The pair of points that are equal to x coordinates is (0,0)
The answer would be 1/3 right?
<span>x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 105.25
"Completing the square" is one of many different techniques for solving a quadratic equation. What you do is add a constant to both sides of the equation such that the lefthand side can be factored into the form a(x+d)^2. For instance, squaring (X+D) = X^2 + 2DX + D^2. Notice the 2DX term. That is the same term as the 15x term in the problem. So 2D = 15, D = 7.5. And D^2 = 7.5^2 = 56.25.
So we have
x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 49 + 56.25
Which is
x^2 + 15x + 56.25 = 105.25
Which is the answer desired.
Now the rest of this is going beyond the answer. Namely, it's answering the question "Why does complementing the square help?"
Well, we know that the left hand side of the equation can now be written as
(x+7.5)^2 = 105.25
Now take the square root of each side
(x+7.5) = sqrt(105.25)
And let's use both the positive and negative square roots.
So
x+7.5 = 10.25914226
and
x+7.5 = -10.25914226
And let's find X.
x+7.5 = 10.25914226
x = 2.759142264
x+7.5 = -10.25914226
x = -17.75914226
So the roots for x^2 + 15x - 49 is 2.759142264, and -17.75914226</span>
Answer:
a) H0 : u = 28.5%
H1 : u < 28.5%
b) critical value = - 1.645
c) test statistic Z= - 1.41
d) Fail to reject H0
e) There is not enough evidence to support the professor's claim.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P = 28.5% ≈ 0.285
X = 210
n = 800
Level of significance = 0.05
a) The null and alternative hypotheses are:
H0 : u = 28.5%
H1 : u < 28.5%
b) Given a 0.05 significance level.
This is a left tailed test.
The critical value =
The critical value = -1.645
c) Calculating the test statistic, we have:
Z = -1.41
d) Decision:
We fail to reject null hypothesis H0, since Z = -1.41 is not in the rejection region, <1.645
e) There is not enough evidence to support the professor's claim that the proportion of obese male teenagers decreased.
