let the 2 integers be x and x + 2.

so we have the equation:-

3(x + 2) = x - 10

3x + 6 = x - 10

2x = -16

x = -8

the integers are -8 and -6 answer

One researcher wishes to estimate the mean number of hours that high school students spend watching tv on a weekday. a margin of

PtichkaEL [24]

Margin of error, e = Z*SD/Sqrt (N), where N = Sample population

Assuming a 95% confidence interval and substituting all the values;
At 95% confidence, Z = 1.96

Therefore,
0.23 = 1.96*1.9/Sqrt (N)

Sqrt (N) = 1.96*1.9/0.23

N = (1.96*1.9/0.23)^2 = 262.16 ≈ 263

Minimum sample size required is 263 students.

Please help me on #37. I know for A you would use the quadratic equation but I got the wrong answer.

ozzi

Δ = (8i)^2 - 4*(-25) => Δ = -36 +100 => Δ = 64 => x1 =(-8i + 8)/2 => x1 = -4i +4;
x2 = (-8i - 8)/2 => x2 = -4i-4; in this case, your solutions are complex conjugates.
