Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the probability of him pulling out a book.
There are 11 objects in total, and there are 4 books.
So, the probability of pulling out a book is
Next, find the probability of him pulling out a DVD after.
Since a book was taken out, there are only 10 objects left. There are 5 DVDs.
So, the probability of pulling out a DVD is , or simplified to
To find the probability that this happens in order, multiply the probabilities:
x
=
So, the probability is
9514 1404 393
Answer:
13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313
Step-by-step explanation:
If one of the numbers is x, then the other is 13-x, and their product is ...
x(13 -x) = -12
x^2 -13x = 12 . . . . multiply by -1 and simplify
x^2 -13x +6.5^2 = 12 +6.5^2 . . . . complete the square
(x -6.5)^2 = 54.25
x -6.5 = √54.25
x = 6.5 +√54.25 ≈ 13.8654599313
and the other number is ...
13 -x = 13 -13.8654599313 = -0.8654599313
The two numbers are 13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313.
