Answer:x=5

Step-by-step explanation: x^2−2x−15=0

(x−5)=0                                                                                                                        x−5=0                                                                                                                           x=5

Answer:

D. The mathematical expectation of Option A is 1. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 1.5. Option B offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The result of a product is odd only when the two numbers are odds.

There are 6*6 = 36 possible outcomes when two dice are rolled. Only 9 of them are a combination of two odd numbers: {1, 1} {1, 3} {1, 5} {3, 1} {3, 3} {3, 5} {5, 1} {5, 3} {5, 5}. Then 36 - 9 = 27 outcomes are even.

P(even) = 27/36 = 0.75

Option A) Mathematical expectation: 0.75*4 + 0.25*(-8) = 1

Option B) Mathematical expectation: 0.75*5 + 0.25*(-9) = 1.5

Ilya [14]
You need to use the angle sum of  a triangle in triangle CAD to express y in term of x
for triangla CAD , y = (180 -x) /2
180 = 3x + [ (180-x)/2]

x = 36

LiRa [457]
The answer would be A.
if he lost 8 seconds off of 3 pit stops that means he lost 24 seconds. if he can’t 10 seconds for the 2 he made, he gained 20. so therefore, he is only 4 seconds behind the leader. I hope this helps :)

Devin borrowed $1,058 at 13 percent for nine months. What will he pay in interest?
Viktor [21]

Devin borrowed $1,058 at 13 percent for nine months.

We have to calculate the interest paid.

Interest = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}

Substituting the values of

Principal = $1058

Rate = 13%

Time = 9 months = \frac{9}{12} year

Interest = \frac{1058 \times 13 \times 9}{12 \times 100}

Interest = 103.155

= 103.16

So, Devin will pay 103.16 as the interest.

Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
