How do I answer the question -x^2-6x+16=0 using the quadratic formula?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = -8 or 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare your equation to the standard form equation.

  -x^2 -6x +16 = 0 . . . . . . your equation

  ax^2 +bx +c = 0 . . . . . . standard form equation

Identify the values of 'a', 'b', and 'c'.

  a = -1

  b = -6

  c = 16

Fill in these values in the quadratic formula and do the arithmetic.

  [tex]x = \dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x=\dfrac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(-1)(16)}}{2(-1)}=\dfrac{6\pm\sqrt{100}}{-2}\\\\x=-3\pm5=\{-8,2\}[/tex]

The solutions are x = -8 and x = 2.

on the last 5 quizzes, marco has earned a total of 21 out of 25 possible points. if he has a perfect score on the next several quizzes, exactly how many points will he need to bring up his average up to 90%

Answers

Using the mean concept, it is found that we will need 15 more points to bring up his average up to 90%.

The mean of a data-set is the sum of all observations divided by the number of observations.

In this problem:

In the first 5 observations, total of 21 out of 25 points, hence the mean for these observations is [tex]\frac{21}{25} = 0.84[/tex].In the next n observations, mean of 1.

Hence, the mean is:

[tex]M = \frac{0.84(5) + n}{5 + n} = \frac{4.2 + n}{5 + n}[/tex]

We want the mean to be of 0.9, thus:

[tex]M = 0.9[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4.2 + n}{5 + n} = 0.9[/tex]

[tex]4.2 + n = 0.9n + 4.5[/tex]

[tex]0.1n = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]n = \frac{0.3}{0.1}[/tex]

[tex]n = 3[/tex]

3 more testes are need, each worth 5 points, hence, 15 more points are needed to bring up his average up to 90%.

In one jar, I have two balls labelled 1 and 2 respectively. In a second jar, I have three balls labelled 0, 1 and 2 respectively. I draw one ball from each jar, multiply the numbers on the two balls together, and then calculate three to the power of that product, e.g. if I draw 1 and 2, I calculate 3^2=9. Let’s call this number X. What is the probability that the number 1,024 is an exact multiple of X?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a kind of trick question, actually.

with whatever we draw, we produce X values as power of 3.

to be precise, we can have only

3⁰ = 1

3¹ = 3

3² = 9

3⁴ = 81

due to the possible combinations of drawn numbers (e.g. 3 cannot be created by a multiplication of 0s, 1s and 2s).

so, mostly, these results cannot be exact factors of 1024.

1024 cannot be divided by 3, nor by 9 nor by 81.

but 1024 is a multiple of 1 (as is every number).

so, we are looking at the probability to get 0 as multiplication result of the numbers on the 2 drawn balls.

the only possibilities are

1 and 0

2 and 0

out of in total 6 (2×3) different outcomes

1 and 0

1 and 1

1 and 2

2 and 0

2 and 1

the probability of this "0" event is again

number of desired outcomes / number of possible outcomes = 2/6 = 1/3

The function f(x)=bx^2+x-7 has a remainder of 3 when divided by (x-2), where b is a real constant.Find the value of b

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = bx² + x - 7

g(x) = x — 2

Remainder is 3.

Let us find the zero of g(x).

→ g(x) = 0

→ g(x) = x - 2

→ 0 = x - 2

x = 2

Now, as when f(x) is divided by g(x), then remainder is 3. So,

→ f(2) = 2

→ b(2)² + 2 - 7 = 2

→ 4b - 5 = 2

→ 4b = 7

b = 7/4

Therefore, the answer is 7/4.

A U.S. Coast Guard survey of 500 small boats in the Cape Cod area found 195 in violation of one or more

a. What is the value of the point estimate?
b. What is the critical value you will use for a 95% confidence interval?
C.
What is the value of the standard error?
d. What is the value of the margin of error?
e. State the lower and upper bounds for a 95% confidence interval.
f. State a conclusion, in context.

Answers

Using the information given, it is found that:

a) 0.39

b) z = 1.96

c) s = 0.0218

d) M = 0.0428

e)

The lower bound is 0.3472.The upper bound is 0.4328.

f) The 95% confidence interval is (0.3472, 0.4328), which means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of boats who are in violation of one or more  safety regulations is (0.3472, 0.4328).

Item a:

The point estimate is the sample proportion, hence:

[tex]\pi = \frac{195}{500} = 0.39[/tex]

Item b:

95% confidence level, hence [tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], the critical value z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex].

Item c:

The standard error is:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

For this problem, [tex]\pi = 0.39, n = 500[/tex], hence:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.39(0.61)}{500}}[/tex]

[tex]s = 0.0218[/tex]

Item d:

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

In this problem, [tex]z = 1.96, s = 0.0218[/tex], hence:

[tex]M = zs = 1.96(0.0218) = 0.0428[/tex]

Item e:

The lower bound is:

[tex]\pi - M = 0.39 - 0.0428 = 0.3472[/tex]

The upper bound is:

[tex]\pi + M = 0.39 + 0.0428 = 0.4328[/tex]

The lower bound is 0.3472.

The upper bound is 0.4328.

Item f:

The 95% confidence interval is (0.3472, 0.4328), which means that we are 95% sure that the true proportion of boats who are in violation of one or more  safety regulations is (0.3472, 0.4328).

slope: 2y-intercept: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is most easily found using two grid intersections. We know that the line crosses the grid intersection (0, -1) at the y-axis. (That is the y-intercept.) And it crosses another one at (1, 1), just above the x-axis in the first quadrant.

The slope of the line between these points can be found using the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (1 -(-1))/(1 -0) = 2/1 = 2

The slope can also be found by counting the grid squares of "rise" (2) for each grid square of "run" (1) between those two points or any other convenient points on the line.

  m = rise/run = 2/1 = 2

The slope of the line is 2.

__

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. That point is on an unmarked grid line between y = 0 and y = -2. That is, it is halfway between the values 0 and -2, so is y = -1.

The y-intercept is (0, -1).
