Answer:
18 students are likely to be wearing red
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we know a student either wears red , or blue, with the probability of a student wearing red is 3 times more probable than wearing white.
So, let’s say out of the 24 students, x of them are wearing white. What this practically mean is that 3 * x = 3x of the students would be expected to be wearing red.
Now, adding the number of people wearing red and white together in terms of x, we have x + 3x = 4x
We equate this to 24; 4x = 24 and x = 24/4; x = 6
The number wearing red probably is 3 * x = 3 * 6 = 18 people
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I realize that the time is passed.... but FYI
BD is <u><em>Geometric Mean</em></u>
That's mean BD² = 6 × 5 = 30 ⇒ BD = √30
x² = BD² + 6² = 30 + 36 = 66 ⇒ x = √66
y = √55
If you would like to solve the equation 2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16, you can calculate this using the following steps:
<span>2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16
</span><span>2 * x^2 - x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
</span>x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
(x + 4) * (x + 4) = 0
x = - 4
The correct result would be x = - 4.
