A federal report finds that lie detector tests given to truthful persons have probability about 0.2 of suggesting that the perso

n is deceptive. A company asks 12 job applicants about thefts from previous employers, using a lie detector to assess their truthfulness. Suppose that all 12 answer truthfully. Let X = the number of people who the lie detector says are being deceptive. Find and interpret μx.

A circle has centre (3,0) and radius 5. The line y = 2x + k intersects the circle in two points. Find the set
lara [203]

A circle with center (3,0) and radius 5 has equation

(x-3)^2+y^2=25 \iff x^2 + y^2- 6 x  = 16

If we substitute y=2x+k in this equation, we have

x^2+(2x+k)^2-6x=16 \iff 5x^2+(4k-6)x+k^2-16=0

This equation has two solutions (i.e. the line intersects the circle in two points) if and only if the determinant is greater than zero:

\Delta=b^2-4ac=(4k-6)^2-4\cdot 5\cdot (k^2-16)>0

The expression simplifies to

-4 (k^2 + 12 k - 89)>0 \iff k^2 + 12 k - 89

The solutions to the associated equation are

k^2 + 12 k - 89=0 \iff k=-6\pm 5\sqrt{5}

So, the parabola is negative between the two solutions:

-6-5\sqrt{5}

Is it true 4 and -4 have a sum of 0
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Yes, 4 + -4 = 0.

Think of it like a number line: The number four is 4 units to the right of the center which is 0, and the number negative four is 4 units to the left of the center. When you add them together, those distances cancel out, and you just get 0.
