Answer:
He generates a random whole number from 1 to 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each winner has 3 possibilities, gets cotton candy, gets a shirt, or gets a keychain. We can asign each of this possibiltiies a number, 1 for cotton candy, 2 for the shirt and 3 for a keychain. So, for a simulation, its enough to take one of this whole numbers for each winner.
Answer:
about 3.9 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
18 7/9 lbs - 14 7/8 lbs
convert mixed numbers to improper fractions
169/9 - 119/8
convert to common denominator
1352/72 - 1071/72
subtract numerators
281/72
about 3.9 lbs
Given:
Amount in the bank account = $1850
Monthly payment of can loan = $400.73
To find:
When would automatic payments make the value of the account zero?
Solution:
Craig stops making deposits to that account. So, amount $1850 in the bank account is used to make monthly payment of can loan.
On dividing the amount by monthly payment, we get
It means, the amount is sufficient for 4 payment but for the 5th payment the amount is not sufficient.
Therefore, the 5th automatic payments make the value of the account zero.
The quadratic formula, has a part we call the "discriminant" defined by the variables that are inside the square root, and is denotated by "delta":
<span>Δ=<span>b2</span>−4ac</span>
Whenever we solve a quadratic equation that is complete and we analyze the discriminant, we can get 3 scenarios:
<span>if→Δ>0<span>=></span>∃<span>x1</span>,<span>x2</span>/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span>
This just means: "if the discriminant is greater than zero, there will exist two x-intercepts"
And for the second scenario:
<span>if→Δ=0→∃<span>xo</span>/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span>
This means: "if the discriminant is equal to zero, there will be one and only one x-intercept"
And for the last scenario:
<span>if→Δ<0→∃x∉R/a<span>x2</span>+bx+c=0</span>
This means that :"if the discriminant is less than zero, there will be no x-intercepts"
So, if we take your excercise and analyze the the discriminant:
<span>3<span>x2</span>+7x+m=y</span>
we will find the values that satisfy y=0 :
<span>3<span>x2</span>+7x+m=0</span>
And we'll analyze the discriminant:
<span>Δ=<span>72</span>−4(3)(m)</span>
And we are only interested in the values that make the discriminant equal zero:
<span><span>72</span>−4(3)(m)=0</span>
All you have to do is solve for "m".
