Answer:

x = -2.32, 10.32 to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x - 24 = 0

x = [ - (-8) +/- sqrt (((-8)^2 - 4*1*(-24)] / 2

= 4 +/- sqrt160/2

= 4 +/- 6.3245

=  -2.32, 10.32.

andrey2020 [161]

Here we have a problem of probability, we will find that the probability of landing in heads is M/N = 1/3, then we have:

M + N = 1 + 3 = 4.

Let's see how we got that:

Let's define:

p = probability of landing on tails

q = probability of landing on heads.

The probability of getting at least one tails in 3 tosses is 26/27

This means that the probability of not getting tails in the 3 tosses is:

P = 1 - 26/27 = 1/27

And the case where you do not get any tails in the 3 tosses, means that in all the 3 tosses you got heads.

The probability of getting 3 heads in a row is:

P = q^3 = 1/27

Solving for q, we get:

q = ∛(1/27) = 1/3

Now we want to express q = M/N = 1/3

then we have:

M = 1

N = 3

Now we want to compute M + N = 1 + 3 = 4
