Hi there!

\large\boxed{x = -12, 3}

The roots of a function are when f(x) = 0, so:

0 = x² + 9x - 36

Find two numbers that multiply to -36 and add up to 9.

We get the numbers 12 and -3, so:

0 = (x + 12)(x - 3)

Set each equal to 0 to find the x value:

0 = x + 12

x = -12

0 = x - 3

x = 3

How do u solve to get x?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

2^(2x) - 5(2^x) = -4

(2^x)^2 - 5(2^x) = -4

Substitute 2^x = z --> x = ln(z)/ln(2)

z^2 - 5z = -4

z^2 - 5z + 4 = 0

(z - 1)(z - 4) = 0

z = 1 --> x = ln(1)/ln(2) = 0

z = 4 --> x = ln(4)/ln(2) = 2

Antoine has a carnival booth at the school fair where students randomly select a ping pong ball from a can. He wants to place 5
nevsk [136]

Answer:

(a)5n=3n+15

(b)n=7.5

Solution is not viable

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Total number of red ping pong balls=5

Total number of red ping pong balls=n

Now, probability of an event =\frac{Number of favourable events}{Total number of events}

Then, theprobability of randomly choosing a blue ping pong ball is

=\frac{n}{n+5}

Given that this probability is=\frac{3}{5}

Thus, we have that,

\frac{n}{n+5}= \frac{3}{5}\\ 5n=3(n+5)\\5n=3n+15

(b)

Solving, the above equation,

5n=3n+15\\2n=15\\n=7.5

This solution is not viable as, number of ping pong ball must be an integer and not a decimal number.
