What is the solution to the following equation? (5x-2)^2=10

Mathematics

GaryK [48]3 years ago

Take the square root of both sides to get rid of parenthasees, remember to get the positive and negative root
5x-2=+/-√10
add 2 to both sides
5x=2+/-√10
divide by 5
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{10} }{y}

x= \frac{2+ \sqrt{10} }{y} or \frac{2- \sqrt{10} }{y}

aprox
x=1.03246 or -0.232456

A random sample of soil specimens was obtained, and the amount of organic matter (%) in the soil was determined for each specime
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

We conclude that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is something other than 3% at 10% significance level.

We conclude that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is 3% at 5% significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a random sample of soil specimens was obtained, and the amount of organic matter (%) in the soil was determined for each specimen;

1.10, 5.09, 0.97, 1.59, 4.60, 0.32, 0.55, 1.45, 0.14, 4.47, 1.20, 3.50, 5.02, 4.67, 5.22, 2.69, 3.98, 3.17, 3.03, 2.21, 0.69, 4.47, 3.31, 1.17, 0.76, 1.17, 1.57, 2.62, 1.66, 2.05.

Let \mu = <u><em>true average percentage of organic matter</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu = 3%      {means that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is 3%}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu \neq 3%      {means that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is something other than 3%}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample t-test statistics</u> because we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                         T.S.  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean percentage of organic matter = 2.481%

             s = sample standard deviation = 1.616%

            n = sample of soil specimens = 30

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u> =  \frac{2.481-3}{\frac{1.616}{\sqrt{30} } }  ~ t_2_9

                                     =  -1.76

The value of t-test statistics is -1.76.

(a) Now, at 10% level of significance the t table gives a critical value of -1.699 and 1.699 at 29 degrees of freedom for the two-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of t, so we have <u><em>sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis</em></u> as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is something other than 3% at 10% significance level.

(b) Now, at 5% level of significance the t table gives a critical value of -2.045 and 2.045 at 29 degrees of freedom for the two-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics lies within the range of critical values of t, so we have <u><em>insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis</em></u> as it will not fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the true average percentage of organic matter in such soil is 3% at 5% significance level.

Please help I will give brainliest to whoever explains step by step
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: In the exact order up to down: 80, 74, 110, 96, 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Do the equation

360=(x-6)+(x+30)+1.2x+x

we can simplify by doing

360=(x-6)+(x+30)+2.2x

=360=x-6+x+30+2.2x

=360=4.2x+24

=336=4.2x

=80=x

x=80

I just started brainly and I want to help more people with their questions please just give a thanks or a rating to keep me going and help more people.

I WILL GIVE A BRANLIEST!<br>What is the graph of the functions?<br> y=2*2^x<br> y=-2*5^x
tekilochka [14]
For this case what you should know is that both functions are of the potential type.
 We have then that
 y = 2 * 2 ^ x
 This function grows exponentially upwards.
 y = -2 * 5 ^ x
 This function grows exponentially downwards.
