Answer:
x = -2.32, 10.32 to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8x - 24 = 0
x = [ - (-8) +/- sqrt (((-8)^2 - 4*1*(-24)] / 2
= 4 +/- sqrt160/2
= 4 +/- 6.3245
= -2.32, 10.32.
The length would be 6 and the width would be 4 to get 24 as the area.
Answer:
0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of students = 20
Number of students who have brown hair = 12
Number of students who have blonde hair = 4
Number of students who have red hair = 3
Number of students who have black hair = 1
To find:
Probability of randomly selecting a blonde-haired student from the classroom.
Solution:
Probability refers to chances of occurring of some event.
Probability = Number of favourable outcomes/ Total number of outcomes
Number of favourable outcomes ( Number of students who have blonde hair ) = 4
Total number of outcomes = 20
So,
Probability of randomly selecting a blonde haired student from the classroom = 
1) 6x-7y=-11
2) x=-2
3) y=-4x+1
4) y-5=3(x-1)
