Answer:
x = 2/3 or x = -1
Step-by-step explanation by completing the square:
Solve for x:
3 x^2 + x - 2 = 0
Divide both sides by 3:
x^2 + x/3 - 2/3 = 0
Add 2/3 to both sides:
x^2 + x/3 = 2/3
Add 1/36 to both sides:
x^2 + x/3 + 1/36 = 25/36
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 1/6)^2 = 25/36
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 1/6 = 5/6 or x + 1/6 = -5/6
Subtract 1/6 from both sides:
x = 2/3 or x + 1/6 = -5/6
Subtract 1/6 from both sides:
Answer: x = 2/3 or x = -1
Hello! The question simplified is 4x + 14. This is because when you have a negative symbol in front of the numbers you need to distribute, you change the numbers inside into the opposites, and then multiply by -1. When you do this, you get 3 + 4x + 5 + 6. When you combine like terms, you get 4x + 14. The answer is B: 4x + 14.

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
mean (μ) = 12, SD(σ) = 2.3, sample size (n) = 65
Given that the confidence level (c) = 90% = 0.9
α = 1 - c = 0.1
α/2 = 0.05
The z score of α/2 is the same as the z score of 0.45 (0.5 - 0.05) which is equal to 1.65
The margin of error (E) is given as:

The confidence interval = μ ± E = 12 ± 0.47 = (11.53, 12.47)
2)
mean (μ) = 23, SD(σ) = 12, sample size (n) = 45
Given that the confidence level (c) = 88% = 0.88
α = 1 - c = 0.12
α/2 = 0.06
The z score of α/2 is the same as the z score of 0.44 (0.5 - 0.06) which is equal to 1.56
The margin of error (E) is given as:

The confidence interval = μ ± E = 23 ± 2.8 = (22.2, 25.8)
Answer:
x ≈ 33.1°
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan x =
=
, then
x =
