Mathematics
1 answer:
lina2011 [118]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

General quadratic equation: y = ax² + bx + c.

When x = 0, y = -3.

=> (-3) = a(0)² + b(0) + c, c = -3.

We now have y = ax² + bx - 3.

When x = 2, y = -4.

=> (-4) = a(2)² + b(2) - 3, 4a + 2b - 3 = -4,

4a + 2b = -1.

Our 1st system of equations is 4a + 2b = -1.

When x = 4, y = -3.

=> (-3) = a(4)² + b(4) - 3, 16a + 4b - 3 = -3,

16a + 4b = 0, 4a + b = 0.

Our 2nd system of equations is 4a + b = 0.

Now we solve the system of equations:

4a + 2b = -1

- (4a + b = 0)

=> b = -1

Hence 4a + (-1) = 0, 4a = 1, a = 1/4. (B)

Answer: You have a better chance if you do not replace the red marble.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag has:

5 red marbles

8 blue marbles

4 yellow marbles

3 green marbles

A total of 5 + 8 + 4 + 3 = 20

You want to draw a red marble and then a blue marble.

The probability of drawing a red marble in your first attempt is the number of red marbles divided the total number of marbles:

P1 = 5/20  

now you want to draw a blue marble.

If you replace the red marble, you have 20 marbles again in the bag, then the probability of drawing a blue marble is:

P2 = 8/20

The joint probability is P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/20) = 0.1

If you do not replace the red marble, you have 19 total marbles in the bag, then the probability of taking a blue marble is:

P2 = 8/19

The joint probability is:

P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/19) = 0.105

The probability is slightly bigger if you do not replace the red marble.

A car is designed to last an average of 12 years with a standard deviation of 0.8 years. What is the probability that a car will
Scorpion4ik [409]
Due to the common probability formula I can solve that task. Refering to the task you gave, we have all the information we need. We solve it like that: \frac{10-12}{0.8} = -2.5; Probability(-2.5)=.0.00621; Probability = 0.621%
So the answer is the first option <span>0.621%</span>

(a+b)2 ;a=1/2 and b=2
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

\frac{25}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = \frac{1}{2} + 2 = 2 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{2}, thus

(a + b)² = (\frac{5}{2} )² = \frac{5}{2} × \frac{5}{2} = \frac{5(5)}{2(2)} = \frac{25}{4}
