Answer:

2 = x          -7 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 7)

y  = (x - 2)(x + 7)

Set y = 0

0 = (x - 2)(x + 7)

Using the zero product property

0 = x-2    0 = x+7

2 = x          -7 = x

Answer:

Zeros happen when f(x) = 0. There are two zeros in the given function:

Therefore solve both equations above and you'll get:

Answer:

-(x + 3)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the difference of squares we can factor this expression.

[tex](9 - x^2)\\= (3^2 - x^2)\\= (3 + x)(3 - x)\\= -(3 + x)(-3 + x)\\= -(x + 3)(x - 3)[/tex]

It doesn't change because to add fractions, you need a common denominator. To find it, they multiplied 1/3 by 2 to make 2/6, to add to the 3/6.

The missing side length is 10 unit.

The relationship between the three sides of a right-angled triangle is explained by the Pythagoras theorem, commonly known as the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of a triangle's hypotenuse is equal to the sum of its other two sides' squares.

We have,

Perpendicular = 6

Base = 8

Using Pythagoras theorem

c² = P² + B²

c² = 6² + 8²

c²= 36 + 64

c² = 100

c= 10 unit.

Thus, the missing length is 10 unit.

Answer:

3.564 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the original garden is

A = 5.4 * 1.5 = 8.1

The new garden is

5.4*1.2 = 6.48 by 1.5*1.2 =1.8

The area is

A = 6.48*1.8=11.664

The increase in area is

11.664-8.1=3.564

The given information is,

To find the increase in area of the garden.

Formula we use,

→ Area = Length × Width

Area of the real garden is,

→ 5.4 × 1.5

→ 8.1 m

The new garden will be,

→ 5.4 × 1.2 = 6.48 m

→ 1.5 × 1.2 = 1.8 m

The area of the new garden is,

→ 6.48 × 1.8

→ 11.664

Then the increase in area of the garden,

→ 11.664 - 8.1

→ 3.564 m²

Hence, 3.564 m² is the increase in area.

Answer:

The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set 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]

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120.

This means that [tex]\mu = 500, \sigma = 120[/tex]

What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers?

The 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.85, so X when Z = 1.037.

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

[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 500}{120}[/tex]

[tex]X - 500 = 1.037*120[/tex]

[tex]X = 624.44[/tex]

The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

Answer: -3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding z we get  

z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y

  = -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.

After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose

y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z

Then  

z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2

z=8x^2+6x+9/4

To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) 0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b) 0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c) 0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young to get tattoos, or they do not say this. The probability of a person saying this is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

24​% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.

This means that [tex]p = 0.24[/tex]

Six adults

This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]

a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 0). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.24)^{0}.(0.76)^{6} = 0.1927[/tex]

0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 1). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.24)^{1}.(0.76)^{5} = 0.3651[/tex]

0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

This is:

[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1927 + 0.3651 = 0.5578[/tex]

0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Answer:

The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:

9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X

0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X

0.000073 = X

100X = 0.0073

Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Answer:

A, B, and E apply

Step-by-step explanation:

One thing we can do is to make everything in the same format, under one square root, with no non-square roots.

First, we can say that 6 is equal to √36 as 6² =36, and 6 ≥ 0. Therefore, 6√3 = √36 * √3 = √108

For A, √3 * √36 = √108, so this applies

For B, √18 * √6 = √108, so this applies

For C, 108² = √something bigger than 108 = √11664, so this does not apply

For D, √54 ≠ √108, so this does not apply

For E, √108 = √108, so this applies

For F, √3 * √6 = √18, so this does not apply

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Scale = 2 inches represents 5 miles

This means that 2 inches in the map equals to 5 miles on ground ;

Hence, if the trail measures 12 inches on the map, the length on ground will be ; x

2 inches = 5 miles

12 inches = x miles

Cross multiply :

2x = (12 * 5)

2x = 60

x = 60 / 2

x = 30 miles
