What are the roots of x^2-4x+4?

The roots are just the zero value of the formula. To find these, we factor:

(x - 2)(x - 2)

(x - 2)^2

to make this into a zero, we set x-2 = 0, then solve for x

x = 2

If x = 2, then the brackets = 0, and those are the roots

The roots are x = 2

Leave a comment if you couldn’t understand, and I’ll try to answer.

The root of the equation x^2-4x+4 is x=2.

To find the root you have to replace y with 0 and then solve for x.

Hope I could help! :)

Carter Road his bike 9/10 of a mile from his house to his grandmothers house. On his way back home, he rode 3/8 of a mile before

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Carter rode his bike 9/10 of a mile from his house to his grandmothers house. This means that the distance from Carter's house to his grandmother's house is 0.9 miles. On his way back home, he rode 3/8 of a mile before the tyre on his bike went flat. This means that he rode 0.375 miles before his tyre went flat. The distance he must walk before he gets home will be the total distance from home minus the distance that he rode. It becomes

0.9 - 0.375 = 0.575 miles

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".
