If the discriminant of a quadratic equation, given by B^2-4AC is positive, it has 2 real solutions. If 0, it has 1 real solution and if negative it has 0 real solutions.
Answer:
(a) 12 hours
(b) $220
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) First we plug in $364 for C
C=76+24h
364=76+24h
Subtract 76 from both sides
24h=288
Divide both sides by 24
h=12
She spent 12 hours fixing the drain
(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h
C=76+24(6)
Multiply it out
C=76+144
Add
C=220
It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours
No, since 0 doesn't belong to the domain.
Y ~ Po (λ)
P(Y < 2) = P(Y ≤ 1) = 0.04
Plug into the pdf for Po(λ), and solve for λ
After that, use your answer to find P(Y > 5)
