Two sets of quadratic expressions are shown below in various forms: Line 1: x2 + 3x + 2 (x + 1)(x + 2) (x + 1.5)2 − 0.25 Line 2:
Rainbow [258]
Line 1:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
  x² + 2·1.5x + 1.5² - 0.25 = x² +3x +2
Expanding the factored form, we have
  x² +(1+2)x +1·2 = x² +3x +2
Comparing these to x² +3x +2, we find ...
  • the three expressions are equivalent on Line 1

Line 2:
Expanding the vertex form, we have
  x² +2·2.5x +2.5² +6.25 = x² +5x +12.5
Expanding the factored form, we have
  x² +(2+3)x +2·3 = x² +5x +6
Comparing these to x² +5x +6, we find ...
  • the three expressions are NOT equivalent on Line 2

The appropriate choice is

Simplify u^2+3u/u^2-9<br> A.u/u-3, =/ -3, and u=/3<br> B. u/u-3, u=/-3
VashaNatasha [74]
  The correct answer is:  Answer choice:  [A]:
__________________________________________________________
→  "\frac{u}{u-3} " ;  " { u \neq ± 3 } " ; 

          →  or, write as:  " u / (u − 3) " ;  {" u ≠ 3 "}  AND:  {" u ≠ -3 "} ; 
__________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
 We are asked to simplify:
  
  \frac{(u^2+3u)}{(u^2-9)} ;  


Note that the "numerator" —which is:  "(u² + 3u)" — can be factored into:
                                                      →  " u(u + 3) " ;

And that the "denominator" —which is:  "(u² − 9)" — can be factored into:
                                                      →   "(u − 3) (u + 3)" ;
___________________________________________________________
Let us rewrite as:
___________________________________________________________

→    \frac{u(u+3)}{(u-3)(u+3)}  ;

___________________________________________________________

→  We can simplify by "canceling out" BOTH the "(u + 3)" values; in BOTH the "numerator" AND the "denominator" ;  since:

" \frac{(u+3)}{(u+3)} = 1 "  ;

→  And we have:
_________________________________________________________

→  " \frac{u}{u-3} " ;   that is:  " u / (u − 3) " ;  { u\neq 3 } .
                                                                                and:  { u\neq-3 } .

→ which is:  "Answer choice:  [A] " .
_________________________________________________________

NOTE:  The "denominator" cannot equal "0" ; since one cannot "divide by "0" ; 

and if the denominator is "(u − 3)" ;  the denominator equals "0" when "u = -3" ;  as such:

"u\neq3" ; 

→ Note:  To solve:  "u + 3 = 0" ; 

 Subtract "3" from each side of the equation; 

                       →  " u + 3 − 3 = 0 − 3 " ; 

                       → u =  -3 (when the "denominator" equals "0") ; 
 
                       → As such:  " u \neq -3 " ; 

Furthermore, consider the initial (unsimplified) given expression:

→  \frac{(u^2+3u)}{(u^2-9)} ;  

Note:  The denominator is:  "(u²  − 9)" . 

The "denominator" cannot be "0" ; because one cannot "divide" by "0" ; 

As such, solve for values of "u" when the "denominator" equals "0" ; that is:
_______________________________________________________ 

→  " u² − 9 = 0 " ; 

 →  Add "9" to each side of the equation ; 

 →  u² − 9 + 9 = 0 + 9 ; 

 →  u² = 9 ; 

Take the square root of each side of the equation; 
 to isolate "u" on one side of the equation; & to solve for ALL VALUES of "u" ; 

→ √(u²) = √9 ; 

→ | u | = 3 ; 

→  " u = 3" ; AND;  "u = -3 " ; 

We already have:  "u = -3" (a value at which the "denominator equals "0") ; 

We now have "u = 3" ; as a value at which the "denominator equals "0"); 

→ As such: " u\neq 3" ; "u \neq -3 " ;  

or, write as:  " { u \neq ± 3 } " .

Which expression is equivalent to 4(6 + 8)?
hoa [83]

Answer:

You would have to add the expression so we know what you're talking about.

Any multiple of those numbers is equivalent though.

A researcher wishes to be 95% confident that her estimate of the true proportion of individuals who travel overseas is within 3%
andre [41]

Answer:  a) 683   b) 1067

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

a) Given : Significance level :\alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}}=\pm1.96

Margin of error : E=0.03

Formula to calculate the sample size needed for interval estimate of population proportion :-

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2\\\\=0.2(0.8)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2=682.951111111\approx683

Hence, the required sample size would be 683 .

b) If no estimate of the sample proportion is available then the formula to calculate sample size will be :-

n=0.25(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2\\\\=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.03})^2=1067.11111111\approx1067

Hence, the required sample size would be 1067 .

Jane took a train traveling at an average speed of 60 mph from Boston, MA to Washington, D.C. The trip took 8 hours. On her way
Trava [24]

Answer:

6.4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question gave us the following details:

Average speed = 60mph

Time spent on trip = 8 hours

Average speed of express train on way back = 75mph

T = distance/speed

D = distance

V = speed

T = d/v

d = v(t)

d = 60 x 8

= 480

Such that

480/75

= 6.4 hours.

That is 6 hours 40 minutes is the length of time it would take on the trip home.

Thank you!
