Simplify the expression by combining like terms if possible. If not possible select already simplified. 4a^2+2a+4a^2-5

vichka [17]

So the expression is: $4 a^{2} + 2a + 4 a^{2} - 5$

You can combine like terms, which are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power. That means you can combine the two $4 a^{2}$ . $4 a^{2} + 4 a^{2} = 8 a^{2}$ The other terms can't be combined.

Your final answer should be $8 a^{2} +2a-5$ .

A home business has an average income of $900.00 per month with a standard deviation of $15.00. If the income in a given month i

Llana [10]

Answer = 2.00

Z score is a statistical that corresponds to the standardization of the regular score to a normal distribution

The formula for Z score is Z = [X - mean ]./ (standard deviation)

Here X = 930.00; mean = 900.00; and standard deviation = 15.00

Then, Z = [930.00 - 900.00] / 15.00 = 30.00 / 15.00 = 2.00

Therefore, your answer is 2.00

Hope I helped :)

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.

Step 1: factorise the denominator

$x^2 - 5x + 4$

$x^2 - 4x - x + 4$

$(x^2 - 4x) - (x + 4)$

$x(x - 4) - 1(x - 4)$

$(x- 1)(x - 4)$

Thus, we now have: $\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$

Step 2: Apply the concept of Partial Fraction

Let,

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$ = $\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

Multiply both sides by (x - 1)(x - 4)

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} * (x - 1)(x - 4)$ = $(\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}) * (x - 1)(x - 4)$

$2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

Step 3:

Substituting x = 4 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(4) + 3 = A(4 - 4) + B(4 - 1)$

$8 + 3 = A(0) + B(3)$

$11 = 3B$

$\frac{11}{3} = B$

$B = \frac{11}{3}$

Substituting x = 1 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(1) + 3 = A(1 - 4) + B(1 - 1)$

$2 + 3 = A(-3) + B(0)$

$5 = -3A$

$\frac{5}{-3} = \frac{-3A}{-3}$

$A = -\frac{5}{3}$

Step 4: Plug in the values of A and B into the original equation in step 2

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

An article includes the accompanying data on compression strength (lb) for a sample of 12-oz aluminum cans filled with strawberr

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a test of 2 independent groups. The population standard deviations are not known. Let μ1 be the mean compression strength from the extra carbonation of strawberry drink and μ2 be the mean compression strength from the extra carbonation of cola.

The random variable is μ1 - μ2 = difference in the mean compression strength from the extra carbonation of strawberry drink and the mean compression strength from the extra carbonation of cola.

We would set up the hypothesis.

The null hypothesis is

H0 : μ1 = μ2 H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

The alternative hypothesis is

H1 : μ1 < μ2 H1 : μ1 - μ2 < 0

This is a left tailed test.

Since sample standard deviation is known, we would determine the test statistic by using the t test. The formula is

(x1 - x2)/√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

From the information given,

x1 = 530

x2 = 553

s1 = 23

s2 = 16

n1 = 10

n2 = 10

t = (530 - 533)/√(23²/10 + 16²/10)

t = - 2.6

The formula for determining the degree of freedom is

df = [s1²/n1 + s2²/n2]²/(1/n1 - 1)(s1²/n1)² + (1/n2 - 1)(s2²/n2)²

df = [23²/10 + 16²/10]²/[(1/10 - 1)(23²/10)² + (1/10 - 1)(16²/10)²] = 6162.25/383.752

df = 16

We would determine the probability value from the t test calculator. It becomes

p value = 0.0097

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.0097, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at 5% significance level, the data suggests that the extra carbonation of cola results in a higher average compression strength.
