Is a x a +15a + 75 a perfect square trinomial

1 answer:

5 0

Factoring. A trinomial is a perfect square trinomial if it can be factored into a binomial multiplied to itself. (This is the part where you are moving the other way). In a perfect square trinomial, two of your terms will be perfect squares.

Three couples and two single individuals have been invited to an investment seminar and have agreed to attend. Suppose the proba

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

(a) Probability mass function

P(X=0) = 0.0602

P(X=1) = 0.0908

P(X=2) = 0.1704

P(X=3) = 0.2055

P(X=4) = 0.1285

P(X=5) = 0.1550

P(X=6) = 0.1427

P(X=7) = 0.0390

P(X=8) = 0.0147

NOTE: the sum of the probabilities gives 1.0068 for rounding errors. It can be divided by 1.0068 to get the adjusted values.

(b) Cumulative distribution function of X

F(X=0) = 0.0602

F(X=1) = 0.1510

F(X=2) = 0.3214

F(X=3) = 0.5269

F(X=4) = 0.6554

F(X=5) = 0.8104

F(X=6) = 0.9531

F(X=7) = 0.9921

F(X=8) = 1.0068

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of people who arrive late to the seminar, we can assess that X can take values from 0 (everybody on time) to 8 (everybody late).

For X=0

This happens when every couple and the singles are on time (ot).

$P(X=0)=P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=0)=(1-0.43)^{5}=0.57^5= 0.0602$

For X=1

This happens when only one single arrives late. It can be #4 or #5. As the probabilities are the same (P(#4=late)=P(#5=late)), we can multiply by 2 the former probability:

$P(X=1) = P(\#4=late)+P(\#5=late)=2*P(\#4=late)\\\\P(X=1) = 2*P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=late)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=1) = 2*0.57*0.57*0.57*0.43*0.57\\\\P(X=1) = 2*0.57^4*0.43=2*0.0454=0.0908$

For X=2

This happens when

1) Only one of the three couples is late, and the others cooples and singles are on time.

2) When both singles are late , and the couples are on time.

$P(X=2)=3*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot))+P(\#1=ot)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=2)=3*(0.43*0.57^4)+(0.43^2*0.57^3)=0.1362+0.0342=0.1704$

For X=3

This happens when

1) Only one couple (3 posibilities) and one single are late (2 posibilities). This means there are 3*2=6 combinations of this.

$P(X=3)=6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=3)=6*(0.43^2*0.57^3)=6*0.342=0.2055$

For X=4

This happens when

1) Only two couples are late. There are 3 combinations of these.

2) Only one couple and both singles are late. Only one combination of these situation.

$P(X=4)=3*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot))+P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=ot)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=4)=3*(0.43^2*0.57^3)+(0.43^3*0.57^2)\\\\P(X=4)=3*0.0342+ 0.0258=0.1027+0.0258=0.1285$

For X=5

This happens when

1) Only two couples (3 combinations) and one single are late (2 combinations). There are 6 combinations.

$P(X=6)=6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=6)=6*(0.43^3*0.57^2)=6*0.0258=0.1550$

For X=6

This happens when

1) Only the three couples are late (1 combination)

2) Only two couples (3 combinations) and one single (2 combinations) are late

$P(X=6)=P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=ot)*P(\#5=ot)+6*(P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=ot)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot))\\\\P(X=6)=(0.43^3*0.57^2)+6*(0.43^4*0.57)\\\\P(X=6)=0.0258+6*0.0195=0.0258+0.1169=0.1427$

For X=7

This happens when

1) Only one of the singles is on time (2 combinations)

$P(X=7)=2*P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=ot)\\\\P(X=7)=2*0.43^4*0.57=0.0390$

For X=8

This happens when everybody is late

$P(X=8)=P(\#1=l)*P(\#2=l)*P(\#3=l)*P(\#4=l)*P(\#5=l)\\\\P(X=8) = 0.43^5=0.0147$

If you add $15 + $27 because that's how much it costs for each student, you get $42. Then you divide $714 by $42, you get 17 and that's how many students are in the class this month.

Nadiya determines that there are no fractions equivalent to 2/10 with a denominator greater than 10, but less than 20, that have

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Yes, Nadiya is correct. By multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2, the first fraction equivalent to 2/10 is 4/20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a fraction equivalent to 2/10, we need to multiply (or divide) the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero whole number.

As we need an equivalent fraction with a denominator greater than 10, we will need to multiply and not divide.

The first nonzero whole number we have is 1. If we multiply the numerator and denominator by 1, we get 2/10. Obviously, 2/10 is equivalent to 2/10 but the denominator is not greater than 10, so it doesn't help us.

The next whole number is 2. When we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 4/20. The denominator is not less than 20.

If we keep going, we will get 6/30, 8/40 and so on.

Therefore, Nadiya is correct.

The correct answer is the first one.
