Answer:
The square root function
sqrt(144) or √144 produces a single positive value, 12.
However if you have an equation
x² = 144, then you have two possible values for x, 12 and -12.
Two ways to look at it.
x² - 144 = 0
Difference of two squares
(x+12)(x-12) = 0
x = -12, 12
x² = 144
x = ±√144
x = ±12
x = -12, 12
Answer:
Any value except -3.44 will make the equation equal to 28.1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told to multiply the quotient of the fraction by 28.1 to make 28.1. So, it is obvious that the fraction has to simplified to a one. This is possible with any number as whatever the value of x, the numerator and denominator will be equal. But, in the case of -3.44, it will make 5e fraction 0/0, which is undefined and never equal to 1.

Answer:
C) The area of the landscape model is A = 40 sq ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original dimensions of the rectangular patio model is
Length = L
Width = W
Area of the patio model = LENGTH x WIDTH = L x W
⇒ A = L W ............. (1)
Now, the new area A" is enlarged by a factor of 2
⇒ The new Length = L" = (2 L)
The new Width = W" = (2 W)
So, AREA" = L" x W" = (2 L) x (2 W) = 4 (L W)
⇒ A " = 4 (L W)
But, L W = A .. from (1)
⇒ A" = 4 A
But, the area of the new enlarged patio is 160 square feet.
⇒ 160 sq ft = 4 x A
or, A = 160 / 4 =40 sq ft
⇒ A = 40 sq ft.
Hence, the area of the landscape model is A = 40 sq ft.
Answer:
There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim.
Step-by-step explanation:
The claim to be tested is:
The mean respiration rate (in breaths per minute) of students in a large statistics class is less than 32.
To test this claim the hypothesis can be defined as follows:
<em>H₀</em>: The mean respiration rate of students is 32, i.e. <em>μ</em> = 32.
<em>Hₐ</em>: The mean respiration rate of students is less than 32, i.e. <em>μ</em> < 32.
The sample mean respiration rate of students is 31.3.
According to the claim the sample mean is less than 32.
The sample mean value is not unusual if the claim is true, and the sample mean value is also not unusual if the claim is false.
Thus, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim.
