Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
-129 = 6(7 + 7x) - 3
Distribute the 6 into the parentheses.
-129 = 42 + 42x - 3
Add like terms.
-129 = 39 +42x
Subtract 39 from both sides.
-168 = 42x
Divide 42 from both sides.
-4 = x
Answer:
6x^2 +8x
Step-by-step explanation:
(12x^3 -14x^2 -40x) / (2x-5)
Factor the numerator by factoring out the greatest common factor
2x( 6x^2 -7x-20) / (2x-5)
Factor inside the parentheses
2x (3x+4)(2x-5)/ (2x-5)
Cancel like terms
2x( 3x+4)
Distribute
6x^2 +8x
Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.
<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:


The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- n is the number of trials.
- p is the probability of a success on a single trial.
In this problem, we have that:
- There are 6 students, hence n = 6.
- There are 20 quotes, hence the probability of each being chosen is p = 1/20 = 0.05.
The probability of one quote being chosen at least two times is given by:

In which:
P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1).
Then:



Then:
P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.7351 + 0.2321 = 0.9672.

0.0328 = 3.28% probability that at least 2 of them choose the same quote.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: Congruent triangles are triangles with the same three sides and same three angles.
There many ways to determine if 2 triangles are congruent.
One of them is <u>ASA</u> or <u>Angle, Side, Angle</u> and it means that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side on the other triangle, they are congruent.
In this case, angle MRQ and angle NQR are equal. The included side of both triangles are the same QR, so it can be concluded that <em><u>triangle QNR is congruent to triangle RMQ.</u></em>
The image in the attachment shows the angles and their included side, which are colored.
