Answer:

no real zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use b^2-4ac which is 25-16*29.

We know that is negative meaning there is no real zeros.

By the way, can you follow me on Brainly?

What is the value of sin-1(1)? negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction 0 startfraction pi over 2 endfraction π
mariarad [96]

The value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

<h3>What is the value of sin (π/2)?</h3>

The value of sin (π/2) is equal to the number 1. The value of the sin-1(1) has to be find out.

Suppose the value of this function is <em>x</em>. Thus,

x=\sin^{-1}(1)

Solve it further,

\sin(x)=(1)              ......1

The value of sin (π/2) and -sin (-π/2) is equal to 1 such that,

\sin\dfrac{\pi}{2}=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=1

Put this value in the equation 1,

\sin(x)=\sin\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)

Thus, the range will be,

\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2},-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)

Thus, the value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

9.4 The heights of a random sample of 50 college stu- dents showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a stan- dard deviation of 6.9
gladu [14]

Answer:  a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean height  = 174.5 cm

Standard deviation = 6.9 cm

n = 50

we need to find the 98% confidence interval.

So, z = 2.326

(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.

x\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(174.5\pm 2.326\times \dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}})\\\\=(174.5+2.26,174.5-2.26)\\\\=(176.76,172.24)

(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?

Error would be

\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=\dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=0.976

Hence, a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.
