Begin by following the herd . . . call the two numbers 'x' and 'y' .
You said that xy=1 , so y = 1/x
You said that x + y = 10, so x + 1/x = 10
Multiply each side by 'x': x² + 1 = 10x
Subtract 10x from each side: x² - 10x + 1 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve this, and the two solutions
that you get for 'x' are also the two numbers 'x' and 'y' .
They are
<em>9.89898</em>
and
<em>0.10102</em>
(rounded)
It means multiply by the reciprocal of the number. The reciprocal is 1 divided by the number (x).
So assuming you're number is 3, the reciprocal of 3 would be 1/3.
or
Assuming the number is 0.2, the reciprocal of the number would be 1/0.2
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
P(A or Black) = (73 + 27)/127 = 100/127 = 0.7874015748
b)
P(Red) = red/total = 39/127 = 0.30708661417
c)
P(Manufacturer B and Red) = (B and red)/total = 10/ 127 = 0.0787401575
d)
P(Manufacturer B or Red) = (B or red)/total = (54 + 29)/127 = 0.65354330708
