Answer:
m = - 8 ± 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
m² + 16m - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )
m² + 16m = 8
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the m- term )² to both sides
m² + 2(8)m + 64 = 8 + 64
(m + 8)² = 72 ( take the square root of both sides )
m + 8 = ± 
= ± 
= ± 6
Subtract 8 from both sides
m = - 8 ± 6
Answer:
See explaination
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the number of desired outcomes over the total outcomes.
1) You want to find Oranges, so that is your desired outcome:
There are 4 oranges in the bowl.
Now sum up all the fruits to get the total:
9+4+7+3+6 = 29
Therefore you have 4/29
2) Same idea, count the peaches and put it over total:
3/29
3) This time, you still want to use the same idea, but its just your desired outcomes that have increased. So instead of just having one fruit, now you want to add the total of 2 fruits as your desired outcome.
(9+4)/29
= 13/29
4) To find the probability of a fruit other than a plum, you can use complementary counting. Since the maximum probability is one, we can find what we dont want, and the outcome of that subtracted from one must be the results that we want.
So a plum is 6/29
1-6/29 = 23/29
5) Same idea as what is used in problems 3 and 4, just a combination of the 2.
(4+3)/29
1-7/29
= 22/29
Answer:
2x+40 is what it simplifies down to
Step-by-step explanation:
The best thing to do is either to find a common denominator or convert them to decimals.
I will find a common denominator.
A common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15.
You multiply the first fraction by 5
2*5= 10
This then becomes 10/15
You then multiply the second by 3.
4*3= 12
Therefore, this becomes 12/15
As the second of these fractions is larger, this means that 4/5 is larger.
The alternative method is to put them into decimals, in which case 2/3= 0.66 and 4/5= 0.8
Hope this helps :)
