the difference of the square of a number and 12 is equal to 4 times that number. find the positive solution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex] x = 6 , -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x .

According to the Question ,

[tex]\implies x^2 - 12 = 4x \\\\\implies x^2 -4x -12 = 0 \\\\\implies x^2 -6x + 2x -12 = 0 \\\\\implies x(x-6)+2(x-6) = 0 \\\\\implies (x-6)(x+2)=0\\\\\implies \boxed{\boxed{ x = 6 , -2}}[/tex]

Hence the number can be 6 or -2.

g A report on the nightly news broadcast stated that 10 out of 108 households with pet dogs were burglarized and 20 out of 208 without pet dogs were burglarized. Suppose that this data is used to test the claim that the proportion of households with dogs that are burglarized is the same as the proportion of households without dogs that are burglarized. What would be the test statistic for this test

Answers

Answer:

Test statistic  |Z| = 0.1040 < 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that a report on the nightly news broadcast stated that 10 out of 108 households with pet dogs  were burglarized

First proportion

              [tex]p_{1} = \frac{x_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{10}{108} = 0.0925[/tex]

Given that a report on the nightly news broadcast stated that  20 out of 208 households without pet dogs were burglarized

Second proportion

              [tex]p_{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{n_{2} } = \frac{20}{208} = 0.0961[/tex]

where

           [tex]P = \frac{n_{1}p_{1} +n_{2}p_{2} }{n_{1} +n_{2} }[/tex]

         P = 0.09486

       Q = 1 - P = 1 - 0.09486 = 0.90514

Step(ii):-

Test statistic

        [tex]Z = \frac{p_{1}-p_{2} }{\sqrt{PQ(\frac{1}{n_{1} } +\frac{1}{n_{2} } )} }[/tex]

       

      [tex]Z = \frac{0.0925-0.0961 }{\sqrt{0.09486 X 0.90514(\frac{1}{108 } +\frac{1}{208 } )} }[/tex]

     Z =    -0.1040

|Z| = |-0.1040|

|Z| = 0.1040

Critical value Z = 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

Alma is estimating the proportion of students in her school district who, in the past month, read at least 1 book. From a random sample of 50 students, she found that 32 students read at least 1 book last month. Assuming all conditions for inference are met, which of the following defines a 90 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all students in her district who read at least 1 book last month?
a. 32 + or - 1.645 underroot(32)(18)/50.
b. 32 + or - + 1.96 underroot(32)(18)/50.
c. 0.64 + or - 1.282 underroot(0.64)(0.36)/50.
d. 0.64 + or - 1.645 underroot(0.64)(0.36)/50.
e. 0.64 + or - 1.96 underroot(0.64)(0.36)/50.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.64 \pm 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.64*0.36}{50}}[/tex], option D

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

From a random sample of 50 students, she found that 32 students read at least 1 book last month.

This means that [tex]n = 50, \pi = \frac{32}{50} = 0.64[/tex]

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

Confidence interval:

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.64 \pm 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.64*0.36}{50}}[/tex]

So the correct answer is given by option D.

Find the length of chord AD

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  AD = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The products of the segment lengths are the same.

  (x -2)(x +7) = 4(2x -1)

  x^2 +5x -14 = 8x -4

  x^2 -3x -10 = 0

  (x -5)(x +2) = 0

The positive solution is x=5.

Chord AD is ...

  (x -2) +(x +7) = 2x +5 = 2(5) +5 = 15

Chord AD is 15 units long.

Judy built a rectangular patio that is 9 units wide and has a perimeter of 40 units.

Which image correctly labels the given information?

Answers

Answer:

See attachment for image

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Width = 9[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 40[/tex]

Required

The image that illustrates the patio

The question is incomplete as the possible images are not given. So, I will attach an image that illustrates the scenario.

But first, the length of the patio must be calculated using perimeter formula

[tex]Perimeter = 2 *(Length + Width)[/tex]

[tex]40 = 2 *(Length + 9)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]20 = Length + 9[/tex]

Solve for Length

[tex]Length = 20 - 9[/tex]

[tex]Length = 11[/tex]

This implies that the dimension of the patio is 11 units by 9 units (See attachment)

A car travels a distance of 50km in 30mins. what is the average speed?​

Answers

Answer:

r = 100 km/hr is the average speed of the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula which relates distance d, time t, and speed or rate of travel r is:

d = rt.

We're given that the distance traveled d = 50 km and the time t traveled = 30 minutes = 1/2 hr. Substituting this given information into the distance-rate-time formula for d and t to find r, we get:

50 km = r(1/2 hr)

Now, dividing both sides by 1/2 hr, we have:

50 km/(1/2 hr) = [r(1/2 hr)]/(1/2 hr)

50 km/(1/2 hr) = r[(1/2 hr)/(1/2 hr)]

[50 km/(1/2)] km/hr = r[(1/2 hr)/(1/2 hr)]

50(2/1) km/hr = r[1]

100 km/hr = r[1]

r = 100 km/hr is the average speed of the car.

$2,800

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is I = PRT, where I is the interest (earned or paid), P is the principal amount invested/borrowed, R is the rate in decimal form, and T is the time in years.

I = (2000)(0.05)(8)

I = $800

O A'(4.1), B (3,5), C' (1.1)
O A'(0,2), B(1, -2). C'(3.2)
O A'(0.2), B (1,2), C'(-3,-2)

Answers

Answer:

A'(0,2), B(1, -2). C'(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = (-4,-1)[/tex]

[tex]B = (-3,-5)[/tex]

[tex]C =(-1,-1)[/tex]

Solving (a); Graph and Label ABC

See attachment for graph

Solving (b): Graph and Label A'B'C'

Translation:

4 units right

3 units up

4 units right

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x + 4,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]A = (-4,-1)[/tex] ==> [tex](-4+4,-1) =(0,-1)[/tex]

[tex]B = (-3,-5)[/tex] ==> [tex](-3+4,-5) =(1,-5)[/tex]

[tex]C =(-1,-1)[/tex] ==> [tex](-1+4,-1) =(3,-1)[/tex]

3 units up

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x,y+3)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](0,-1)[/tex] ==> [tex]A' =(0,-1+3) = (0,2)[/tex]

[tex](1,-5)[/tex] ==> [tex]B' =(1,-5+3) = (1,-2)[/tex]

[tex](3,-1)[/tex] ==> [tex]C' =(3,-1+3) = (3,2)[/tex]

The coordinates of A' B' and C' are:

A'(0,2), B(1, -2). C'(3,2)
