Solve by completing the square<br> -x^2+8x-6=0

Svetllana [295]

-x² + 8x - 6 = 0
x = <u>-(8) +/- √((8)² - 4(-1)(-6))</u>
   2(-1)
x = <u>-8 +/- √(64 - 20)</u>
       -2
x = <u>-8 +/- √(44)
</u> -2<u>
</u>x = <u>-8 +/- 2√(11)
</u> -2
x = <u>-8 + 2√(11)</u>    x = <u>-8 - 2√(11)
</u>    -2 -2<u>
</u>x = 4 - √(11)    x = -8 + √(11)

"A laboratory tested 73 chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was 230 milligrams with LaTeX: \sigmaσ = 17.4

Scrat [10]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content, μ, of all such eggs is between 226.01 and 233.99 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.025 = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.96*\frac{17.4}{\sqrt{73}} = 3.99$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 230 - 3.99 = 226.01

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 230 + 3.99 = 233.99.

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content, μ, of all such eggs is between 226.01 and 233.99 milligrams.

Let f(x) = 1/x . Find the number b such that the average rate of change of f on the interval [2, b] is − 1/8

vekshin1

Answer:

b=4

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we have the function $f(x)=1/x$ . We need to find b such that the average rate of change or the slope is -1/8 between the intervel [2, b]. First, let's find f(2).

f(2) = 1/(2) = 1/2

So, we have the point (2, 1/2)

At point b, f(b) = 1/b.

Let's plug this into the slope formula:

$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{.5-\frac{1}{b} }{2-b} =-1/8$

Now, we just need to solve for b. First, let's multiply both the numerator and denominator by b (to get rid of the annoying fraction in the numerator).

$\frac{.5b-1}{2b-b^2} =\frac{-1}{8}$

Now, cross multiply.

$4b-8=b^2-2b$

$b^2-6b+8=0$

Solve for b. Factor using the numbers -4 and -2.

$=(b-4)(b-2)=0$

Thus, b=4 or b=2.

However, b=2 is not a possible solution since the interval [2,2] means nothing. Thus, b=4.
