Answer:

x=2, x=-2, and x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Function: f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x+1)²

We can solve each one of the zeros by making the expressions (the ones in the parentheseis) equal zero.

So we have three equations:

1.(x-2)=0

2.(x+2)=0

3.(x+1)²=0

Solve.

1.x-2=0

x=2

2. x+2=0

x=-2

3. (x+1)²=(x+1)(x+1)=0

(x+1)=0

x=-1

(x+1)=0

x=-1

Since those two were the same we can just say x=-1 once.

Here are the three zeros:

x=2, x=-2, and x=-1

hope this helps!

The experimental probability that Amir will make a basket is 0.4. The experimental probability that Juju will make a basket is 0

madreJ [45]

Answer:

30 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability Pa that Amir will make a basket is 0.4;

Pa = 0.4

the experimental probability Pj that juju with make the same basket is 0.6;

Pj = 0.6

Total number of shoot Nt = 150

Number of basket Amir will make is;

Na = Pa × Nt

Na = 0.4 × 150

Na = 60 basket

Number of basket juju will make is;

Nj = Pj × Nt

Nj = 0.6 × 150

Nj = 90 basket

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ( a^2 + b^2 = (a + b)^2 - 2ab

= 29 - 2(6)

= 29-12

= 17.

2). (x - y)^2 = x^2 + y^2 - 2xy

so 20 = 18 - 2xy

2xy = 18-20 = -2

xy = -1.

3). 1/x + x = 7

(1/ x + x)^2 = 1/x^2 + x^2 +x/x + x/x

= 1/x^2 + x^2 + 2

But(1/x + x)^2 = 7^2 = 49

so 1/x^2 + x^2 + 2 = 49

so 1/x^2 + x^2 = 49 - 2 = 47.

In a experiment, the probability that event A occurs is 5/9, the probability that event B occurs is 5/7, and the probability tha

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

52.5% probability that A occurs given B occurs

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have two events, A and B, the conditional probability formula is:

$P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

In which

P(A|B) is the probability of A happening given that B happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(B) is the probability of B happening.

In this problem, we have that:

$P(A \cap B) = \frac{3}{8}, P(B) = \frac{5}{7}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{\frac{3}{8}}{\frac{5}{7}} = 0.525$

52.5% probability that A occurs given B occurs
