Answer:

The expression for two times the difference of 4 and a number is

$8(4-d)$

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find:

Write an expression for Eight times the difference of 4 and a number.

Solution:

Let the Unknown number be 'd'

Difference of 4 and d = ( 4 - d )

So One Time Difference of 4 and d = 1× ( 4 - d )

∴ Two Times Difference of 4 and d = 2× ( 4 - d )

∴ Eight Times Difference of 4 and d = 8× ( 4 - d )

The expression for Eight times the difference of 4 and d. will be

$8(4-d)$

The expression for Eight times the difference of 4 and a number is

$8(4-d)$

Write x2 - 2x + 5 = 0 in vertex form. (Be sure to write your response in the form a(x-h)^2+k=0 with no spaces!)

Drupady [299]

To write the given quadratic equation to its vertex form, we first form a perfect square.

x² - 2x + 5 = 0
Transpose the constant to other side of the equation,
x² - 2x = -5
Complete the square in the left side of the equation,
x² - 2x + (-2/1(2))² = -5 + (-2/1(2))²
Performed the operation,
x² - 2x + 1 = -5 + 1
Factor the left side of the equation,
(x - 1)² = -4

Thus, the vertex form of the equation is,
 (x-1)² + 4 = 0

Suppose an airport metal detector catches a person with metal 99% of the time. That is, it misses detecting a person with metal

frozen [14]

Answer:

The probability of missing the first metal-carrying person is P(x≤50)=0.395

Step-by-step explanation:

We define as success to: missing metal carrying detection.

p=0.01

P(x)= $\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} p^x(1-p)^{n-x}$
