Answer:

y = 5x^2-5x-30

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola with x-intercepts at (-2,0) and (3,0) has the equation

y = a(x+2)(x-3)

where a is to be determined.

We know that it passes through the point (0,-30), so

-30 = a(0+2)(0-3) = -6a

Therefore solve for a to get

a = 5

y = 5(x+2)(x-3)

y = 5(x^2-x+6)

y = 5x^2-5x-30

Statistics question; please help.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Does this sample provide convincing evidence that the machine is working properly?

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Normal distribution test:</u>

$z=\frac{x- \mu }{ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }=\frac{ (x-\mu)\sqrt{n}}{\sigma}$

Where,

$x: \text{ sample mean}$

$\sigma: \text{ standard deviation}$

$n: \text{ sample size determination}$

$\mu: \text{ hypothesized size of the screw}$

$z=\frac{(1.476-1.5)\sqrt{200} }{0.203 }$

$z=\frac{(-0.024)10\sqrt{2} }{0.203 }$

$z \approx -1.672$

Once the significance level was not given, It is usually taken an assumption of a 5% significance level.

Taking the significance level of 5%, which means a confidence level of 95%, we have a z-value of $\pm 1.96$

Therefore, we <u>fail to reject the null</u>. It means that the hypothesis test is not statistically significant: the average length is not different from 1.5!

If your asking for the wrong absolute value of it it’s -8 but if you want the right one it’s 8 but I think the answer to your question is -8.

How many solutions are there to the equation below 6×+30+4×=10(×+3)

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Infinite many solutions. Any x-value can satisfy the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's work on simplifying the equation a little to investigate which x-values satisfy it. Start by combining like terms on the left side (6x +4x=10x),

then distribute the factor "10" into the binomial (x+10), obtaining 10x +30.

Now we have the same expression on the left and the right of the equal sign:

10x +30=10x+30. We may subtract 30 from both sides, and obtain 10x=10x, and at this point divide by 10 both sides, and we obtain: x=x

The process is shown below.

$6x+30+4x=10(x+3)\\6x+4x+30=10x+30\\10x+30=10x+30\\10x=10x\\x=x$

x=x is an equation that is verified by absolutely ANY x value on the number line, and there are infinite x-values in the number line.

Therefore there are infinite many solutions to this equation (any x-value will satisfy it).
