p2-5p-24=0

Two solutions were found :

p = 8

p = -3

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "p2" was replaced by "p^2".

Step by step solution :

Step 1 :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

1.1 Factoring p2-5p-24

The first term is, p2 its coefficient is 1 .

The middle term is, -5p its coefficient is -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is -24

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -24 = -24

Step-2 : Find two factors of -24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .

-24 + 1 = -23

-12 + 2 = -10

-8 + 3 = -5 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -8 and 3

p2 - 8p + 3p - 24

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

p • (p-8)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

3 • (p-8)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(p+3) • (p-8)

Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step 1 :

(p + 3) • (p - 8) = 0

Step 2 :

Theory - Roots of a product :

2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2 Solve : p+3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation :

p = -3

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.3 Solve : p-8 = 0

Add 8 to both sides of the equation :

p = 8

Please help me! in need of help due tomorrow!

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1). A = π r²

A = 4 π

Area of shaded region is $\frac{4\pi *260}{360}$ = $\frac{26}{9} \pi$ or $\frac{26\pi }{9}$

(2). C = 4 π

In this case, the length of the bigger arc and the area of shaded region happen to be the same.

The length of the arc ADB is $\frac{26}{9} \pi$ or $\frac{26\pi }{9}$

What is the solution of x=2+ square root x-2?

alex41 [277]

So I'm going to assume that this question is asking for <u>non extraneous solutions</u>, or solutions that are found in the equation <em>and</em> are valid solutions when plugged back into the equation. So firstly, subtract 2 on both sides of the equation:

$x-2=\sqrt{x-2}$

Next, square both sides:

$(x-2)^2=x-2\\(x-2)(x-2)=x-2\\x^2-4x+4=x-2$

Next, subtract x and add 2 to both sides of the equation:

$x^2-5x+6=0$

Now we are going to be factoring by grouping to find the solution(s). Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6x^2 and a sum of -5x? That would be -3x and -2x. Replace -5x with -2x - 3x:

$x^2-2x-3x+6=0$

Next, factor x^2 - 2x and -3x + 6 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:

$x(x-2)-3(x-2)=0$

Now you can rewrite the equation as $(x-3)(x-2)=0$

Now, apply the Zero Product Property and solve for x as such:

$x-3=0\\x=3\\\\x-2=0\\x=2$

Now, it may appear that the answer is C, however we need to plug the numbers back into the original equation to see if they are true as such:

$2=2+\sqrt{2-2}\\2=2+\sqrt{0}\\2=2+0\\2=2\ \textsf{true}\\\\3=2+\sqrt{3-2}\\3=2+\sqrt{1}\\3=2+1\\3=3\ \textsf{true}$

Since both solutions hold true when x = 2 and x = 3, <u>your answer is C. x = 2 or x = 3.</u>

fluorescent light factory that manufactures fluorescent lights that have a lifetime that is approximately normally distributed w

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The p-value obtained is greater than the significance level at which the test was performed, hence, we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean life of the fluorescent lights is 700 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

fluorescent light factory that manufactures fluorescent lights that have a lifetime that is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 700 hours and a standard deviation of 45 hours. Test the hypothesis that mean is 700 hours against the alternative hypothesis that the mean is not equal to 700 hours, if a random sample of 30 bulbs has an average life of 688 hours. Use a P-value in your answer.

Solution

For hypothesis testing, the first thing to define is the null and alternative hypothesis.

The null hypothesis plays the devil's advocate and usually takes the form of the opposite of the theory to be tested. It usually contains the signs =, ≤ and ≥ depending on the directions of the test.

While, the alternative hypothesis usually confirms the the theory being tested by the experimental setup. It usually contains the signs ≠, < and > depending on the directions of the test.

For this question, the null hypothesis is that the mean life of the fluorescent lights is 700 hours.

The alternative hypothesis will now be that the mean life of the fluorescent lights is significantly different from 700 hours.

Mathematically,

The null hypothesis is represented as

H₀: μ = 700

The alternative hypothesis is represented as

Hₐ: μ ≠ 700

To do this test, we will use the z-distribution because no information on the population standard deviation is known

So, we compute the z-test statistic

z = (x - μ₀)/σₓ

x = sample mean = 688 hours

μ₀ = 700 hours

σₓ = standard error = (σ/√n)

σ = standard deviation = 45 hours

n = Sample size = 30

σₓ = (45/√30) = 8.2158383626 = 8.216

z = (688 - 700) ÷ 8.216

z = 1.46

checking the tables for the p-value of this z-statistic

Significance level = 0.05 (This is used when significance level isn't given)

The hypothesis test uses a two-tailed condition because we're testing in two directions.

p-value (for z = 1.46, at 0.05 significance level, with a two tailed condition) = 0.14429

The interpretation of p-values is that

When the (p-value > significance level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and when the (p-value < significance level), we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, for this question, significance level = 0.05

p-value = 0.14429

0.14429 > 0.05

Hence,

p-value > significance level

This means that we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean life of the fluorescent lights is 700 hours.

Hope this Helps!!
