What is the simplified form of 2/x^2-x - 1/x?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: $\bold{(C)\ \dfrac{3 - x}{x(x-1)}}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$\dfrac{2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x}$

$=\dfrac{2}{x(x-1)}+\dfrac{-1}{x}$

$=\dfrac{2}{x(x-1)}+\dfrac{-1}{x}\bigg(\dfrac{x-1}{x-1}\bigg)$

$=\dfrac{2}{x(x-1)}+\dfrac{-x+1}{x(x-1)}$

$=\dfrac{2-x+1}{x(x-1)}$

$=\dfrac{3-x}{x(x-1)}$

The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15. The shape of the population is unknown. Determine the probabili

Lena [83]

Answer:

a) 0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.

b) 0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.

c) 0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15.

This means that $\mu = 74, \sigma = 15$

Question a:

Sample of 36 means that $n = 36, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{36}} = 2.5$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 78. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{78 - 74}{2.5}$

$Z = 1.6$

$Z = 1.6$ has a pvalue of 0.9452

1 - 0.9452 = 0.0548

0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.

Question b:

Sample of 150 means that $n = 150, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{150}} = 1.2247$

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 77 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 71. So

X = 77

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{77 - 74}{1.2274}$

$Z = 2.45$

$Z = 2.45$ has a pvalue of 0.9929

X = 71

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{71 - 74}{1.2274}$

$Z = -2.45$

$Z = -2.45$ has a pvalue of 0.0071

0.9929 - 0.0071 = 0.9858

0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.

c. A random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

Sample size of 219 means that $n = 219, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{219}} = 1.0136$

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 74.2. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{74.2 - 74}{1.0136}$

$Z = 0.2$

$Z = 0.2$ has a pvalue of 0.5793

0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.
