Parenthesis always comes first, then exponents, multiplication and division, adding and subtracting
To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you must use a^2 + b^2 = c^2
* keep in mind the hypotenuse MUST be larger than the legs.
The Pythagorean Theorem comes from making 2 squares from the lengths of each leg (that is why it is a^2 and b^2). The hypotenuse must be equal to the area of the two squares created.
Answer:
-2.61803398875, -0.38196601125
or
(-3±√5)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, expand. (2x+3)² = 4x²+12x+9=5
4x²+12x+4 = 0
Quadratic equations take the form ax²+bx+c = 0
In this case,
a = 4
b = 12
c = 4
You can solve with the equation x=(-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
Plug in:
(-12±√144-64)/8
(-12±√80)/8
(-12±√2^4×5)/8
(-12±4√5)/8
(-3±√5)/2
Final answer x = (-3±√5)/2

Answer:
B: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the mean:
5+8+4+7= 24
24/4=6
Answer:
With the given margin of error its is possible that candidate A wins and candidate B loses, and it is also possible that candidate B wins and candidate A loses. Therefore, the poll cannot predict the winner and this is why race was too close to call a winner.
Step-by-step explanation:
A group conducted a poll of 2083 likely voters.
The results of poll indicate candidate A would receive 47% of the popular vote and and candidate B would receive 44% of the popular vote.
The margin of error was reported to be 3%
So we are given two proportions;
A = 47%
B = 44%
Margin of Error = 3%
The margin of error shows by how many percentage points the results can deviate from the real proportion.
Case I:
A = 47% + 3% = 50%
B = 44% - 3% = 41%
Candidate A wins
Case II:
A = 47% - 3% = 44%
B = 44% + 3% = 47%
Candidate B wins
As you can see, with the given margin of error its is possible that candidate A wins and candidate B loses, and it is also possible that candidate B wins and candidate A loses. Therefore, the poll cannot predict the winner and this is why race was too close to call a winner.
