Answer:
x = 5, -2
Step-by-step explanation:
basic format is ax^2 + bx + c. multiply ac and ask urself what # + what is equal to b? those two same numbers should also multiply to get you ac.
x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0
(x-5) (x+2) = 0
x - 5 = 0 and x + 2 = 0
x = 5 and x = -2
So in this case a= 1 and c = -10. -10 x 1 = -10. -5 x 2 is equal to -10 and -5 + 2 gets you -3, which is b.
I don't think I explained it very well but I hope that helps a little :)
Answer:
C. f(x) = 40(1/4)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
Check all the options:
When x = 0
A. f(x) = 1/4(40)^x
f(x) = 1/4(40)^0
f(x) = 1/4(1)
f(x) = 1/4
When x = 0
B. f(x) = 1/2(40)^x
= 1/2(40)^0
= 1/2(1)
f(x) = 1/2
When x = 0
C. f(x) = 40(1/4)^x
= 40(1/4)^0
= 40(1)
= 40
When x = 0
D. f(x) = 4(1/3)^x
= 4(1/3)^0
= 4(1)
= 4
What do you mean by that?
First quiz in social studies as in the second one it was only 90%
Answer:
The probability that 25% or more in the sample speak Spanish is 76%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sample of 75 Americans
If 25% or more in the sample speak Spanish, it can be deduced that 24% do not speak Spanish.
The proportion of those who do not speak Spanish is 18 (24% of 75)
Therefore, the proportion of those who speak Spanish is 57 (75 - 19)
This implies that 57/75 x 100 = 76% of the sample speak Spanish.
This 76% of the sample who speak Spanish is equal to the 25% or more who do speak Spanish in the sample.
Probability is the chance that an event may occur from many other events that could have occurred. It is an educated guess or estimate of something or one event happening when all the events in the set are given an equal chance.
