Complete the work to find the dimensions of the rectangle. x(x – 3) = 10 x2 – 3x = 10 x2 – 3x – 10 = 10 – 10 (x + 2)(x – 5) = 0

What are the width and length of the rectangle?

Answer:

Length =5

Width = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length =x

Width = x -3

Area = 10

x(x-3) =10

See comment for missing part of the question

Required

Complete the expression to determine the dimension of a rectangle

We have:

x(x-3) =10

Open bracket

x^2 -3x = 10

Equate to 0

x^2 -3x - 10 =0

Expand

x^2 + 2x - 5x - 10 = 0

Factorize

x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2) = 0

Factor out x + 2

(x  - 5)(x + 2) = 0

Solve for x

x - 5 = 0 or x + 2 = 0

x = 5 or x = -2

The value of x cannot be negative

So:

x  = 5

Recall that:

Length = x

Width = x - 3

So:

Length =5

Width = 2 ---- i.e. 5 - 3

Derek and Mia place two green marbles and one yellow marble in a bag. Somebody picks a marble out of the bag without looking and
Ahat [919]

Step-by-step explanation:

With each draw, the probability of selecting a green marble is 2/3 and the probability of selecting a yellow marble is 1/3.

To pick two of the the same color, they can either pick green twice or yellow twice.  

P = (2/3)(2/3) + (1/3)(1/3)

P = 5/9

To pick two different colors, they can either pick green first then yellow, or yellow first then green.

P = (2/3)(1/3) + (1/3)(2/3)

P = 4/9

Expected value for Derek is:

D = (5/9)(-1) + (4/9)(1)

D = -1/9

The expected value for Mia is:

M = (5/9)(1) + (4/9)(-1)

M = 1/9
