Order the steps for solving this equation using the quadratic formula
X^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps required to solve the given equation is required.

First step: Identify a = 1, b = 3 and c = -4

Second step: [tex]x=\dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt{3^2-4\times 1\left(-4\right)}}{2\times1}[/tex]

Last step: x = 1 and x = -4

Quadratic equation

The given equation is

[tex]x^2+3x-4=0[/tex]

Comparing with the general quadratic equation [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex] we have

a = 1

b = 3

c = -4

Applying the formula

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt{3^2-4\times 1\left(-4\right)}}{2\times1}\\\Rightarrow x=1\ \text{and}\ -4[/tex]

A bag of M&Ms contains 7 blue, 4 brown, 4 orange, 2 yellow, 3 red, and 3
green. Reaching into the bag, a person grabs 5 M&Ms.
What is the probability of getting 3 blues?

Answers

Answer:

0.1248 = 12.48% probability of getting 3 blues.

Step-by-step explanation:

The M&Ms are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[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]

In this question:

7 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 3 + 3 = 23 total M&Ms, which means that [tex]N = 23[/tex]

Sample of 5 means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

7 blue means that [tex]k = 7[/tex]

What is the probability of getting 3 blues?

This is P(X = 3).

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = h(3,23,5,7) = \frac{C_{7,3}*C_{16,2}}{C_{23,5}} = 0.1248[/tex]

0.1248 = 12.48% probability of getting 3 blues.

Solve the following equation by elimination method
2x + y = 25
3x – 2y = 20​

Answers

Answer:

First multiply the first equation by 2

2(2x + y = 25)

You'll have

4x + 2y = 50

Rewrite both equations

4x + 2y = 50

3x - 2y= 20

Add from the first equation you'll get

7x = 70... X = 10

Substitute x in one of the equations:

3(10) - 2y = 20

30 - 2y = 20

-2y = -10

y = 5

13 of August,

Step-by-step explanation:

All of them worked together at day number zero (August 1).

We know that Elvis works every 3rd day

So he will work at:

day 3, day 6, day 9, etc.

We know that Izzy works every 4th day, then she will work at:

day 4, day 8, day 12, etc.

We know that Janaisa works every 6th day, so she will work at:

day 6, day 12, etc.

We just need to find a day where the 3 of them work, this is equivalent to finding a common multiple of the numbers: 3, 4 and 6.

To do it, we can just write the multiples of each one of these numbers and see which one is the first common multiple:

3)

3*1 = 3

3*2 = 6

3*3 = 9

3*4 = 12

3*5 = 15

...

4)

4*1 = 4

4*2 = 8

4*3 = 12

4*4 = 16

...

6)

6*1 = 6

6*2 = 12

So we can see that 12 is a common multiple of the 3 numbers.

Then they will work together 12 days after August 1th.

That would be the 13 of August,

Aaron has a time of 10.6 seconds, and his team has a mean of 11.5 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.1 seconds. Who has the faster time when compared to each of their teams

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "-9".

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\mu = 11.4\\\\\sigma = 0.2\\\\ x = 10.9\\\\[/tex]

[tex]P(X <= 10.9)=?[/tex]

The z-value is determined using the central boundary theorem

[tex]z = \frac{(x - \mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

  [tex]= \frac{(10.9 - 11.4)}{0.2}\\\\ = -2.5[/tex]

Calculating the value for Aaron

[tex]\mu = 11.5\\\\ \sigma = 0.1\\\\ x = 10.6\\\\ P(X <= 10.6)=?[/tex]

When the z-value is calculated using Central Limit Theorem

[tex]z = \frac{(x - \mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

  [tex]= \frac{(10.6 - 11.5)}{0.1}\\\\ = -9[/tex]

The test was not statistically significant because 2 × 0.18 = 0.36, which is less than 0.5.
The test was not statistically significant because if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 18% of the time.
The test was not statistically significant because if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 82% of the time.
The test was statistically significant because a p-value of 0.18 is greater than a significance level of 0.05.
