Answer:

x < -5  or  x = 1  or  2 < x < 3  or  x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given <u>rational inequality</u>:

\dfrac{(x-1)^2(x-2)^3}{(x^2-5x+6)^2(x+5)}\geq 0

\textsf{Factor }(x^2-5x+6):

\implies x^2-2x-3x+6

\implies x(x-2)-3(x-2)

\implies (x-3)(x-2)

Therefore:

\dfrac{(x-1)^2(x-2)^3}{(x-3)^2(x-2)^2(x+5)}\geq 0

Find the roots by solving f(x) = 0  (set the numerator to zero):

\implies (x-1)^2(x-2)^3=0

\implies (x-1)^2=0\implies x=1

\implies (x-2)^3=0 \implies x=2

Find the restrictions by solving f(x) = <em>undefined  </em>(set the denominator to zero):

\implies (x-3)^2(x-2)^2(x+5)=0

\implies (x-3)^2=0 \implies x=3

\implies (x-2)^2=0 \implies x=2

\implies (x+5)=0 \implies x=-5

Create a sign chart, using closed dots for the <u>roots</u> and open dots for the <u>restrictions</u> (see attached).

Choose a test value for each region, including one to the left of all the critical values and one to the right of all the critical values.

Test values:  -6, 0, 1.5, 2.5, 4

For each test value, determine if the function is positive or negative:

f(-6)=\dfrac{(-6-1)^2(-6-2)^3}{(-6-3)^2(-6-2)^2(-6+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(-)}=+

f(0)=\dfrac{(0-1)^2(0-2)^3}{(0-3)^2(0-2)^2(0+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(+)}=-

f(1.5)=\dfrac{(1.5-1)^2(1.5-2)^3}{(1.5-3)^2(1.5-2)^2(1.5+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(+)}=-

f(2.5)=\dfrac{(2.5-1)^2(2.5-2)^3}{(2.5-3)^2(2.5-2)^2(2.5+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(+)}{(+)(+)(+)}=+

f(4)=\dfrac{(4-1)^2(4-2)^3}{(4-3)^2(4-2)^2(4+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(+)}{(+)(+)(+)}=+

Record the results on the sign chart for each region (see attached).

As we need to find the values for which f(x) ≥ 0, shade the appropriate regions (zero or positive) on the sign chart (see attached).

Therefore, the solution set is:

x < -5  or  x = 1  or  2 < x < 3  or  x > 3

As interval notation:

(- \infty,-5) \cup x=1 \cup (2,3) \cup(3,\infty)

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Option b - not significantly greater than 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A random sample of 100 people was taken i.e. n=100

Eighty of the people in the sample favored Candidate i.e. x=80

We have used single sample proportion test,

p=\frac{x}{n}

p=\frac{80}{100}

p=0.8

Now we define hypothesis,

Null hypothesis H_0 : candidate A is significantly greater than 75%.

Alternative hypothesis H_1 : candidate A is not significantly greater than 75%.

Level of significance \alpha=0.05

Applying test statistic Z -proportion,

Z=\frac{\widehat{p}-p_0}{\sqrt{\frac{p_0(1-p_0)}{n}}}

Where, \widehat{p}=80\%=0.80 and p=75%=0.75

Substitute the values,

Z=\frac{0.80-0.75}{\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{100}}}

Z=\frac{0.80-0.75}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1875}{100}}}

Z=\frac{0.05}{0.0433}

Z=1.1547

The p-value is

P(Z>1.1547)=1-P(Z

P(Z>1.1547)=1-0.8789

P(Z>1.1547)=0.1241

Now, the p-value is greater than the 0.05.

So we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the A is not significantly greater than 75%.

Therefore, Option b is correct.
