What are the solutions to the equation (x-1)(x+2)=-2?

Answers

Answer 1

Method used:-

Completing the square method.

Steps :-

[tex]( x - 1 ) ( x + 2 ) = - 2\\x^{2}+x-2=-2 \\x^{2}+x=-2+2 \\x^{2}+x=0[/tex]

Now, make the left hand side of the equation by adding the square of ½ to both sides of the equation.

[tex]x^{2}+x+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2} \\x^{2}+x+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4} \\\left(x+\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{1}{4} \\\sqrt{\left(x+\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \\[/tex]

Simplify the equation. You'll get a +ve & -ve value.

[tex]x+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2} \\x+\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Simplify it further.

[tex]\boxed{\sf\:x=0}\\ \boxed{\sf\:x=-1 }[/tex]

The solutions are :-

x = 0 & x = -1

Answer:

a = 6

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

They both need to have the same slope.

The slope in the first equation is 6

That means that the second equation must have a = 6

They both need to have the same y intercept

The second equation has a y intercept of 3/4

Therefore b in the first equation, must be 3/4

The same amount of trash is dumped into a landfill every day. The function below shows the total number of tons of trash n in the landfill after x days: n = 2000x 1000 What does the number 1,000 represent? Amount of trash originally in the landfill Amount of trash added to the landfill every day Rate at which the total trash increases every day Rate at which the new trash increases every day.

Answers

The number 1000 represents the amount of trash originally in the landfill.

Given that,

The same amount of trash is dumped into a landfill every day.

The function below shows the total number of tons of trash n in the landfill after x days:

n = 2000x + 1000

We have to determine,

What does the number 1,000 represent?

According to the equation,

The function is,

n = 2000x + 1000

The initial value of a function is defined as the started value of the function independent of any variables present in the function.

Here, n represent the amount of trash and x represents the number of days.

Therefore,

n = 2000x + 1000

In the equation 1000 is the number of days elapsed and 2000 represents the quantity of trash dumped each day.

Hence, The number 1000 represents the amount of trash originally in the landfill.

For more information about Equation refer to the link given below.

The expressions 3(m-2)+2(m-2) and 50m-2 are not equivalent expressions.

Castel and Kali are selling wrapping paper for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy rolls of plain wrapping paper and rolls of holiday wrapping paper.

Kali sold 9 rolls of plain wrapping paper and 10 rolls of holiday wrapping paper for a total of $213. What is the cost each of one roll of plain wrapping paper and one roll of holiday wrapping paper?

please help, am not good at word problems. I will also give the brainliest answer.​

Answers

Answer:

Plain is $7 and Holiday is $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Castel: 2p + 5h = 89

Kali: 9p + 10h = 213

Double Castel's: 4p + 10h = 178

Subtract fro Kali's   9p + 10h = 213

                              - 4p + 10h = 178

5p = 35

p = 7  Plain is $7

Substitute 7 into one of the equations and solve for h:

2(7) + 5h = 89

14 + 5h = 89

5h = 75

h = 15  Holiday is $15

Use traditional division to solve 6432 ÷ 24.

Fido ate 52 containers of ice cream in 13 different flavors, with 4 of the container containing each flavor. If the first 5 containers were chosen at random, without replacement, what are the chances that 4 of those containers are the same flavor.

Answers

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0002 = 0.02% probability that 4 of those containers are the same flavor.

The flavors are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. N is the size of the population. n is the size of the sample. k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem:

There are 52 containers, hence [tex]N = 52[/tex]For each flavor, there are 4 containers, hence [tex]k = 4[/tex]5 containers are chosen, hence [tex]n = 5[/tex]

The probability of choosing all containers of one flavors is P(X = 4).

There are 13 containers, hence, the probability is multiplied by 13.

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = h(4,52,5,4) = \frac{C_{4,4}C_{48,1}}{C_{52,5}} = 0.000018469[/tex]

13 x 0.000018469 = 0.0002

0.0002 = 0.02% probability that 4 of those containers are the same flavor.

A similar problem is given at https://brainly.com/question/25743676

The probability that 4 of those containers are the same flavor is 0.02% and this can be determined by using the Hypergeometric distribution.

Given :

Fido ate 52 containers of ice cream in 13 different flavors, with 4 containers containing each flavor. The first 5 containers were chosen at random, without replacement.

The probability according to the Hypergeometric distribution is given by:

[tex]\rm P(X=x) = h(x,N,n,k)=\dfrac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]     --- (1)

where the total number of successes is 'x', population size is 'N', the sample size is 'n', and the total number of desired outcomes is 'k'.

Now, substitute the values of known terms in the expression (1).

[tex]\rm P(X=4) = h(4,52,5,4)=\dfrac{C_{4,4}C_{48,1}}{C_{52,5}}[/tex]

[tex]\rm P(X=4) =0.000018469[/tex]

Now, multiply the above result by 13.

[tex]13\times 0.000018469=0.0002[/tex]

So, the probability that 4 of those containers are the same flavor is 0.02%.
