Step-by-step explanation:
slope = 2-4/2-1 = -2
y - 2 = -2(x - 2)
y-2 = -2x +4
y = -2x + 6
only the first statement is true - it is the experimental probability. the rest is incorrect: the ratio is not the number of trials; the theoretical probability should be 0.5 (for unbiased coins); ratio never represents a number of occurences.
Answer:
1. A
2. B
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Only option A creates that graph, the other options are either backwards or are on top of each other.
2. Because the two lines are parallel, and do not intersect at all, there will be 0 solutions.
Answer:
x = 4 + sqrt(73) or x = 4 - sqrt(73)
Step-by-step explanation by completing the square:
Solve for x:
(x - 12) (x + 4) = 9
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
x^2 - 8 x - 48 = 9
Add 48 to both sides:
x^2 - 8 x = 57
Add 16 to both sides:
x^2 - 8 x + 16 = 73
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x - 4)^2 = 73
Take the square root of both sides:
x - 4 = sqrt(73) or x - 4 = -sqrt(73)
Add 4 to both sides:
x = 4 + sqrt(73) or x - 4 = -sqrt(73)
Add 4 to both sides:
Answer: x = 4 + sqrt(73) or x = 4 - sqrt(73)
