The formula for the solution is:
x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

In your case: a=-2, b=3, c=5

Replace these in the formula and you'll get:
x_1=\frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-3 + \sqrt{3^2 - 4 \cdot (-2) \cdot 5}}{2 \cdot (-2)}=-1
x_2=\frac{-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-3 - \sqrt{3^2 - 4 \cdot (-2) \cdot 5}}{2 \cdot (-2)}= \frac{5}{2}

So you have two roots:
x1 = -1
x2 = 5/2

This question also translates to: How many times do you multiply 2 times itself to get 32? The answer is 5 because you multiply 2 times itself 5 times to get 32.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

The answer is "(25.32, 30.68)"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\bar x = 28\\\\ \sigma = 4\\\\n =26\\\\

When 98\% confidence level so, the z:

\alpha = 1 - 98\% = 1 - 0.98 = 0.2\\\\\frac{\alpha}{2} =\frac{0.02}{2} = 0.01\\\\Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = Z_{0.01} = 1.645\ \ \  ( Using \ z \ table )\\\\

E = Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} \times ( \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})  

= 1.645 \times (\frac{4}{\sqrt{26}})\\\\=2.68

When  98% confidence interval estimate of the population mean  is,

\bar x - E < \mu < \bar x + E\\\\28 - 2.68 <  \mu < 28 + 2.68\\\\25.32 <  \mu < 30.68\\\\(25.32,  30.68)\\\\
