Answer:

x = -2, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Isolate everything to 1 side

2x² + 3x - 2 = 0

Step 2: Factor

(2x - 1)(x + 2) = 0

Step 3: Find roots

2x - 1 = 0

2x = 1

x = 1/2

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

A consumer group is interested in estimating the proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an a

storchak [24]

Answer: 267.

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is no prior information for the population proportion, then the formula we use to find the sample size to estimate the confidence interval :

$n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$ , where z* = Critical z-value and E + amrgin of error.

Let p = proportion of packages of ground beef sold at a particular store that have an actual fat content exceeding the fat content stated on the label.

Since , we have no prior information about p. so we use above formula

with E = 0.06 and critical value for 95% confidence =z* =1.96 [By z-table ] , we get

$n=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.06})^2=0.25(32.6666)^2\\\\=(0.25)(1067.111111)\\\\=266.777777778\approx267$

Hence, the required sample size is 267.

How can you tell if a equation is extraneous

geniusboy [140]

Do you mean an extraneous solution? I will tell you what I think. To tell if a solution is extraneous you need to go back to the original problem and check if there actually is a solution or if the solution is actually right. If not then it is extraneous.

O is the centroid. Find the value of x. (Sorry if u cant see the photo :/, but this is Geometry btw)

klemol [59]

Answer: x = 6

==============================================

Explanation:

The medians of a triangle meet up at the centroid in such a way that they cut each other at a ratio of 2:1, meaning that one part of the median is twice as long as the other. In this case, MO is two times longer than OP, so,

OP = 2*MO

and

MP = MO + OP

MP = MO + 2*MO .... replace OP with 2*MO

MP = 3*MO

9x-24 = 3*(x+4) ... plug in the given expressions

9x-24 = 3x+12

9x-3x = 12+24

6x = 36

x = 36/6

x = 6

Find cos(2*ABC) 100POINTS

juin [17]

Answer:

$-\dfrac{7}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Identities</u>

$\cos(A \pm B)=\cos A \cos B \mp \sin A \sin B$

<u>Trigonometric ratios</u>

$\sf \sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\quad\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\quad\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where:

$\theta$ is the angle
O is the side opposite the angle
A is the side adjacent the angle
H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

Using the trig ratio formulas for cosine and sine:

$\cos(\angle ABC)=\dfrac{3}{5}$

$\sin(\angle ABC)=\dfrac{4}{5}$

Therefore, using the trig identities and ratios:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \cos(2 \cdot \angle ABC) & = \cos(\angle ABC + \angle ABC)\\\\& = \cos (\angle ABC) \cos (\angle ABC) - \sin(\angle ABC) \sin (\angle ABC)\\\\& = \cos^2(\angle ABC)-\sin^2(\angle ABC)\\\\& = \left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^2-\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^2\\\\& = \dfrac{3^2}{5^2}-\dfrac{4^2}{5^2}\\\\& = \dfrac{9}{25}-\dfrac{16}{25}\\\\& = \dfrac{9-16}{25}\\\\& = -\dfrac{7}{25} \end{aligned}$
