In a game of checkers there are 12 red pieces and 12 black game pieces.Julio is setting up the board to begin playing. what is t
Bond [772]
Since there are equal numbers of pieces, the chances of Julio getting a red on the first pull is 12/24  or 1/2 (reduced)

However on the second pull there are only 11 reds (Julio pulled one out) out of 23 remaining pieces so the chances of pulling the second red are 11/23

Now multiply those possibilities: 
 1/2  x 11/23 and you will get 11/46 which is the probability of pulling two reds in a row.  11/46 is the answer.

Prove that if one solution for a quadratic equation of the form x 2 + bx + c = 0 is rational (where b and c are rational), then
erica [24]
x^2+bx+c = (x-r)(x-s)\\
x^2+bx+c = x^2-(r+s)x+rs\\\\
b = -(r+s)\\ c = rs

Say r is rational. Suppose for a second, that s is not. Then, r+s is irrational. But this contradicts the fact that b is rational.

So, if one root is rational, then the other root is also rational
