Answer:
When we have a quadratic equation:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
There is something called the determinant, and this is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c
If D < 0, then the we will have complex solutions.
In our case, we have
5*x^2 - 10*x + c = 0
Then the determinant is:
D = (-10)^2 - 4*5*c = 100 - 4*5*c
And we want this to be smaller than zero, then let's find the value of c such that the determinant is exactly zero:
D = 0 = 100 - 4*5*c
4*5*c = 100
20*c = 100
c = 100/20 = 5
As c is multiplicating the negative term in the equation, if c increases, then we will have that D < 0.
This means that c must be larger than 5 if we want to have complex solutions,
c > 5.
I can not represent this in your number line, but this would be represented with a white dot in the five, that extends infinitely to the right, something like the image below:
Answer: No , at 0.05 level of significance , we have sufficient evidence to reject the claim that LTCC Intermediate Algebra students get less than seven hours of sleep per night, on average.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let denotes the average hours of sleep per night.
As per given , we have
, since is left-tailed and population standard deviation is unknown, so the test is a left-tailed t -test.
Also , it is given that ,
Sample size : n= 22
Sample mean :
Sample standard deviation : s= 1.93
Test statistic :
i.e.
For significance level and degree of freedom 21 (df=n-1),
Critical t-value for left-tailed test=
Decision : Since the test statistic value (0.58) > critical value 1.7207, it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis .
[Note : When , then we accept the null hypothesis.]
Conclusion: We have sufficient evidence to reject the claim that LTCC Intermediate Algebra students get less than seven hours of sleep per night, on average.
