Answer: 8 inches

Solving Steps:

x(x + 6) = 112
x^2 + 6x = 112
x^2 + 6x - 112 = 0
(x + 14)(x - 8) = 0
x + 14 = 0
x = -14
^^^ reject because distance can’t be negative
x - 8 = 0
x = 8

Check:

x(x + 6) = 112
8(8 + 6) = 112
64 + 48 = 112
112 = 112

A bag has six balls labeled a,b,c,d.e and f . One ball will be randomly picked, and its letter will be recorded as the outcome.
Dvinal [7]
<h3>Sample space = {a,b,c,d,e,f}</h3><h3>Event space = {a,c}</h3>

We simply list all of the letters mentioned as they are the possible outcomes. We can only pick one item from the sample space. The event space is the set of outcomes where we want to happen (picking either an 'a' or 'c').
