You can use it to find the area of something
To solve for x, add 3 to both sides, multiply both sides by -1, then take the square both sides.
Assuming There is ONLY ONE CORRECT ANSWER,
The probability of her guessing the answer without ruling out the choices is 1/5.
if 3 choices are ruled out, then 1 out of the remaining two is right, which gives the probability 1/2
now, 1/5 = 20% , while 1/2 = 50%.
Therefore her probability of getting the correct answer improves by 30% [ not much in a REAL test though :P ]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Find zeros first:</u>
- x² + x - 6 = x² + 3x - 2x - 6 = x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) = (x - 2)(x + 3)
- x = 2, x = -3, x = 7 (but x ≠ 7 as no division by zero)
<u>We have 4 intervals:</u>
- x ≤ - 3, three negatives, the result is negative or zero
- -3 ≤ x ≤ 2, two negatives and one positive, the result is positive or zero
- 2 ≤ x < 7, two positives and one negative, the result is negative or zero
- x > 7, three positives, the result is positive or zero
<u>The solution is:</u>
Correct choice is A
A) 2007
b) 120
c) the donations are decreasing as years increase
