Difference of squares: What is x^2-9=0? please help me....​

Mathematics

Answer:

3 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to factor it to be able to find the solution.

x^2-9=0

(x+3)(x-3)=0  You now need to find 'each' zero, because if one parenthesis equals 0, then you are multiplying the rest of the equation by 0 which will equal 0.

x+3=0  Subtract three

x= -3    

x-3=0  Add three

x= 3

x^2-9 will equal 0 when x is either +3 or -3

Answer:

x=3  x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-9=0

We know this is the difference of squares

a^2 - b^2 = (a-b) (a+b)

(x-3)(x+3) =0

Using the zero product property

x-3 =0  x+3 =0

x=3  x=-3

What is the value of z in the equation 2(4z – 9 – 11) = 166 – 46?
Roman55 [17]
2(4z-9-11)=166-46
8z-18-22=120
8z-40=120
Add 40 from both side
8z-40+40=120+40
8z=160
Divided 8 from both side
8z/8=160/8
z=20. Hope it help!

The National Center for Educational Statistics surveyed 5400 college graduates about the lengths of time required to earn their
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time required by all college graduates is between 5.36 years and 5.44 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{4500}} = 0.04

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.4 - 0.04 = 5.36 years.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.4 + 0.04 = 5.44 years.

The 90% confidence interval for the mean time required by all college graduates is between 5.36 years and 5.44 years.
