Answer:

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

Let's say r is the number of male puppies.

n = 5, r = 2, p = 0.5, and q = 0.5.

P = ₅C₂ (0.5)² (0.5)³

P = 5/16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the quadratic equation, we have

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

Dividing the equation by a, we get

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x+\frac{c}{a}=0$

Put $\frac{c}{a}$ on the other side,

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x=\frac{-c}{a}$

Add $(\frac{b}{2a})^2$ on both the sides,

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x+(\frac{b}{2a})^2=\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2$

completing the square, we have

$(x+\frac{b}{2a})^2=\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2$

Now, solving for x,

$x+\frac{b}{2a}={\pm}\sqrt{\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2}$

$x=\frac{-b}{2a}{\pm}\sqrt{\frac{-c}{a}+(\frac{b}{2a})^2}$

Multiply right side by $\frac{2a}{2a}$ ,

$x=\frac{-b{\pm}\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

which is the required quadratic formula.

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 angles lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is

3x + 80 + 2x = 180

5x + 80 = 180 ( subtract 80 from both sides )

5x = 100 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 20
