<span>-2x^2 + 10x + 9 =0
multiply whole equation by -1
2x^2  -10x -9 =0

(sqrt2x)^2  -2(sqrt2x)(5/</span>sqrt2) -9=0
add (5/sqrt2)^2 on both sides
(sqrt2x)^2  -2(sqrt2x)(5/sqrt2) + (5/sqrt2)^2-9=(5/sqrt2)^2

a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2
(sqrt2x  -  5/sqrt2)^2=(5/sqrt2)^2+9

(sqrt2x  -  5/sqrt2)^2=21.5

taking squareroot on both sides

sqrt2x  -  5/sqrt2 = +-4.64
so
sqrt2x  -  5/sqrt2 = +4.64       or         sqrt2x  -  5/sqrt2 = -4.64
sqrt2x = 4.64 +  5/sqrt2                     sqrt2x = -4.64 +  5/sqrt2
sqrt2x =8.18                                         sqrt2x = -1.1045
x=8.18/sqrt2                                        x= -1.1045/sqrt2
x=5.78                                                 x=-0.781

What percent of 60 is 12? Show your work. Is this wrong or right. 60/100 = 0.6*12 7.2% or do i removes the .2 off the percentage
Troyanec [42]
You don't just go removing numbers here and there without a good reason. In any case, your whole approach here is wrong. You're calculating 60 percent of 12. But the question says to take 12 out of a group of 60 and tell what percent of the group you have. That's (12/60) x 100.

The results of a survey indicate that between 76% and 84% of the season ticket holders are satisfied with their seat locations.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

±4

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in a confidence interval is half the range:

(84 - 76) / 2 = 4

So the margin of error is ±4.
