EastWind [94]

Answer:

Well all even numbers between 0 and 8 are,

2, 4, 6, 8

Meaning if the button is pressed 4 times 2, 4, 6, or 8 will be outputted.

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 5 and -3, and whose leading coefficient is 1

kogti [31]

1. A quadratic equation has the following form: ax²+bx+c.

2. The leading coefficient is the number that is attached to the variable with the highest exponent. Then, the "a" is the leading coefficient of the quadratic equation.

3. The problem says that the leading coefficient is 1 (a=1) and the roots of the quadratic equation are 5 and -3. Then, you have:

(x-5)(x+3)=0

4. When you apply the distributive property, you obtain:

x²+3x-5x-15=0
x²-2x-15=0

5. Therefore, the answer is:

x²-2x-15=0

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Statistics reports that the average annual salary in the metropolitan Boston area is $50,542. Suppos

xenn [34]

Answer:

(a) P(X > $57,000) = 0.0643

(b) P(X < $46,000) = 0.1423

(c) P(X > $40,000) = 0.0066

(d) P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = 0.6959

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that U.S. Bureau of Economic Statistics reports that the average annual salary in the metropolitan Boston area is $50,542.

Suppose annual salaries in the metropolitan Boston area are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $4,246.

Let X = annual salaries in the metropolitan Boston area

SO, X ~ Normal( $\mu=$50,542,\sigma^{2} = $4,246^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = average annual salary in the Boston area = $50,542

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = $4,246

(a) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is more than $57,000 is given by = P(X > $57,000)

P(X > $57,000) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ > $\frac{57,000-50,542}{4,246 }$ ) = P(Z > 1.52) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.52)

= 1 - 0.93574 = 0.0643

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.52 in the z table which gave an area of 0.93574.

(b) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is less than $46,000 is given by = P(X < $46,000)

P(X < $46,000) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ < $\frac{46,000-50,542}{4,246 }$ ) = P(Z < -1.07) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.07)

= 1 - 0.85769 = 0.1423

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.07 in the z table which gave an area of 0.85769.

(c) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is more than $40,000 is given by = P(X > $40,000)

P(X > $40,000) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ > $\frac{40,000-50,542}{4,246 }$ ) = P(Z > -2.48) = P(Z < 2.48)

= 1 - 0.99343 = 0.0066

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.48 in the z table which gave an area of 0.99343.

(d) Probability that the worker’s annual salary is between $45,000 and $54,000 is given by = P($45,000 < X < $54,000)

P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = P(X < $54,000) - P(X $\leq$ $45,000)

P(X < $54,000) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ < $\frac{54,000-50,542}{4,246 }$ ) = P(Z < 0.81) = 0.79103

P(X $\leq$ $45,000) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma }$ $\leq$ $\frac{45,000-50,542}{4,246 }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -1.31) = 1 - P(Z < 1.31)

= 1 - 0.90490 = 0.0951

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.81 and x = 1.31 in the z table which gave an area of 0.79103 and 0.9049 respectively.

Therefore, P($45,000 < X < $54,000) = 0.79103 - 0.0951 = 0.6959
