The distance between two points needs to be measured, in meters. The true distance between the points is 10 meters, but due to m

easurement error we can’t measure the distance exactly. Instead, we will observe a value of 10+???? , where the error ???? is distributed (0,0.04) . Find the probability that the observed distance is within 0.4 meters of the true distance. Give an approximate numerical answer.

Answer:

The probability that the observed distance is within 0.4 meters is 0.955

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error (ME) from the mean can be calculated using the formula

ME=z×s where

  • z is the corresponding statistic of the probability that the observed distance is within 0.4 meters
  • s is the standard deviation of the observed error

Error is distributed as N(0,0.04) means that measurements have <em>standard deviation</em> 0.2, square root of 0.04.

<em>Margin of error</em> is given as 0.4 meters.

Thus 0.4=z×0.2  gives z=2 and the corresponding p-value is 0.045, which means that the probability of observing a margin of error 0.4 is 1-0.045=0.955.

Answer:

Same side: 4, 1.5, 5/3, 0.2

Opposite side: -5, -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that dilation caused by a positive factor leads to the object being on the same side and dilation caused by a negative factor leads to the object being on the opposite side. Therefore, the dilation caused by positive numbers 4, 1.5, 5/3, 0.2 will lead to object being on the same side. And dilation caused by a negative numbers -5 and -1/4 will lead to object being reflected to the opposite side

The slope is the coefficient of x when the coefficient of y is 1.
The slope is -0.5
The y-intercept is where x=0
y = 17 - 0.5 (0)
y = 17
The y-intercept is 17.

Factor the following problems SHOW YOUR WORK<br> 1. x^2+16x+24<br> 2. x^2-10a+25
nalin [4]
<span>x^2+16x+24:  Think:  What are the integer factors of 24?  I'd list 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24.  Next:   Look for a pair of factors from that list that: 

(1)ADD up to 16 AND (2) whose product is 24.  Unfortunately there seems to be no such pair from the above list.

So:  Use the quadratic formula to find the roots of </span>x^2+16x+24:

        -16 plus or minus sqrt[ 256-4(1)(24) ]
x = --------------------------------------------------
                                  2
          -16 plus or minus sqrt(160)       -16 plus or minus 4 sqrt(10)
    = --------------------------------------- = ----------------------------------------
                                   2                                               2
           2(-8 plus or minus 2 sqrt(10) )
     = ------------------------------------------- = -8 plus or minus 2sqrt(10)
                                2

If c is a root, (x-c) is a factor.  Thus, if -8 plus 2sqrt(10) is a root,

(x+8-2sqrt(10) is a factor.  Can you find the other factor?


x^2-10a+25 is much easier to factor.  The sqrt of 25 is 5, so try x= -5 as a root.  Dividing x-5 into <span>x^2-10a+25, we get x-5.  Therefore, the factors are

(x-5) and (x-5).</span>
