Mike and Tom share a bookshelf. Three books are about cats, two are about lizards and one book is about tigers. What is the probability that Mike
will randomly grab a book about lizards to read and then Tom will also grab
a book about lizards?

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

an = 22 + (n-1) *6

110 seats

step-by-step explanation:

an=a1+(n-1)(d)

a1 = 22   this is the first item in the sequence

d =6   this is how the sequence goes up

a)   an = 22 + (n-1) *6

b) a12 = 22 + (12-1) *6

    a12 = 22+11*6

  a12 = 22 +88

  a12 = 110

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
