Answer:

x = 2 , - 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : x² + 9x – 22 = 0

To find : What values of x make the equation.

Solution : we have given x² + 9x – 22 = 0

On factoring

x² + 11x - 2x – 22 = 0 .

Taking common x from first two term and -2 from last two terms.

x ( x +11) - 2 (x +11) = 0.

On grouping

(x -2) (x +11) = 0

For

x - 2 =0

x = 2 .

For

x + 11 = 0

x = -11.

Therefore, x = 2 , - 11.

If you would like to solve the equation x^2 + 9x - 22 = 0, you can do this using the following steps:

<span>x^2 + 9x - 22 = 0
</span>(x - 2) * (x + 11) = 0
1. x = 2
2. x = - 11

The correct result would be x = 2 and x = - 11.

A woman is randomly selected from the 18–24 age group. For women of this group, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally

Naddik [55]

Answer:

$X \sim N(114.8,13.1)$

Where $\mu=114.8$ and $\sigma=13.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>140)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>1.924)=1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(114.8,13.1)$

Where $\mu=114.8$ and $\sigma=13.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>140)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this: $P(X>140)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{140-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{140- 1114.8}{2.6})=P(z>1.924)$ And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>1.924)=1-P(z$

The ratio 12:20 because you need it to be equal to 3:5. 3 times 4 which makes 12 so you need to multiply 5 with 4 too

The smith family is designing new plans for an in ground pool. mr smith draws a rectangular shape with a length that is 5 feet l

dolphi86 [110]

Answer
Are of the pool = w² + 5w (in square feet)

Explanation

Since the pool is rectangular in shape,
Area of the pool can be calculated using the formula for the area of a rectangle

Area of rectangle = length x width

Given,
Width of pool (Assume is same as height) = w
Length of pool= w + 5

Area = w * (w + 5)
= w² + 5w (in square feet)
where w is the width of the pool
