Solve x2 + 1/2x +1/16=4/9

Mathematics
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u>

x = 0.417 or x = -0.917

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following expression and we are to solve it for the variable x:

x ^2 + \frac { 1 } { 2 } x + \frac { 1 } { 1 6 } = \frac { 4 } { 9 }

We will find the least common multiple of 2. 6 and 9:

x^2 \times 144 +\frac{1}{2}x \times 144 +\frac{1}{16} \times 144 = \frac{4}{9} \times 144

Simplifying it to get:

144x^2+72x+9=64

144x^2+72x+9-64=0

144x^2+72x-55=0

Using the quadratic formula to solve for x:

x=\frac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

x=\frac{-72 \pm\sqrt{72^2-4(144)(-55)} }{2a}

x=\frac{5}{12} or 0.417

x=-\frac{11}{12} or -0.917

Suppose I make several time measurements, and compute an average time of 3.4 s, with a standard deviation of 0.8 s and an SDOM o
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The result will be smaller than 2.6s, 16% of the time.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - xbar)/σ

x = the random value = 2.6 s

xbar = mean = the average = 3.4 s

σ = standard deviation = 0.8 s

z = (2.6 - 3.4)/0.8 = - 1

P(x < 2.6) = P(z < - 1) = 1 - P(z ≥ - 1) = 1 - P(z ≤ 1) = 1 - 0.841 = 0.159 = 16%
