Draw a simple branch diagram to work the probabilities out.
You find that the chance of a poisonous mushroom is 0.08 and the chance of a red poisonous is 0.04.
So the probability that a poisonous mushroom is red is 1/2 or 0.5.
Answer:
(3x - 4)(8x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 24 × 12 and sum = - 41
The required factors are - 32 and - 9
Use these factors to split the x- term
24x² - 32x - 9x + 12 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 8x(3x - 4) - 3(3x - 4) ← factor out (3x - 4) from each term
= (3x - 4)(8x - 3) ← in factored form
It could be D or C
The system has two solutions
x = .8 y = .6
OR if you think about it , (x=.8 y=.6) could be considered THE solution.
I would go with choice C
find prime factors to get the inbetween numbers for product, and choose the one that has a difference of 20, and it should be 5 and 25, both requirements are met.
