Answer:

D 1 and -1

Step-by-step explanation:

$8 {x}^{2} + 16x + 8 = 0$

divided by 8

${x}^{2} + 2x + 1 = 0$

(x+1)(x+1)=0

so x=+-1

In Ryan Corporation, the first shift produced 5 1/2 times as many lightbulbs as the second shift. If the total lightbulbs produc

Andru [333]

Answer:

13750

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of bulbs produced in second shift

Number of bulbs produced in 1st shift= 5.5x

Total number of bulbs= 5.5x+x

16250=5.5x+x

x=2500

Number of bulbs produced in shift 1= 5.5×2500

= 13750

Hacksaw’s Boats of St. Lucia takes tourists on a daily whale/dolphinwatch cruise. Their brochure claims an 80% chance of siting

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The probability you see a dolphin or a whale on both days is 0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the brochure claims an 80% chance of siting a dolphin or a whale.

The provided claims can be written as: 80% or 0.80

Let say first day you see a dolphin or a whale and same happen on the next day.

Thus, the probability is:

0.80 × 0.80 = 0.64

Probability of see them on both days is 0.64

Hence, the probability you see a dolphin or a whale on both days is 0.64

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

$y=-6x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

$m=\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ where two points that fall on the line are $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$

Given the graph, we determine which points we could use. For example, we could use the two points $(0,2)$ and $(1,-4)$ :

$m=\displaystyle \frac{-4-2}{1-0}\\\\m=\displaystyle \frac{-6}{1}\\\\m=-6$

Therefore, the slope of the line is -6. Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=-6x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

Recall that the y-intercept occurs when x=0. Given the point (0,2), we know that the y-intercept is 2. Plug this into $y=-6x+b$ :

$y=-6x+2$

I hope this helps!

In Applied Life Data Analysis (Wiley, 1982), Wayne Nelson presents the breakdown time of an insulating fluid between electrodes

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The sample mean is $\bar{x}=14.371$ min.

The sample standard deviation is $\sigma = 18.889$ min.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set:

$\begin{array}{cccccccc}0.15&0.82&0.81&1.44&2.70&3.28&4.00&4.70\\4.96&6.49&7.25&8.03&8.40&12.15&31.89&32.47\\33.79&36.80&72.92&&&&&\end{array}$

The mean of a data set is commonly known as the average. You find the mean by taking the sum of all the data values and dividing that sum by the total number of data values.

The formula for the mean of a sample is

$\bar{x} = \frac{{\sum}x}{n}$

where, $n$ is the number of values in the data set.

$\bar{x}=\frac{0.15+0.82+0.81+1.44+2.7+3.28+4+4.7+4.96+6.49+7.25+8.03+8.4+12.15+31.89+32.47+33.79+36.80+72.92}{19}\\\\\bar{x}=14.371$

The standard deviation measures how close the set of data is to the mean value of the data set. If data set have high standard deviation than the values are spread out very much. If data set have small standard deviation the data points are very close to the mean.

To find standard deviation we use the following formula

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} }$

The mean of a sample is $\bar{x}=14.371$ .

Create the below table.

Find the sum of numbers in the last column to get.

$\sum{\left(x_i - \overline{X}\right)^2} = 6422.0982$

$\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} } = \sqrt{ \frac{ 6422.0982 }{ 19 - 1} } \approx 18.889$

Find x and y on triangle Also the degree is 30 and the other thing is 7sqrt3

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

y =7

x =14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use trig functions

tan 30 = opp /adj

tan 30 = y/ 7 sqrt(3)

7 sqrt(3) tan 30 = y

7 sqrt(3) * 1/ sqrt(3) =t

7 =y

sin 30 = opp/ hyp

sin 30 = 7/x

x sin 30 =7

x = 7/ sin 30

x = 7 / 1/2

x = 14
