Find the two square roots of 144.

Mathematics
2 answers:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago

Answer:

12 and -12

Step-by-step explanation:

144 is a perfect square which means that a number multiplies to it with the same number. In this instance both 12 and -12 equal 144.

12 x 12 = 144

-12 x -12 = 144 (two negatives equal a positive)

Answer:

The square root function

sqrt(144) or √144 produces a single positive value, 12.  

However if you have an equation

x² = 144, then you have two possible values for x, 12 and -12.  

Two ways to look at it.  

x² - 144 = 0

Difference of two squares

(x+12)(x-12) = 0

x = -12, 12

x² = 144

x = ±√144

x = ±12

x = -12, 12

Answer:

F(-2)=20

Step-by-step explanation:

given F(x)=-2x^3+4

F(-2)={(-2)\times(-2)^3}+3

put -2 in place of x

F(-2)=(-2)\times(-8)+4

      =16+4=20

A certain bowler can bowl a strike 85 % of the time. What is the probability that she ​a) goes three consecutive frames without
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a) 0.34% probability that she goes three consecutive frames without a​ strike.

b) 1.91% probability that she her first strike in the third ​frame

c) 99.66% probability that she has at least one strike in the first three ​frames.

d) 14.22% probability that she bowls a perfect game.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each frame, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is a strike, or there is not. The probability of a strike happening in a frame is independent of other frames. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

A certain bowler can bowl a strike 85 % of the time.

This means that p = 0.85

a) goes three consecutive frames without a​ strike?

This is P(X = 0) when n = 3. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.85)^{0}.(0.15)^{3} = 0.0034

0.34% probability that she goes three consecutive frames without a​ strike.

​b) makes her first strike in the third ​frame?

No strike during the first two(with a 15% probability)

Strike during the third(85% probability). So

P = 0.15*0.15*0.85 = 0.0191

1.91% probability that she her first strike in the third ​frame

c) has at least one strike in the first three ​frames? ​

Either there are no strikes, or there is at least one strike. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 100%.

From a), 0.34% probability that she goes three consecutive frames without a​ strike.

100 - 0.34 = 99.66

99.66% probability that she has at least one strike in the first three ​frames.

d) bowls a perfect game​ (12 consecutive​ strikes)?

This is P(X = 12) when n = 12. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 12) = C_{12,12}.(0.85)^{12}.(0.15)^{0} = 0.1422

14.22% probability that she bowls a perfect game.

Please help, I really don't get this​
kupik [55]

Answer:

-8, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the equations, you get -7x + 4x + 4y - 4y = 24. Canceling out the 4y and the -4y, and adding 4x to -7x, you get -3x = 24. Divide both sides by -3 and you get x = -8. Next, pick an equation and substitute x for -8. I am going to use the first equation. (-7)-8 + 4y = 24 is equal to 56 + 4y = 24. Subtract 56 from both sides to get 4y is equal to -32, and if you divide both sides by 4, you get y = -8.
