Factor the expression completely I’ve the complex numbers X^4+10x^2+25
Elza [17]

We have

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

so that with a = x² and b = 5, we have

x⁴ + 10x² + 25 = (x² + 5)²

Next, we have

a² - b² = (a - b) (a + b)

so that with a = x and b = √5 i,

x² + 5 = x² - (-5) = (x - √5 i) (x + √5 i)

So, the complete factorization over the complexes is

(x - √5 i)² (x + √5 i)²

a metal worker has a metal alloy that is 20% copper, and another metal alloy that is 60% copper. How many kilograms (kg) of each
emmainna [20.7K]

Let X = the 29% alloy and Y = the 60% alloy.

They want a total of 80kg, so you have X +Y = 80

Rewrite that to get X = 80-Y


You also want 0.20X + 0.60Y = 0.52(80)

Replace X with 80-y:

0.20(80-y) + 0.60y = 0.52(80)

Simplify:

16 - 0.20y + 0.60y = 41.6

Combine like terms:

16 +0.40y = 41.6

Subtract 16 from each side:

0.40y = 25.6

Divide both sides by 0.40

y = 25.6 / 0.40

y = 64


Now you have Y replace y with 80 in X = 80-Y

X = 80 - 64

X = 16

They need 64 Kg of the 60% alloy and 16 Kg of the 20% alloy.

To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in
lukranit [14]

Answer: \dfrac{26}{27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To avoid detection at customs, a traveler places 6 narcotic tablets in a bottle containing 9 vitamin tablets that are similar in appearance.

Proportion of success : p=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Sample size taken by customs official : n= 3

Let x be a binomial variable that represents the tablets in the bottle.

Using Binomial probability formula :-

P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics =P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)

1-^3C_0(\dfrac{2}{3})^0(1-\dfrac{2}{3})^3\\\\=1-(1)(1)(\dfrac{1}{3})^3\ [\becuase ^nC_0=1]\\\\=1-\dfrac{1}{27}=\dfrac{26}{27}

Hence, the probability that the traveler will be arrested for illegal possession of narcotics = \dfrac{26}{27}
