Answer:

(x-4)^{2}-11

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 8x + 5 = x² - 8x + (16 - 16) + 5      {we just added 16 and subtractEd it }

                 = (x - 4)² - 16 + 5               {<u><em>Reason </em></u>:  x² - 8x + 16 = (x - 4)² }

                 = (x - 4)² - 11

Answer:

(x - 4)² - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 8x + 5

To obtain the required form use the method of completing the square.

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 8x

= x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 - 16 + 5

= (x - 4)² - 11

Suppose 12% of students are veterans. From a sample of 263 students, how unusual would it be to have less than 22 veterans?
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Yes, both np and n(1-p) are ≥ 10

Mean = 0.12 ; Standard deviation = 0.02004

Yes. There is a less than 5% chance of this happening by random variation. 0.034839

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

p = 12% = 0.12 ;

Sample size, n = 263

np = 263 * 0.12 = 31.56

n(1 - p) = 263(1 - 0.12) = 263 * 0.88 = 231.44

According to the central limit theorem, distribution of sample proportion approximately follow normal distribution with mean of p = 0.12 and standard deviation sqrt(p*(1 - p)/n) = sqrt (0.12 *0.88)/n = sqrt(0.0004015) = 0.02004

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

x = 22 / 263 = 0.08365

Z = (0.08365 - 0.12) / 0.02004

Z = −1.813872

Z = - 1.814

P(Z < −1.814) = 0.034839 (Z probability calculator)

Yes, it is unusual

0.034 < 0.05 (Hence, There is a less than 5% chance of this happening by random variation.
