The equation that has the solution
is 3x^2 - 10x + 6 = 0
<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>
The solution is given as:

The solution to a quadratic equation is

By comparing both equations, we have:
-b = 5
b^2 - 4ac = 7
2a = 3
Solve for b in -b = 5
b = -5
Solve for a in 2a = 3
a = 1.5
Substitute values for a and b in b^2 - 4ac = 7
(-5)^2 - 4 * 1.5c = 7
Evaluate
25 - 6c = 7
Subtract 25 from both sides
-6c = -18
Divide by - 6
c = 3
So, we have:
a = 1.5
b = -5
c = 3
A quadratic equation is represented as:
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
So, we have:
1.5x^2 - 5x +3 = 0
Multiply through by 2
3x^2 - 10x + 6 = 0
Hence, the equation that has the solution
is 3x^2 - 10x + 6 = 0

The perimeter of the triangle with those given lengths is
Let's call our estimate x. It will be the average of n IQ scores. Our average won't usually exactly equal the mean 97. But if we repeated averages over different sets of tests, the mean of our estimate the average would be the same as the mean of a single test,
μ = 97
Variances add, so the standard deviations add in quadrature, like the Pythagorean Theorem in n dimensions. This means the standard deviation of the average x is
σ = 17/√n
We want to be 95% certain
97 - 5 ≤ x ≤ 97 + 5
By the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% certain means within two standard deviations. That means we're 95% sure that
μ - 2σ ≤ x ≤ μ + 2σ
Comparing to what we want, that's means we have to solve
2σ = 5
2 (17/√n) = 5
√n = 2 (17/5)
n = (34/5)² = 46.24
We better round up.
Answer: We need a sample size of 47 to be 95% certain of being within 5 points of the mean
