Find the integer a such that a.a ≡ 43 (mod 23) and −22 ≤ a ≤ 0.

1 answer:

8 0

Given that a is an integer from -22 to 0 such that a is equivalent to 43 (mod 23).

Such a can be obtained as follows:

a = 43 (mod 23) - 23 = 20 - 23 = -3.

Therefore, a = -3.

In the derivation of the quadratic formula by completing the square, the equation (x+b over 2a)^2=-4ac+b^2 over 4a^2 is created

vredina [299]

Answer:

The result of applying the square root property of equality to this equation is $x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

$\left(x+\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)^2=\dfrac{-4ac+b^2}{4a^2}$

As the above equation is formed by perfect square trinomial so simply applying the square root property as shown:

$\sqrt{(x+\dfrac{b}{2a})^2}=\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{-4ac+b^2}}{\sqrt{4a^2}}\\x+\dfrac{b}{2a}=\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Isolate the variable x.

$x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Hence, the result of applying the square root property of equality to this equation is $x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ .

Answer: Our required probability is 0.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

18-20 Not 18-20 Total

Male 0.23 0.35 0.58

Female 0.16 0.26 0.42

Total 0.39 0.61 1

P(female or between 18-20) = P(female) + P(18-20) - P(Female and 18-20)

P(female or between 18-20) = 0.42+0.39-0.16

P(female or between 18-20) = 0.65

Hence, our required probability is 0.65.

Here are seven tiles: 1,1,3,3,3,5,5. Tom takes a tile at random. He does not replace the tile. Tom then takes a second tile. A)

zzz [600]

Answer:

a) 2/42

b)16/42

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2/7 x 1/6 = 2/42

b) (1,2) (1,3) (2,3)

P(1,2) = 2/7 x 3/6 = 6/42

P(1,3) = 2/7 x 2/6 = 4/42

P(2,3) = 3/7 x 2/6 = 6/42

Add all = 6/42 + 4/42 + 6/42 = 16/42
