  • Left to Right<u> </u>

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = 0
  • Quadratic Formula: \displaystyle x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

x² - 5x + 6

↓

<em>a</em> = 1, <em>b</em> = -5, <em>c</em> = 6

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Quadratic Formula]:                                                   \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(6)}}{2(1)}
  2. [√Radical] Evaluate exponents:                                                                       \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-4(1)(6)}}{2(1)}
  3. [√Radical] Multiply:                                                                                           \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-24}}{2(1)}
  4. [√Radical] Subtract:                                                                                          \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{1}}{2(1)}
  5. [√Radical] Evaluate:                                                                                         \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm 1}{2(1)}
  6. Multiply:                                                                                                             \displaystyle x = \frac{5 \pm 1}{2}
  7. Add/Subtract:                                                                                                    \displaystyle x = \frac{4}{2}, \ \frac{6}{2}
  8. Divide:                                                                                                               \displaystyle x = 2, \ 3

Probability, pleaseeeeeeeee help!
balu736 [363]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't really need to do a permutation here. We know that there are 4 options for digits and three places so therefore we have 4 choices for the first digit, 3 for the second and 2 for the last so the answer is 4 * 3 * 2 = 24.
