<span>1. Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x - 14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.

Answer: 5x^2 -3x  -14

Explanation:

You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.

I will show  you how to factor that polynomial from zero:

1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14

2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>

5 [5x^2 - 3x  -14 ]
----------------------
         5

3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:

5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
              5

4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms

(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
              5

5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:

(5x  ) ( 5x   ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7)  <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is  - 70

=>

(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
         5

6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2

7) factored expression

(x - 2) (5x + 7)

8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)


2. Question 2.  The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 + 7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring

Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Explanation:

The procedure is the same of the question 1.

1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20

2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>

(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
              6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:

(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)

=>

(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
           6

(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
        3.2

(6x + 15)      (6x - 8)
------------- .  ------------ =
      3                2

(2x + 5)(3x - 4)

4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

The international cricket team is going to stadium to play the T20 cricket game. A coordinate grid is superimposed on a highway
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The coordinate of the rest stop is: (5,2.5)

The distance between the hotel and the stadium is 32 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (3,4) --- Team hotel

(x_2,y_2) = (7,1) --- Stadium

Solving (a): The coordinates of the rest stop

The rest stop is at half way;

So, the coordinate is:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}(x_1+x_2,y_1+y_2)

This gives:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}(3+7,4+1)

(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}(10,5)

Open bracket

(x,y) = (5,2.5)

Solving (b): Distance between the hotel and the stadium

We have:

(x_1,y_1) = (3,4) --- Team hotel

(x_2,y_2) = (7,1) --- Stadium

The distance (d) is:

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

So, we have:

d = \sqrt{(3 - 7)^2 + (4 - 1)^2}

d = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + 3^2}

d = \sqrt{16 + 9}

d = \sqrt{25}

d =5

From the question, we have:

1\ unit = 6.4\ miles

So:

d =5 * 6.4\ miles

d =32\ miles

Use the sample data and confidence level to construct the confidence interval estimate of the population proportion p. n equals
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

(0.767,0.833)

Step-by-step explanation:

The 95% confidence interval for population proportion p can be computed as

p-z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }

The z-value associated with 95% confidence level is 1.96.

whereas p=x/n

We are given that x=440 and n=550.

p=440/550=0.8

0.8-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.8(0.2)}{550} }

0.8-1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.16}{550} }

0.8-1.96\sqrt{0.00029 }

0.8-1.96(0.01706)

0.8-0.03343

0.76657

Thus, the required confidence interval is

0.767<P<0.833  (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Hence, we are 95% confident that our true population proportion will lie in the interval (0.767,0.833)
