Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The answer is x = 2 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² = - 8

Send 8 to the left side of the equation

That is

2x² - 8 = 0

Simplify the expression

Divide both terms by 2

That's

2x² /2 - 8 /2 = 0

x² - 4 = 0

Factorize the expression

that's

(x +2) (x - 2) = 0

x + 2 = 0 x -2 =0

x = -2 x = 2

Therefore x = 2 or x = -2

Hope this helps you

kirill115 [55]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Let \mu be the population mean.

By observing the given information, we have :-

H_0:\mu\leq4\\\\H_a:\mu>4

Since the alternative hypotheses is left tailed so the test is a right-tailed test.

We assume that the time spend by students per day is normally distributed.

Given : Sample size :  n=121 , since n>30 so we use z-test.

Sample mean : \overline{x}=3.15

Standard deviation : \sigma=1.2

Test statistic for population mean :-

z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

\Rightarrow\ z=\dfrac{3.15-4}{\dfrac{1.2}{\sqrt{121}}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ z=-7.79166666667\approx-7.79

Critical value (one-tailed) corresponds to the given significance level :-

z_{\alpha}=z_{0.1}=1.2816

Since the observed value of z (-7.79) is less than the critical value (1.2816) , so we do not reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, we conclude that we have enough evidence to accept that the college students spend an average of 4 hours or less studying per day.
