We are given :
Step 1: factor the part inside square root
The function given inside square root is of quadratic form.
So let us try to factorise it using AC method.
Here A*C = 4*25 = 100
so we have to find factors of 100 that add up to give -20.
the two factors are -10 and -10.
Rewriting the function :
=
=
=
Step 2:
Now we take square root of the factorised form
= 
Answer : (2x-5)
It was about 17.4%
======================================================================
% error=
actual value-estimated value
Then divide that by actual value
Answer:
c) at most 11.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the data that is 97 ± 12, with 97 being the mean and 12 the standard deviation.
Now, the percentage of people who reached them for less than 73 dollars, if it were a normal distribution:
z = (73 - 97) / 12 = - 2
so it would be, a probability of 0.0228 or 0.228%.
But we don't know what distribution it has, but we can get an idea.
A and D discarded, as they are very high values, and 73 is well below the average.
B) is still a very high value.
Therefore the answer is C, at most 11.1%
next three are n+2, n+4, and n+6
four consecutive odd have sum 56
n + n+2 + n+4 + n+6 = 56
4n + 12 = 56
4n = 44
n = 11
the numbers are 11, 13, 15, and 17
