Both A and C would be solutions to the equation.

In order to solve for this you must first get the equation equal to 0. 

2x^2+5x+8=6 ----> subtract 6 from both sides
2x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0

Now knowing this we can use the coefficients of each one in descending order of power as a, b and c. 

a = 2 (because it is the coefficient to x^2)
b = 5 (because it is the coefficient to x)
c = 2 (because it is the end number)

Now we can plug these values into the quadratic equation. 

\frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}

\frac{-5 +/- \sqrt{5^{2} - 4(2)(2) } }{2(2)}

\frac{-5 +/- \sqrt{9} }{4}

\frac{-5 +/- 3 }{4}

\frac{-5 + 3 }{4} or -1/2 for the first answer

\frac{-5 - 3 }{4} or -2 for the second answer

Rodger gets $40 per day as wages and $4.50 as commission for ever paid of shoes he sells in a day. His daily earning goal is $11
Charra [1.4K]

112 = 40 + 4.50p

Subtract 40 from both sides

72 = 4.50p

Divide both sides by 4.50

16 = s

40 + 4.50*16 = 112

40 + 72 = 112

He would need to sell 16 pairs of shoes to meet his goal.

Answer:

Estimate of population 0.61

(b) Margin of error = 0.07 The real population interval estimation is ± 7%.

c). Margin of error = 0.15

d) The real population's interval estimation is ± 15%

e). Yes, the action argument of the group is based on a half-range estimation of the true population. The reason that 62% ± 15% = 47%, or 77%, while 47% is similar to 45%, as the Collective action group states.
