Answer:
The actual answer is 9.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The mistake is in Step 4, as <u>4 × 2 = 8</u>, not 6
Answer:
A = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 10x + 24 = 0
To find the roots, we need to factor the equation.
What 2 numbers multiply to 24 and add to 10
6*4 = 24
6+4 = 10
(x+6) (x+4)=0
Using the zero product property
x+6 = 0 x+4 = 0
x = -6 x = -4
We want the sum when the roots are added
-6+ -4 = -10
Answer:
Don't spin the barrel.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each time you spin the barrel, the probability A of finding a bullet, having two bullets in six chambers is:

For you to get shot in the second try but not the first, the barrel spin would have to stop precisely at one specific chamber: the one right before the bullets, so that probability would be:

which means that this event is half as likely as finding a bullet every time the barrel is spun. Your chances are better if you pull the trigger for the second time without spinning the barrel.
F(0)=3. That means when the x input is 0, the y output, the y coordinate, is 3. It will be a point on the graph of whatever that curve looks like.
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you know a triangle is equal to 180. Since you know the sum of the other two angles equal the outside angle, you can make them equal to each other, like 112=6x+3x+4. Combine like terms to 112=9x+4. Subtract 4 on both sides and divide by 9 on both sides to leave x by itself. This will leave you with x=12
