The solution to this inequality is 4 < x or x > 4.

In order to solve this, follow the steps to solving an equation with one variable. The steps are below for you.

2x + 8 < 5x - 4 ------> Subtract 2x from both sides

8 < 3x - 4 -----> Add 4 to both sides

12 < 3x -----> Divide both sides by 3

4 < x

7.43: Let X denote the random variable for height and \overline X for the sample mean. Then if \mu is the mean of

So the probability that the difference between the sample and population means does not exceed 0.5 inch is

P(|\overline X-\mu|\le0.5) = P\left(\left|\dfrac{\overline X-\mu}{0.25}\right|\le\dfrac{0.5}{0.25}\right) = P(|Z|\le 2) \approx \boxed{0.95}

per the empirical or 68/95/99.7 rule.

7.44: For a sample of size <em>n</em>, the sample standard deviation would be \frac{2.5}{\sqrt n}. We want to find <em>n</em> such that

P(|\overline X-\mu| < 0.4) = 0.95

Comparing to the equation from the previous part, this means we would need

\dfrac{0.4}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{n}}} = 0.16\sqrt n = 2 \implies \sqrt n = 12.5 \implies n = 156.25

so a sample of at least 157 men would be sufficient.

What are the real and complex solutions of the polynomial equation? x^3-8=0. with imaginary numbers
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Solutions are 2,  -1 +  0.5 sqrt10 i  and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i

or 2,  -1 +  1.58 i  and -1 - 1.58i

(where the last 2 are equal to nearest hundredth).


Step-by-step explanation:

The real solution is x = 2:-

x^3 - 8 = 0

x^3 = 8

x = cube root of 8 = 2

Note that a cubic equation must have  a total of 3 roots ( real and complex in this case).  We can find the 2 complex roots by using the following identity:-

a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2).

Here  a = x and b = 2 so we have

(x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4) = 0

To find the complex roots we solve x^2 + 2x + 4 = 0:-

Using the quadratic formula x = [-2 +/- sqrt(2^2 - 4*1*4)] / 2

= -1 +/- (sqrt( -10)) / 2

= -1 +  0.5 sqrt10 i  and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
