Answer:
The intermediate step are;
1) Separate the constants from the terms in x² and x
2) Divide the equation by the coefficient of x²
3) Add the constants that makes the expression in x² and x a perfect square and factorize the expression
Step-by-step explanation:
The function given in the question is 6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15
The intermediate steps in the to express the given function in the form (x + a)² = b are found as follows;
6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15
We get
1) Subtract 207 from both sides gives 6·x² + 48·x = 15 - 207 = -192
6·x² + 48·x = -192
2) Dividing by 6 x² + 8·x = -32
3) Add the constant that completes the square to both sides
x² + 8·x + 16 = -32 +16 = -16
x² + 8·x + 16 = -16
4) Factorize (x + 4)² = -16
5) Compare (x + 4)² = -16 which is in the form (x + a)² = b
Answer:
a. 0.38%
b. 266.75 days
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following data, mean (m) 269 and standard deviation (sd) 15, therefore:
a. The first thing is to calculate the number z:
z (x) = (x - m) / sd
z (309) = (309-269) / 15 = 2.67
When looking in the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at this value of z, the probability is:
P (z> 2.67), that is to say we must look in the table -2.67 and this value corresponds to 0.0038, that is to say 0.38%
b. Find the z-value with a left tail of 44%, i.e. 0.44. We look in the table for this value and what value of z corresponds.
invNorm (0.44) = -0.15
Find the corresponding number of days:
x = z * sd + m
we replace
d = -0.15 * 15 + 269 = 266.75 days
7% in decimal form is 0.07
Answer:
Y = 4/3x + 0
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3,-4) and (3,4) can be plugged in to rise over run.
y 4 -(-4) = 8
x 3 - (-3) = 6
8/6 = 4/3
Plug into slope intercept form
4 = 4/3(3) + b
4 = 12/3 +b
4 = 4 +b
Subtract from both sides
0 = b
Y = 4/3x + 0
