Is writing a 3 before a square root symbol the same as writing it after a square root symbol?

1 answer:

4 0

This depends as to whether you are just multiplying the square root by 3, or are doing a cube root function. In a cube root, the 3 would be located just at the bent part of the square root symbol, usually in a smaller font. If one just wanted to multiply a square root by 3, it does not matter whether or not the 3 comes before or after the root.

A cube root is equal to a value to the power of (1/3).

I hope this helps

In general, what can you conclude about a pair of angles that are both congruent and supplementary?

dem82 [27]

Answer:

Both angles are right angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°. Since we know that both angles are congruent, let's call them x and x. We can write the following equation:

x + x = 180

2x = 180

x = 90°

Therefore, we can conclude that both angles are right angles.

Answer: a) (1008.34,1019.658) b) (1009.24,1018.76)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 75

mean = 1014 hours

Standard deviation = 25 hours

At 95% two sided , z = 1.96

So, confidence interval would be

$\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1014\pm 1.96\dfrac{25}{\sqrt{75}}\\\\=1014\pm 5.658\\\\=(1014-5.658,1014+5.658)\\\\=(1008.34,1019.658)$

(b) Construct a 95% lower confidence bound on the mean life.

z = 1.65

So, confidence interval would be

$\bar{x}\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1014\pm 1.65\times \dfrac{25}{\sqrt{75}}\\\\=1014\pm 4.76\\\\=(1014-4.76,1014+4.76)\\\\=(1009.24,1018.76)$
