Answer:
x = - 5 , x =
Step-by-step explanation:
the values of x that make f(x) zero are the zeros
to find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is
3x² + 13x - 10 = 0
consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 3 × - 10 = - 30 and sum = + 13
the factors are + 15 and - 2
use these factors to split the x- term
3x² + 15x - 2x - 10 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3x(x + 5) - 2(x + 5) = 0 ← factor out (x + 5) from each term
(x + 5)(3x - 2) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x =
Answer:
The margin of error for this estimate is of 14.79 yards per game.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
T interval
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 20 - 1 = 19
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of . So we have T = 2.093
The margin of error is:
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
You randomly select 20 games and see that the average yards per game is 273.7 with a standard deviation of 31.64 yards.
This means that
What is the margin of error for this estimate?
The margin of error for this estimate is of 14.79 yards per game.
