Answer:x=-5 and x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x^2-15)=log(2x)

Cancel log at both sides we get

x^2-15=2x

Collect like terms

x^2-2x-15=0

x^2-3x+5x-15=0

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

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

x+5=0 x-3=0

x=-5 x=3

The radius of the circle whose equation is (x-3)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 16 is

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a circle with center (a, b) and radius r is given by the equation;

$(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}$

The constant in the right hand side of the equation is simply the square of the radius;

We have been given the following equation;

(x-3)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 16

Comparing this with the general equation above;

$r^{2}=16\\\\r=\sqrt{16}=4$

balandron [24]

Answer:

The first step is to determine the average

$x= \frac{0,6+0,7+ 0,7+0,3+0,4+ 0,5+ 0,4 +0,2}{8}\\\ x= 0,475$

The exercise says it’s a normal distribution: (n=8)

$s^{2}= \frac{1}{n-1} ((0,6.x)^2+2(0,7-x)^2+(0.3-x)^2+2(0.4-x)^2+(0.5-x)^2+(0.2-x)^2)\\\ \frac{1}{7}*0,235 = 0,0336 \\\\ s= 0183$

According to the exercise, the mean is equal to 0,5 then the value of t of the distribution can be obtained

$t= \frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }}\\\ t= \frac{0,475 - 0,5}{0,183}\\\ t= -0,3860$

The variable t has 7 grade to liberty, we calculate the p-value as:

$2* P(t < - 0,3860)= \\\ 2* 0,3554 = 0,7108$

This value is very high, therefore the hypothesis is not rejected
