The probability of getting a red gumball from a gumball machine is 1/8. The probability of getting a red piece of candy from a candy machine is 1/6. If both a gumball and a piece of candy are purchased, what is the probability that both are red?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant must be zero.

Discriminant = (-48)^2 - 4*9k = 2304 - 36K

36k = 2304

k = 64

Using the square of a subtraction, it is found that k = 64.

It is a notable product, given by:

[tex](ax - b)^2 = a^2x^2 - 2abx + b^2[/tex]

In this problem, the expression is:

[tex]9x^2 - 48x + k[/tex]

We want it to be the square of a binomial, hence:

[tex]a^2x^2 - 2abx + b^2 = 9x^2 - 48x + k[/tex]

Then, comparing both sides, first the value of a is found:

[tex]a^2 = 9[/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{9}[/tex]

[tex]a = 3[/tex]

Then, with the second term, the value of b is found.

[tex]2ab = 48[/tex]

[tex]6b = 48[/tex]

[tex]b = \frac{48}{6}[/tex]

[tex]b = 8[/tex]

Finally, the value of k is found.

[tex]k = b^2 = 8^2 = 64[/tex]

answer:

2/5=0.4

2/5=40%

step-by-step explanation:

to get 2/5 as a decimal you can simply just divide 2÷5 which is 0.4

and from there you can use 0.4 to find the percentage multiply 0.4 x 100 which is 40

good luck :)

Answer:

15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation where x is the number of years

32,000 + 600x = 56,000 - 1000x

Solve for x:

600x = 24,000 - 1000x

1600x = 24,000

x = 15

So, it will take 15 years for both cities to have the same number of residents

Answer:

The age of Joey is 4 years  and

The age of Martina is 22 years .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Martina is 18 years older than her Joey

In 5 years, Martina will be three times older than Joey

Let The age of Martina = M years

And The age of Joey = J years

Now, According to questions

M = J + 18          ........1

(M+5) = 3 × (J+5)

Or, M + 5 = 3 J + 15

Or, M - 3 J = 15 - 5

∴ M - 3 J = 10                ..........2

Solving eq 1 and 2

Put the value of M from eq 1 into eq 2

So, (J + 18) - 3 J = 10

Or, J - 3 J = 10 - 18

Or, - 2 J = - 8

∴ J =

i.e J = 4 years

So, The age of Joey = J = 4 years

Now, Put the value of J in eq 1

So, M = J + 18

Or, M = 4 + 18

∴ M = 22 years

So, The age of Martina = M = 22 years

Hence,The age of Joey is 4 years  and The age of Martina is 22 years . Answer

Answer:

[tex]y = -x -1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Passed through (-5,4)

Parallel to: y=-x + 6

Required

Determine the line equation

If it is parallel to: y=-x + 6, then it means that they have the same slope.

A linear equation y = mx + b has the slope m.

So, by comparison of y = mx + b  to y = -x + 6

[tex]m = -1[/tex]

The line equation is then calculated as:

[tex]y=m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

Where

[tex]m = -1[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-5,4)[/tex]

So:

[tex]y = -1(x - (-5)) + 4[/tex]

[tex]y = -1(x +5) + 4[/tex]

[tex]y = -x -5 + 4[/tex]

[tex]y = -x -1[/tex]
