Answer:
4, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can reverse the FOIL (First, outside, inside, last) method to break down the equation. The question is asking to solve by factoring so you want to find the right combination of numbers this equation can be broken down into:
x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
Because we want x squared, x needs to be multiplied by itself, so we can put x in the first slot for each.
(x + or - ?) ( x + or - ?) = 0
Then we need to find numbers that could be added to get -3 and multiplied to get -4. The only set of numbers that works for this is -4 and 1. Note that the sign you put in front of each number has an impact on your answers. With this we get:
(x - 4) (x + 1) = 0
To test that this is equal to the original equation, simply multiply it out using FOIL.
x * x = x^2
x * 1 = x
x * -4 = -4x
-4 * 1 = -4
Putting each component into an equation:
x^2 + x - 4x - 4 = 0
Simplifying:
x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
Once we are sure it is still the same equation, we find the solutions. We know 0 multiplied by anything equals 0, so to get 0 as the answer, one of the sets in the parentheses must equal 0. (It doesn't matter what the other one is as long is one equals 0)
Therefore, we have 2 solutions, 4, and -1 because if x is 4, 4-4 is 0 which solves the equation, and if x is -1, then -1 + 1 is 0 which also solves the equation.
You can also check your answers by plugging them back into the original equation.
The true length of recovery for patients with knee surgery is normally distributed with a mean of 123 days and a standard deviation of 1 day. What proportion of the patients will recover between 121 and 124 days?
Answer:
0.81859
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the length of recovery days for patients with knee surgery is normally distributed with :
Mean, μ = 123 days
Standard deviation, σ = 1 day
The proportion of patients that will recover with 121 and 124 days :
We obtain the Probability of Z score :
Z = (x - μ) / σ
P(Z < (x - μ) / σ) < Z < P(Z < (x - μ) / σ)
P(Z < (121 - 123) / 1) < Z < P(Z < (124 - 123) / 1)
P(Z < - 2) < Z < P(Z < 1)
Using the normal distribution table :
P(Z < 1) - P(Z < - 2)
0.84134 - 0.02275
= 0.81859

Abdul's gas tank is 1/3 full. After he buys 12 gallons of gas, it is 7/9 full. How many gallons can abdul's tank hold
Answer:
Abdul's tank can hold 27 gallons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Abdul's gas tank is 1/3 full, and after he buys 12 gallons of gas, it is 7/9 full, to determine how many gallons can Abdul's tank hold the following calculation must be performed:
1/3 = 0.3333
7/9 = 0.7777
0.777 - 0.333 = 0.444
0.444 = 12
1 = X
12 / 0.444 = X
27 = X
Therefore, Abdul's tank can hold 27 gallons of gas.

Suppose your Unit Quiz grades have been: 85%, 80%, 96%, 72%, 78%, 85% and 92%
a) What is your average/mean score?
b) What is the median score?
c) What is the mode score?
d) Why is the mean lower than the median?
e) What will your mean be if you get a perfect score of 100% on your next quiz?
Answer:
mean: 84
median: 85
mode: 85
explainations for d and e below.
Step-by-step explanation:
mean:
(85+80+96+72+78+85+92)/7 = 544/7 = 84
median:
sort them in order from least to greatest first
72, 78, 80, 85, 85, 92, 96
find the middle number in that order, that's your median. in this case, it's 85.
mode:
number that appears the most in the order; the frequency. in this case as well, it's also 85.
answer for d:
the reason why the mean is lower than the median is because of the fact we were figuring out the average and had to divide, unlike the median where it's just the middle of the order we have.
answer for e:
(85+80+96+72+78+85+92+100)/8 = 644/8 = 80.5%

An Internet company reported that its earnings will be less than the 24 cents per share that was predicted. Write an inequality showing the possible earnings per share.
Answer:
e < 24 is the inequality which shows the possible earnings per share.
Explanation:
x, will stand for the variable for earnings and less than, means it will not be higher nor the same as 24. Thus, being leaves us with one sign. The open part facing 24 means that 24 is the bigger number, therefore the smaller side represents that x has to be smaller than 24.
Answer: x<24
Step-by-step explanation:
x, will stand for the variable for earnings and less than means it will not be higher nor the same as 24. Thus being leaves us with one sign. The open part facing 24 means that 24 is the bigger number therefore the smaller side represents that x has to be smaller than 24.

angle CDT is the opposite angle of ADN
and the segment DF=FN, so AD= AN
and thats why angle FAN= angle FAD
here, Angle FAN =60,
therefore, FAD=60, and AFD = 90 so angle ADN must be 30 degree
and the opposite of ADN is CDT, and the opposite angles are equal.

A rectangle’s perimeter is equal to 27 plus its width. The length of the rectangle is four times its width. What is the width of the rectangle in units?
Answer:
width: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a length l and a width w, we can say that the perimeter is equal to
2 * l + 2 * w. Then, we also know that the perimeter is 27 plus its width, so
2 * l + 2 * w = 27 + w
and the length is 4 times its width, so length = 4 * width = l = 4 * w
We therefore have the two equations
2 * l + 2 * w = 27 + w
l = 4 * w
What we can do is plug 4* w for l in the first equation and solve from there. We thus have
2 * ( 4 * w) + 2 * w = 27 + w
8 * w + 2 * w = 27 + w
10 * w = 27 + w
subtract w from both sides to isolate the w and its coefficient
9 * w = 27
divide both sides by 9 to isolate w
w = 3
l = 4 * w = 12
Therefore, the width is 3 and the length is 12

18 is 65% of what number
Answer:
65% of 27.69 is 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula = Number x 100
Percent = 18 x 100
65 = 27.69
Following shows the steps on how to derive this formula
Step 1: If 65% of a number is 18, then what is 100% of that number? Setup the equation.
18
65% = Y
100%
Step 2: Solve for Y
Using cross multiplication of two fractions, we get
65Y = 18 x 100
65Y = 1800
Y = 1800
100 = 27.69
4x+2y=5 , 2x-3y=13 pair of equations to two decimal places of accuracy.
Answer:
x = 2.56, y = -2.63
Step-by-step explanation:
I first multiplied the second equation by two, getting
4x-6y = 26
I then subtracted the equations
4x+2y = 5
- 4x-6y = 26
--------------------
8y = -21
y = -2.63
with y solved, I plugged it into the second equation to get x:
2x-3(-2.63) = 13
2x+ 7.89 = 13
2x = 5.11
x = 2.56

A coin is tossed three times. An outcome is represented by a string of the sort HTT (meaning a head on the first toss, followed by two tails). The
outcomes are listed in the table below. Note that each outcome has the same probability.
For each of the three events in the table, check the outcome(s) that are contained in the event. Then, in the last column, enter the probability of the event.
Outcomes Probability
HHT HHH THH HTH HTT TTT TTH THT
Event A: Alternating tail and head (with either coming first)
Event B: No tails on the first two tosses
Event C: A tail on both the first and the last tosses
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, the sample space contains 8 elements and has been given as;
HHT HHH THH HTH HTT TTT TTH THT
1. For event A:
Outcomes of alternating tail and head = THH HTH HTT THT
= 4 outcomes
Pr(alternating tail and head (with either coming first)) = [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
2. For event B:
Outcomes of no tails on the first two tosses = HHT HHH
= 2 outcomes
Pr (No tails on the first two tosses) = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
For event C:
Outcomes of a tail on both the first and the last tosses = THT TTT
= 2 outcomes
Pr(A tail on both the first and last tosses) = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Where are the minimum and maximum values for f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x on the interval (0,21]?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Maximum value is when cos x = 1
So it is -2 + 4(1) = 2.
Minimum value, when cos x = -1:
= -2 + 4(-1) = -6.
Answer:
The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.
The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's first look at cos(x) on interval (0,21].
How many rotations is that? Does it at least contain 1 full rotation? If it contains one full rotation that means all the values from -1 to 1 (inclusive) are tagged? If it doesn't contain a full rotation, we might have to dig a little deeper.
So we know x=0 isn't included and that's when cosine is first 1,but this doesn't mean 1 won't be hit later.
Let's figure out the number of rotations:
21/(2pi)=3.3 approximately
This means we make at least 3 rotations.
So this means we definitely will have all the values from -1 to 1 tagged (inclusive).
Now let's look at whole function.
f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x
-2+(-4) to -2+4 will be the range of the function
So the minimum is -6 and the maximum is 2.
So the min occurs when cos(x)=-1 and the max occurs when cos(x)=1.
We have a little over three rotations and remember we can't include x=0.
cos(x)=1
when x=2pi (one full rotation)
when x=4pi (two full rotations)
when x=6pi (three full rotations)
We will stop here because cosine won't be 1 again until a fourth full rotation
cos(x)=-1
when x=pi (half rotation)
When x=3pi (one + half rotation)
When x=5pi (two+half rotation)
We can't include x=7pi (three+half rotation)
because this one is actually not in the interval because 3.5 is more than 3.3 .
The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.
The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

a swimming pool is 130 feet long and the length is 3 times the width plus 10 feet. Let x be the width of the pool. how wide is the pool?
Answer:Perimeter of a rectangle is 2*the length plus 2*the width
P = 2L + 2W and P = 130, so
L + W = 65
Three times the length is equal to 10 times the width, giving
3L = 10W
Substituting into the above for L = 65 – W,
3(65 – W) = 10W
195 – 3W = 10W
195 = 13W
W = 195/13 = 15
W = 15 yards,
And L = (10/3)W = (10/3)*15 = 50
L = 50 yards
