There are 10 juice boxes in the cooler altogether.
2 of them are grape.
The first time Jill pulls one out with her eyes closed,
the probability that it's a grape is
2 / 10 .
If that try is successful, then there are 9 boxes left in the cooler,
and one of them is grape.
If she already has one grape, and reaches in again with her eyes
closed, the probability of pulling out the second grape is
1 / 9 .
The probability of both events happening in two tries is
(2/10) x (1/9) = 2/90 = 1/45 = (2 and 2/9) percent .
Let the total number of questions in the math test be defined by the variable x.
Now, we know that Parker correctly answered 35 questions. These 35 questions make 70% of the total number of questions on his math test.
The information we have above can be expressed as an equation given below:
70% of x=35
This can be rewritten as:
Thus, to find the total number of questions we will have to isolate x.
Therefore, there were a total of 50 questions in the math test.
5578/68=82.029411764705882352941176470588
that would be rounded to 82.02 which is the answer
To find the correct function, just plug in 10 and 2 to see if the function equals zero with both numbers.
f(x)=x^2-12x+20
f(10)=100-120+20
f(10)=0 --> that's what we want, so let's check the other number
f(x)=x^2-12x+20
f(2)=4-24+20
f(2)=0 --> perfect. this function has zeros at both x=10 and x=2
The function that has zeros at both x=10 and x=2 is f(x)=x^2-12x+20.
