The expression x^2 -7x + 10 can be written in factored form as given by Option C: (x-2)(x-5)

<h3>How to find the factors of a quadratic expression?</h3>

If the given quadratic expression is of the form ax^2 + bx + c

then its factored form is obtained by two numbers alpha( α ) and beta( β) such that:

b = \alpha + \beta \\ ac =\alpha \times \beta

Then writing b in terms of alpha and beta would help us getting common factors out.

Sometimes, it is not possible to find factors easily, so using the quadratic equation formula can help out without any trial and error.

For this case, we're provided the expression:

x^2 -7x + 10

We can write 10 as multiple of -5 and -2 and

we can write -7 as sum of -5 and -2. Thus, we get:

x^2 -7x + 10 = x^2 -5x - 2x + 10 = x(x-5+ -2(x-5) = (x-2)(x-5)

Thus, the expression x^2 -7x + 10 can be written in factored form as given by Option C: (x-2)(x-5)

Construct a 95​% confidence interval to estimate the population mean using the data below. x overbarequals37 sigmaequals10 nequa
kap26 [50]

Answer:

With 95% confidence when n equals 44, the population mean is between a lower limit of 33.96 and an upper limit of 40.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval = mean + or - Error margin (E)

mean = 37

sd = 10

n = 44

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 44 - 1 = 43

t-value corresponding to 43 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 2.0165

E = t × sd/√n = 2.0165×10/√44 = 3.04

Lower limit = mean - E = 37 - 3.04 = 33.96

Upper limit = mean + E = 37 + 3.04 = 40.04

95% confidence interval is between 33.96 and 40.04

Could someone pls explain this step by step? Really simplify it pls because I don't understand it at all.
Lunna [17]

Answer:

  • y = 2x -6
  • y = -x +2
  • y = 4/5x -2
  • y = -3/2x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation for a line is ...

  y = mx +b . . . . . where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

For these equations, writing them in slope-intercept form means "solve for y." You always do any "solve for ..." problem by undoing the operations that are done to the variable. Addition is undone by adding the opposite. Multiplication is undone by division.

As always, whatever operation we perform on one side of the equal sign must also be performed on the other side. That is how the equal sign remains valid.

__

<h3>a)</h3>

  1/2y = x -3

All we need to do is get rid of the coefficient of y. We can do that by dividing by 1/2, or multiplying by 2. The latter is easier to see, perhaps.

 2(1/2y) = 2(x -3)

  y = 2x +2(-3)

  y = 2x -6

__

<h3>b)</h3>

  x +y = 2

Here, we need to undo the addition of x. We do that by adding (-x) to both sides of the equation.

  -x +x +y = -x +2

  y = -x +2

__

<h3>c)</h3>

  4x -5y -10 = 0

This is a combination of the above operations. We can separate the y-term from the others by either subtracting the others, or adding the opposite of the y-term. We choose the latter, because that will give a positive coefficient for y. Adding 5y to both sides gives ...

  4x -5y +5y -10 = 5y

  5y = 4x -10 . . . . . . . . simplify and put y on the left

Now, we need to divide by the coefficient of y. We do that to both sides of the equation.

  5y/5 = (4x -10)/5

  y = 4/5x -10/5

  y = 4/5x -2

__

<h3>d)</h3>

  3x = -2y +8

We have a constant with the y-term. To get rid of it, we add its opposite to both sides.

  3x -8 = -2y +8 -8

  3x -8 = -2y

As before, we divide by the coefficient of y:

  (3x -8)/(-2) = (-2y)/(-2)

  -3/2x +4 = y

  y = -3/2x +4
