4y2+8y=11

(2y+2)^2 -4 = 11

(2y+2)^2 = 15

(2y+2) = +-√15

y= √15 /2 - 1 , -√15/2 -1

y= (√15-2)/2, (-√15-2)/2

Find the value of 7v-10 given that -11v-7=4. Simplify your answer as much as possible.

densk [106]

First thing to do is solve the given equation for v

-11v-7 = 4

-11v = 4+7

-11v = 11

v = 11/(-11)

v = -1

Once we know this, we can use it to compute the following

7v-10 = 7*(-1) - 10 = -7 - 10 = -17

Answer:

$7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698$

$7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Weight before diet 180 125 240 150

Weight after diet 170 130 215 152

We define the random variable $D = before-after$ and we can calculate the inidividual values:

D: 10, -5, 25, -2

And we can calculate the mean with this formula:

$\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And the deviation with:

$s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i- \bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And after replace we got:

$\bar D= 7, s_d = 13.638$

And the confidence interval for this case would be given by:

$\bar D \pm t_{\alpha/2} \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df = n-1= 4-1=3$

For the 95% of confidence the value for the significance is $\alpha=0.05$ and the critical value would be $t_{\alpha/2}= 3.182$ . And replacing we got:

$7-3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= -14.698$

$7+3.182 \frac{13.638}{\sqrt{4}}= 28.698$
