Scrat [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a) 8.103 g

b) 9.2948

c) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Data reported:

9.314 g, 9.215 g, 9.323 g, 8.103 g, 9.278 g, and 9.344 g

Now,

All the values except the 8.103 are above 9

Here the data 8.103 varies very much with respect to the other values

Hence,

a) the data 8.103 should be excluded

b) average value of the mass of the penny = \frac{9.314 + 9.215 + 9.323 + 9.278 + 9.344 }{5}

= 9.2948 g

c) Deviation = Mean - Data

9.2948 - 9.314 = -0.0192

9.2948 - 9.215 = 0.0798

9.2948 - 9.323 = -0.0282

9.2948 - 9.278 = 0.0168

9.2948 - 9.344 = -0.0492

Thus,

Average deviation from mean = tex]\frac{-0.0192 + 0.0798 -0.0282 + 0.0168 -0.0492 }{5}[/tex]

= 0

Solve the following quadratics. State the FACTORS AND SOLUTIONS. 1. 2x^2 - 7x + 3 2. 3x^2 + 7x +2
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1. x = 3, 1/2 (solutions); (x - 3)(2x - 1) (factors)

2. x = -1/3, -2 (solutions); (3x + 1)(x + 2) (factors)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. 2x^2 - 7x + 3</u>

To solve problem 1, you will need to identify your a, b, and c values in this quadratic function.

Since this problem is in standard form, it will be easy to identify these values. The standard form of a quadratic function is ax^2 + bx + c.

The a value is 2, the b value is -7, and the c value is 3 if we use our standard form and see which numbers are plugged into it.

Since we know that

  • a = 2
  • b = -7
  • c = 3

we can use the quadratic formula: x = \frac{-b~\pm~\sqrt{b^2~-~4ac} }{2a}

Substitute the a, b, and c values into the quadratic formula: x=\frac{-(-7)\pm\sqrt{(-7)^2-4(2)(3)} }{2(2)}

Now simplify using the laws of pemdas: x=\frac{7\pm\sqrt{(49)-(24)} }{4}

Simplify even further: x=\frac{7\pm\sqrt{(25)} }{4} \rightarrow x=\frac{7\pm (5) }{4}

Now split this equation into two equations to solve for x: x=\frac{12 }{4} ~~and~~ x=\frac{2 }{4}

12/4 can be simplified to 3, and 2/4 can be simplified to 1/2.

This means your solutions to problem 1 is 3, 1/2.

\boxed {x=3,\frac{1}{2} }

There is also another way to solve for the quadratic functions, and this was by factoring.

If you factor 2x^2 - 7x + 3 using the bottoms-up method, you will get (x - 3)(2x - 1).

After factoring, solving for the solutions is simple because all you have to do is set each factor to 0.

  • x - 3 = 0
  • 2x - 1 = 0

After solving for x by adding 3 to both sides, or by adding 1 to both sides then dividing by 2, you will end up with the same solutions: x = 3 and x = 1/2.

<u>2. 3x^2 + 7x + 2</u>

To save time I'll be using the bottoms-up factoring method, but remember to refer back to problem 1 (quadratic formula) if you prefer that method.

Factor this quadratic function using the bottoms-up method. After factoring you will have (3x + 1)(x + 2). These are your factors.

Now to solve for x and find the solutions of the quadratic function, you will set both factors equal to 0.

  • 3x + 1 = 0
  • x + 2 = 0

Solve.

<u>First factor:</u> 3x + 1 = 0

Subtract 1 from both sides.

3x = -1

Divide both sides by 3.

x = -1/3

<u>Second factor:</u> x + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides.

x = -2

Your solutions are x = -1/3 and x = -2.

\boxed {x = -\frac{1}{3} , -2}
