Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
My favorite way to go at this is to look at a graph. It shows the vertex at (-2, -11). Since the leading coefficient is 2, this means the roots are ...

where the 2 in the denominator of the radical is the leading coefficient.

You can also use other clues:
- the axis of symmetry is -b/(2a) = -8/(2(2)) = -2, so answer choices C and D don't work
- the single change in sign in the coefficients (+ + -) tells you there is one positive real root, so answer choice B doesn't work.
The first answer choice is the only one with values symmetrical about -2 and one of them positive.

You may be expected to use the quadratic formula:

5 (5/8) * 1 (5/9) = 45/8 * 14/9 = 630/72 = 8 (54/72) = 8 (3/4) miles
When looking at probabilities, two ideas are always true.
1) Any probability is more than 0.
2) The sum of all the probabilites is 1.
Idea #2 works here. (For example, think of how a die has six things and the probability of each is 1/6. So 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.) Let G = the probability of grape, C = probability of cherry and O = the probability of orange. From Idea #2, G + C + O = 1. Since we know G and C, then
3/10 + 1/5 + O = 1.
3/10 + 2/10 + O = 1
5/10 + O = 1
O = 5/10
Thus, the probability of an orange jelly bean is 5/10 = 1/2.
Answer:
$122.89
Step-by-step explanation:
The two number you have in this equation are 108.75 and 13% (or .13)
first you want to multiply 108.75 to .13
108.75 * .13 = 14.1375
Now, you add 14.1375 to 180.75 and round to the nearest hundredth
180.75+ 14.1375=122.8875
$122.89
