Answer:

± 8.7178 or ± the square root of 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve  :    k2-76 = 0

Add  76  to both sides of the equation :

                     k2 = 76

When two things are equal, their square roots are equal. Taking the square root of the two sides of the equation we get:  

                     k  =  ± √ 76  

Can  √ 76 be simplified ?

Yes!   The prime factorization of  76   is

  2•2•19

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be  2  instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 76   =  √ 2•2•19   =

               ±  2 • √ 19

The equation has two real solutions  

These solutions are  k = 2 • ± √19 = ± 8.7178

nignag [31]
To simplify the expression we proceed as follows:
<span>d^2+4d+3/d^2-7d-8 + d^2-2d-8/d^2+5d+6
putting like terms together we have:
(d^2+d^2)+(4d-7d-2d+5d)+(3/d^2-8/d^2)+(-8+6)
=2d^2+0d-5/d^2-2

A fair coin is tossed repeatedly. What is the probability that three heads in a row will occur before a tail followed by two hea
Masteriza [31]

The probability that you can get N heads in a row would be:

Let <span>p</span> be the probability of flipping a heads. Let <span>x</span> be number of flips needed to achieve <span>h </span>consecutive heads. The solution is <span><span>E(x) = (<span><span>1−<span>p^h) / (</span></span><span><span>p^h</span>(1−p))</span></span></span></span>

This expression may be derived as follows. The probability of being successful immediately is <span><span>p^r.</span></span> However, one might get a tails immediately. In that case, the number of flips needed is <span><span>1+E(x) </span></span>(one flip has been used and we are back to the original position). We might get a heads and then a tails. In this case two flips have been used and we are back to the original position. Continue this up to <span><span>h−1</span></span> heads followed by a tails in which case <span>h</span> flips have been used and we are back to the original position.
