Two times the difference of 13

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kruka [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let number be x

CASE 1) when x>13

2(x-13) = 4

2x - 26 = 4

2x = 30

x = 15

CASE 2) when x<13

2(13 - x) = 4

26 - 2x  = 4

26 - 4 = 2x

22 = 2x

11 = x

Answer:

  2x² +5x -12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...

  (x -p)(x -q) = 0

Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...

  (x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0

Multiplying by 2 gives us ...

  (x +4)(2x -3) = 0

Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...

  2x² +5x -12 = 0

A researcher wants to see if birds that build larger nests lay larger eggs. He selects two random samples of nests: one of small
True [87]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the difference between the average mass of eggs in small and large nest is between a lower limit of 0.81 and an upper limit of 2.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is given by mean +/- margin of error (E)

Eggs from small nest

Sample size (n1) = 60

Mean = 37.2

Sample variance = 24.7

Eggs from large nest

Sample size (n2) = 159

Mean = 35.6

Sample variance = 39

Pooled variance = [(60-1)24.7 + (159-1)39] ÷ (60+159-2) = 7619.3 ÷ 217 = 35.11

Standard deviation = sqrt(pooled variance) = sqrt(35.11) = 5.93

Difference in mean = 37.2 - 35.6 = 1.6

Degree of freedom = n1+n2 - 2 = 60+159-2 = 217

Confidence level = 95%

Critical value (t) corresponding to 217 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 1.97132

E = t×sd/√(n1+n2) = 1.97132×5.93/√219 = 0.79

Lower limit = mean - E = 1.6 - 0.79 = 0.81

Upper limit = mean + E = 1.6 + 0.79 = 2.39

95% confidence interval for the difference in average mass is (0.81, 2.39)

Rectangle ABCD was dilated to create rectangle A'B'C'D.
77julia77 [94]

The first thing we must do for this case is to calculate the scale factor.

For this, we make the relationship between two parallel sides.

We have then:

k =\frac{B'C'}{BC}

Substituting values we have:

k = \frac{9.5}{3.8}\\k = 2.5

We are now looking for the value of AB

We have then:

AB = \frac{A'B'}{k}

Substituting values:

AB = \frac{15}{2.5}\\AB = 6

Answer:

The scale factor is:

k = 2.5

The value of AB is:

AB = 6
