2/3 are roses
1/4 of the 2/3 are red

1/4 * 2/3 = 2/12 = 1/6

One-fourth of two-thirds is one-sixth.
Now we need to change 1/6 into a percent.

1 is to 6 as x is to 100.

1/6 = x/100

6x = 1 * 100

6x = 100

x = 100/6

x = 16 2/3

Answer: 16 2/3%

Use the completing the square method to find the roots of 2x^2+3x-15=13 include the steps, it would be greatly appreciated thank
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The roots are

x1= \frac{-3+\sqrt{233}}{4}

x2= \frac{-3-\sqrt{233}}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

2x^{2}+3x-15=13

so

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

2x^{2}+3x=13+15

2x^{2}+3x=28

Factor the leading coefficient  

2(x^{2}+(3/2)x)=28

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

2(x^{2}+(3/2)x+(9/16))=28+(9/8)

2(x^{2}+(3/2)x+(9/16))=233/8

(x^{2}+(3/2)x+(9/16))=233/16

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x+(3/4))^{2}=233/16

square root both sides

(x+\frac{3}{4})=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{233}{16}}\\ \\(x+\frac{3}{4})=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{233}}{4}\\ \\x= -\frac{3}{4}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{233}}{4}

x1= -\frac{3}{4}(+)\frac{\sqrt{233}}{4}=\frac{-3+\sqrt{233}}{4}

x2= -\frac{3}{4}(-)\frac{\sqrt{233}}{4}=\frac{-3-\sqrt{233}}{4}

Problem 6-27 A project manager is creating the design for a new engine. He judges that there will be a 50-50 chance that it will
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Probability = 0.275

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible ways for his design to be approved: Being a high-energy engine (H) and being approved or a low-energy energy (L) and being approved.

It is known that there is a 50-50 chance of the engine being high or low-energy.

The probability of approval for each type of engine (E) is given by:

P(E) = 0.5*A(E)

Where A(E) is the approval rate for each engine.

Therefore, the probabilities of approval for each type of engine are:

P(H) = 0.5*0.25\\P(H) =0.125\\P(L) = 0.5*0.30\\P(L) =0.150\\

The total probability of approval is the sum of both low and high-engine probabilities;

Probability = P(H)+P(L) =0.125+0.150\\Probability = 0.275

Criminal investigators use biometric matching for fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, and iris recognition. When matchi
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Type I error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's remember the definition of Type I error and Type II error:

A type I error is the rejection of a true null hypothesis, this means that we would get a "false positive" with this error.

A type II error is the non rejection of a not true null hypothesis, this error would give us a "false negative".

In this problem, we are told that the mean match score to identify a suspect is 80. However, the test shows that the mean match score is more than 80 when the person doesn't have a fingerprint match (and therefore the person would not be a suspect). Therefore, this person would appear as a suspect when he/she really isn't one. This means that the test is giving a "false positive". Thus, this is a type I error.
