//I'll use the discriminant rule for this.
b^2 - 4ac = 0 when one real root
Therefore, k^2 - 4*3*4= 0
k^2 = 48
k= +-4√3
In total there are 5 kids so
5÷3.5=1.4
(rounded)
Answer:
\frac{1}{230230}
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in a certain lottery, an urn contains balls numbered 1 to 26
From this urn, 6 balls are chosen randomly, without replacement.
Bet amount 1 dollar and he selects a set of six numbers.
If these match with those chosen from the urn he wins (order does not matter)
Total ways of choosing 6 out of 26 =
The way he selects = 1
Hence probability of winning =
with one ticket
Y=a(x-1)^2 -17 is the equation of the parabola.
at (0,16), 16=a(0-1)^2 -17. Solve for a = 33.
Equation is then y=33(x-1)^2-17 so when y=0,
(x-1)^2 = 17/33
x-1 = + and - square root of 17/33
x = 1.7177 and 0,2823 as the intercepts
