Answer:
(b)0.56
(c)0.38
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)The tree diagram is attached.
P(Ben Fails)=1-0.8=0.2
P(Tom Fails)=1-0.7=0.3
(b)Probability that both will pass their driving test.
P(both will pass)=0.8 X 0.7 =0.56
(c)Probability that only one of them will pass their driving test.
P(Tom Bass, Ben Fails OR Ben Pass, Tom Fails)
=(0.7 X 0.2)+(0.8 X 0.3)
=0.14+0.24
=0.38
When roots of polynomials occur in radical form, they occur as two conjugates.
That is,
The conjugate of (a + √b) is (a - √b) and vice versa.
To show that the given conjugates come from a polynomial, we should create the polynomial from the given factors.
The first factor is x - (a + √b).
The second factor is x - (a - √b).
The polynomial is
f(x) = [x - (a + √b)]*[x - (a - √b)]
= x² - x(a - √b) - x(a + √b) + (a + √b)(a - √b)
= x² - 2ax + x√b - x√b + a² - b
= x² - 2ax + a² - b
This is a quadratic polynomial, as expected.
If you solve the quadratic equation x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0 with the quadratic formula, it should yield the pair of conjugate radical roots.
x = (1/2) [ 2a +/- √(4a² - 4(a² - b)]
= a +/- (1/2)*√(4b)
= a +/- √b
x = a + √b, or x = a - √b, as expected.
