Answer:

B: (x - 4)² = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x^2 - 8x - 10 = 18.

Simplify the constants by adding 10 to both sides: x^2 - 8x - 10 + 10 = 18 + 10.

Then x^2 - 8x = 28.

Now identify the coefficient of x. It is -8.

Take half of this, obtaining -4.

Square this result, obtaining 16.

Add 16, and then subtract 16, to x^2 - 8x:

x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16 = 28.

Add 16 to both sides:

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 28 + 16 = 44

Rewrite x^2 - 8x + 16 as (x - 4)², so that we have:

(x - 4)² = 44. This is in the form (x - p)² = 44, and matches Answer B.

Note: Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation: (x - 4)^2 = 44

You flip a coin that is not fair, the prbability of heads on each flip is 0.7. if the coin shows heads, you draw a marble from u

Shkiper50 [21]

Solution :

P(H) = 0.7 ; P(T) = 0.3

If heads, then Urn H, 1 blue and 4 red marbles.

If tails, then Urn T , 3 blue and 1 red marbles.

a).

P ( choosing a Red marble )

= P (H) x P( Red from Urn H) + P (T) x P( Red from Urn T)

$=0.7 \times \frac{4}{5} + 0.3 \times \frac{1}{4}$

= 0.56 + 0.075

= 0.635

b). If P (B, if coin showed heads)

If heads, then marble is picked from Urn H.

Therefore,

P (Blue) $=\frac{1}{5}$

= 0.2

c). P (Tails, if marble was red)

$=P (T/R) = \frac{P(R/T)}{P(R)} \ P(T)$

Where P (R/T) = P ( red, if coin showed tails)

$=\frac{1}{4}$

= 0.25 (As Urn T is chosen)

P (R) = P (Red) = 0.635 (from part (a) )

P (T) = P (Tails) = 0.3

∴ $P(T/R) = \frac{0.25 \times 0.3}{0.635}$

= 0.118
