Answer:

It would be -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills: Conjugate, Distribution Property, and Addition/Subtraction </u>

3 + \sqrt{11\\} is your expression. The conjugate is an important concept you need to know to solve this.

Given the expression: a + \sqrt{b\\}

It's conjugate would be: a - \sqrt{b}

(Basically if there is an addition sign between the 2 terms, it would become a subtractions symbol and if there is a subtraction symbol it would become an addition symbol)

1) So the conjugate of  3+ \sqrt{11} would be 3 - \sqrt{11}

2) Now we would have to multiply them

  • (3 + \sqrt{11})(3- \sqrt{11}) is your expression.
  • If you use distribution property, you will get to: 3^{2} + 3\sqrt{11} - 3\sqrt{11} + \sqrt{11}^{2}
  • The two middle terms would cancel out (they both add up to 0), so then we have 3^{2} - \sqrt{11}^2
  • This would simplify into 9-11, which is then <u><em>-2</em></u>

Hope you understood, and have a nice day!! :)

A rectangle's area is given by the expression 6n2-n+
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Length of rectangle:    2n - (1/3)  + 9/(3n)

Width of rectangle =  3n

Rectangle area  = A = 6 n^2  - n + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle area  = A = 6 n^2  - n + 9

test what the roots are:    b^2 - 4ac  = (-1)^2 - 4*6*9 < 0  no real roots

-215 < 0  discriminant

(6 n^2  - n + 9)  / (3n) =

2n  -  (1/3)  +  9/(3n)

If the area is divided by 3n,  the quotient is  2n - (1/3) and the remainder is 9

An urn contains 2 red marbles and 3 blue marbles. 1. One person takes two marbles at random from the urn and does not replace th
Ghella [55]

Answer:

A) The best way to picture this problem is with a probability tree, with two steps.

The first branch, the person can choose red or blue, being 2 out of five (2/5) the chances of picking a red marble and 3 out of 5 of picking a blue one.

The probabilities of the second pick depends on the first pick, because it only can choose of what it is left in the urn.

If the first pick was red marble, the probabilities of picking a red marble are 1 out of 4 (what is left of red marble out of the total marble left int the urn) and 3 out of 4 for the blue marble.

If the first pick was the blue marble, there is 2/4 of chances of picking red and 2/4 of picking blue.

B) So a person can have a red marble and a blue marble in two ways:

1) Picking the red first and the blue last

2) Picking the blue first and the red last

C) P(R&B) = 3/5 = 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

C) P(R&B) = P(RB) + P(BR) = (2/5)*(3/4) + (3/5)*(2/4) = 3/10 + 3/10 = 3/5
