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 + x6 = 4


where:


x1: number of 1 in the selections


x2: number of 2s in the selection


.


.


x6: number of 6s in the selection


Number unique solutions of such equation = 9 choose 5 = 126


(For more details on this see : Unordered sampling with replacement )


Number of possible outcomes = 6^4 = 1296


Probability of favorable outcomes = 126/1296=7/72

Could someone do all the problems and/or check my work?
MArishka [77]
11. You’ve done it correctly

12. Let x^2=y
y^2+13y+40=0
(y+8)(y+5)=0
y=8, 5
Since y=x^2
x^2=8 x^2=5
x=+/-√5 x= +/-2√2

13. x^4-x^2-x^2-8=0
x^4-2x^2-8=0
let x^2=y
Y^2-2y-8=0
(y-4)(y+2)=0
y=4, -2
Since y=x^2
X^2=4 X^2=-2
X= +/- 2 This wouldn’t be a real solution

14. It’s pretty much the same process, just substitute y in for x^2. If you’re confused feel free to ask and I can do it, or you can put it through Photomath

15. You’re on the right track so I’m just going to continue from where you left off
x^2(4x+5)-4(x+5)=0
(x^2-4)(4x+5)=0
x= +/- 2 4x=5
x=5/4 or 1 1/4

Hope this helped :)

C. Solve 1/2 x - (x+3)<1/3(x-1)​
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step by step!

3/8x + 15/2 = 18

Step 1: Subtract 15/2 from both sides.

3/8x + 15/2 - 15/2 = 18 - 15/2

3/8x = 21/2

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 8/3

(8/3) * (3/8x) = (8/3) * (21/2)

Step 3. Calculate

x = 28
