Why does (x-2)^2+9=0 have no real solutions?
1 answer:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 2)² + 9 = 0 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
(x - 2)² = - 9 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 2 = ±
yields no real solutions
There is no real number when multiplied by itself gives - 9
In fact the solutions to are said to be imaginary, that is ± 3i
where i =

The answer to the question is;
The probability that the resulting sample mean of nicotine content will be less than 0.89 is 0.1587 or 15.87 %.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of the distribution = 0.9 mg
The standard deviation of the sample = 0.1 mg
The size of the sample = 100
The mean of he sample = 0.89
The z score for sample mean is given by
where
X = Mean of the sample
μ = Mean of the population
σ = Standard deviation of the population
Therefore Z = = -1
From the standard probabilities table we have the probability for a z value of -1.0 = 0.1587
Therefore the probability that the resulting sample mean will be less than 0.89 = 0.1587 That is the probability that the mean is will be less than 0.89 is 15.87 % probability.

Step-by-step explanation:
Each point moves to half its previous distance from P. It is probably easier to count grid squares on the graph than it is to do the math on the coordinates.
If you're doing the math on the coordinates, it is convenient to use P = (0, 0), then multiply each of the coordinates of A, B, and C by 1/2. For example:
A' = (1/2)A = (1/2)(8, 4) = (4, 2)
