Answer:

y=(7±√89)/-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=(-b±√b^2 -4ac)/2a

Rewrite given equation in quadratic form so it is -2y-7y+5=0

Then, in formula, sub -2 for a, -7 for b, and 5 for c

y=-(-7)±√(-7)^2 -4(-2)(5)/2(-2)

When you multiply that out you get

7±√49-(-40)/-4

The next step is the answer given above

If you need the answer not in sq rt form, it is y=-4.1085 and y=0.0608

An unprepared student makes random guesses for the ten true-false questions on a quiz. Find the probability that there is at le

hoa [83]

Answer:

0.999

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 1 correct means, 1 correct, 2 correct, 3 correct ... until 10 correct. That would be a long process to calculate.

Instead we use the complement rule to calculate.

$P(x\geq1)=1-P(x$

So we need to find P(x<1). So this is getting 0 answers correct, or 10 incorrect.

In true false question, probablity of correct is 1/2 and incorrect is 1/2, hence,

Probability of 10 incorrect is (1/2)^10

Thus,

$P(x\geq1)=1-(\frac{1}{2})^{10}=0.999$

So the answer is 0.999 (rounded to nearest thousandth)
