The Simplest form is \frac{1}{2}


\frac{1}{4} +4(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{4})^{2}   PEMDAS

\frac{1}{4}+4(-\frac{1}{4})^{2}                       Subtract inside parenthesis \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{4} =- \frac{1}{4}

\frac{1}{4}+4( \frac{1}{16})                            Square - \frac{1}{4}                       

\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}                                 Multiply 4 and \frac{1}{16}                        

\frac{1}{2}                                                       Add \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}

A report on consumer financial literacy summarized data from a representative sample of 1,663 adult Americans. Based on data fro
Tom [10]

Answer:

a) 95% Confidence interval = (0.536, 0.584)

This means that we are 95% confident that between 53.6% and 58.4% of Americans would give themselves grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance.

b) The result of the 95% confidence interval agrees with the claim that majority of Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance because the interval obtained for possible values that the population proportion of Americans that would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance lies completely on the side that is greater than a proportion of 0.50 which indicates that truly, majority of Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = proportion of Americans in the sample that would give themselves grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance = p = (934/1663) = 0.56

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 95% confidence interval for sample size of 1663 is obtained from the z-tables as the sample size is large enough for the sample properties to approximate the population properties.

Critical value = 1.960 (from the z-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = 0.56

n = sample size = 1663

σₓ = √[0.56×0.44/1663] = 0.0121723457 = 0.01217

95% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.56 ± (1.96 × 0.01217)

CI = 0.56 ± 0.0238532

95% CI = (0.5361468, 0.5838532)

95% Confidence interval = (0.536, 0.584)

b) The result of the 95% confidence interval agrees with the claim that majority of Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance because the interval obtained for possible values that the population proportion of Americans that would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance lies completely on the side that is greater than a proportion of 0.50 which indicates that truly, majority of Americans would give themselves a grade of A or B on their financial knowledge of personal finance.

What is the product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3?
Radda [10]

Answer:

The product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3 is 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the two expressions can be expressed mathematically as;

(2x +y) (5x -y +3)

To obtain the product of these expressions, we simply expand the brackets as follows;

2x(5x -y +3) + y(5x -y +3)

= 10x^2 - 2xy + 6x + 5xy - y^2 + 3y

= 10x^2- 2xy + 5xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

= 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

The product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3 is thus 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

At most, how many unique roots will a third-degree polynomial function have?
beks73 [17]

The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.

In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.

So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.

In fact, in general, if the polynomial p(x) has solutions x_1,\ x_2,\ldots x_n, then you can factor it as

p(x) = (x-x_1)(x-x_2)\ldots (x-x_n)

So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as

p(x)=(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)

But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
