Please help. A spinner had 7 identical sections. Two sections are blue, 1 us red, and 4 of the sections are green. Suppose the p

Note that 7 represents each of the different 7 regions in the spinner. 

1 would represent the red region, as there is one red region.

4 would represent the 4 green regions. Thus, 2 represents the 2 blue regions.



Note that as the spinner spins, no matter which region is colored with which color, the probability of hitting a blue region is \displaystyle{  \frac{2}{7}, as out of 7 regions we can hit, 2 are blue.

(Naturally enough, the greater the number of regions of a certain color, the greater the probability of hitting a region of that color.)


7 is the number of the elements in the sample space.

2 is the number of the elements in the event: "hitting blue".

This probability, as mentioned earlier, is matched by the outcome "hitting blue."

lora16 [44]

Answer:

x = 0 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(x) = g(x) then – x2 + 4x + 1 = x + 1

add the like terms

-x^2 +3x = 0

-x (x-3) = 0 then x is either 0 or 3
