Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

k = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x  - sqrt(k) )^2              Expand this as a binomial                          

4x^2 - 4x*sqrt(k) + k      The middle term must be -20x Solve for k so it is

-4xsqrt(k) = - 20x            Divide by -4x

sqrt(k) = -20x/-4x             Do the division

sqrt(k) = 5                         Square both sides

k = 25

Rewrite in a form that does not use exponents
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

  \boxed{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the rules of logarithms is ...

  log(a^b) = b·log(a)

So ...

6\log_5{x^3}=6(3\log_5{x})=\bf{18}\log_5{x}

An object has a mass of 225 g and a volume of 15 cm3.<br> Find the density of the object in g/cm3
ioda

Answer:

D=m/v

=225g/15cm^3

=15g/cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating density is: density=mass/volume.

after collecting data you will see that all the data is already in the question and there's no need to convert any units. Divide the mass by the volume and you'll have the density in g/cm^3

Using the z table, find the critical value for a=0.024 in a left tailed test
natita [175]

Answer:

Critical value is -1.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The value of alpha is, \alpha=0.024

Now, in order to find the critical value, we need to subtract alpha from 1 and then look at the z-score table to find the respective 'z' value for the above result.

The probability of critical value is given as:

P(critical)=1-\alpha=1-0.024=0.976

So, from the z-score table, the value of z-score for probability 0.976 is 1.98.

Now, in a left tailed test, we multiply the z value by negative 1 to arrive at the final answer. We do so because the area to the left of mean in a normal distribution curve is negative.

So, the z-score for critical value 0.024 in a left tailed test is -1.98.
