Solve by factoring the quadratic equation 2x2 + 13x
=
-21.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = - [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex], x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + 13x = - 21 ( add 21 to both sides )

2x² + 13x + 21 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × 21 = 42 and sum = + 13

The factors are + 6 and + 7

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² + 6x + 7x + 21 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x + 3) + 7(x + 3) = 0 ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

(x + 3)(2x + 7) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

2x + 7 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 7 ⇒ x = - [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]

Evaluate f (x) = 3x – 5 when x = -1, x = 0, and x = 3.
When x = -1, f (x) = –2 , when r = 0, f (x) = -5), and when x = 3, f (x) = 4).

Answers

f(x) = 3x − 5 when x=−1, x=0, x=3

Answer:

-8, -2, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Insert -1, 0, and 3 into x

2. Solve

Replace x with -1: f(-1) = 3(-1) − 5

Multiply 3(-1): f(-1) = -3 − 5

Subtract by 5: f(-1) = -8

The answer is -8

Now do this for the rest of the problems:

f(0) = 3(0) − 5 when x=−1, x=0, and x=3

-2 is the 2nd answer

f(3) = 3(3) − 5 when x=−1, x=0, and x=3

4 is the 3rd answer

Mark is building two separate pig-pens. The width of pig-pen A is w. The length of pig-pen A is 4 feet longer than its width. The width of pig-pen B is 5 feet less than the width of pig-pen A. The length of pig-pen B is 2 times its own width. If the both pig-pens have the same perimeter, then find the dimensions of each pig-pen.

Answers

Answer:

The width of pen A is 7 feet,

The Length of Pen A is  11 feet,

The width of Pen B is 6 feet,

The Length of Pen B is 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of pen A is 7 feet,

The Length of Pen A is 7 + 4 = 11 feet,

The width of Pen B is 7+4-5 = 6 feet,

The Length of Pen B is 2*(7+4-5) = 12 feet

It is known that 5% of flashlight bulbs manufactured by a certain company are defective. a. Use the normal approximation to estimate the probability that, out of a random sample of 600 lightbulbs, at least 25 are defective. (5 points) b. Use the normal approximation to estimate the probability that, out of a random sample of 600 lightbulbs, fewer than 20 are defective. (5 points)

Answers

Using the normal approximation to the binomial, the probabilities are given by:

a) 0.8485 = 84.85%.

b) 0.0244 = 2.44%.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.The binomial distribution is the probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability of a success on each trial. It can be approximated to the normal distribution with [tex]\mu = np, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex].

In this problem, we have that:

There are 600 bulbs, hence n = 600.5% are defective, hence p = 0.05.

The mean and the standard deviation of the approximation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = np = 600(0.05) = 30[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{600(0.05)(0.95)} = 5.3385[/tex]

Item a:

Using continuity correction, the probability is P(X > 24.5), which is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 24.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{24.5 - 30}{5.3385}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.03[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.03[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1515.

1 - 0.1515 = 0.8485.

0.8485 = 84.85% probability.

Item b:

This probability is P(X < 19.5), which is the p-value of Z when X = 19.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{19.5 - 30}{5.3385}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.97[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.97[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0244.

The probability is of 0.0244 = 2.44%.

The overall pass rate for law school graduates taking the Maryland bar exam has been reported as 76%. Assume that a certain Maryland law school has had 400 of its most recent graduates take the Maryland bar exam, but only 60% passed. When asked about these results, the dean of this university’s law school claims his graduates are just as good as others who have taken the Maryland bar exam, and the low pass rate for the recent graduates was just "one of those statistical fluctuations that happen all the time." If this university’s overall pass rate were really 76%, what would be the probability of a simple random sample of 400 having a pass rate of 60% or less

Answers

Answer:

The probability is [tex]P(X \le 0.60) = 0.000 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The overall pass rate is  [tex]R  =  76\% =  0.76[/tex]

   The sample size is  n  =  400

   The percentage that passed is  [tex]k =  60\%  =  0.60[/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\sigma _{\= x } =  \sqrt{\frac{R (1 -R)}{n} }[/tex]    

  =>    [tex]\sigma _{\= x } =  \sqrt{\frac{0.76 (1 -0.76)}{400} }[/tex]

  =>    [tex]\sigma _{\= x } = 0.0214 [/tex]  

Generally the probability of a simple random sample of 400 having a pass rate of 60% or less is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X \le 0.60) = P(\frac{X - R}{ \sigma_{\= x}}  \le \frac{0.60 - 0.76}{0.0214} )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X \le 0.60) = P(Z \le -7.48 )[/tex]

Generally from the z-table  

      [tex]P(Z \le -7.48 ) =  0.000[/tex]

So

  [tex]P(X \le 0.60) = 0.000 [/tex]

Match each complex number with its equivalent expression.

i
-1
1
-i

i^48
i^223
i^113
i^82

Answers

Remember that i = √(-1), so that

i ² = -1,

i ³ = i x i ² = i x (-1) = -i

i ⁴ = i x i ³ = i x (-i) = -i ² = -(-1) = 1

Multiplying by i again gives i ⁵ = i and the cycle starts over.

The main observation to make here is that raising i to any multiple of 4 returns 1. So,

i ⁴⁸ = (i ⁴)¹² = 1¹² = 1

i ²²³ = i ²²⁰⁺³ = i ²²⁰ x i ³ = (i ⁴)⁵⁵ x i ³ = 1⁵⁵ x (-i) = -i

i ¹¹³ = i ¹¹²⁺¹ = i ¹¹² x i = (i ⁴)²⁸ x i = 1²⁸ x i = i

i ⁸² = i ⁸⁰⁺² = i ⁸⁰ x i ² = (i ⁴)²⁰ x i ² = 1²⁰ x (-1) = -1

i^48 = 1

i^223 = -i

i^113 = i

i^82 = -1

Given that n is a positive number, write, in a symbolic statement, ‘the square of a positive number decreased by 10 is 6’​

Answers

Answer:

  n² -10 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If n represents a positive number, then "the square of a positive number" is represented by n². When that value is decreased by 10, it becomes ...

  n² -10

and if that value is 6, the math expression is ...

  n² -10 = 6

__

Additional comment

Increasing the value by 10 gives ...

  n² = 16

and taking the positive square root gives us the value of the number:

  n = √16 = 4

WE HAVE PROVIDED QUESTION :-Given that n is a positive number, write, in a symbolic statement, ‘the square of a positive number decreased by 10 is 6’

SOLUTION :-

in this question we have to multiply 4 with 4 then we have to minus 16 with 10 we get the answer 6

so, first we have to multiply the 4 with 4

= 4 × 4 = 16

then, we have to minus 16 with 10 we get :-

= 16 - 10

we get :-

= 6

in this question we have get 16 because √16 is the square root of 4
