Answer:

x=1.3288 or -1.1288

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 20x^{2}-30=4x

    Subtract 4x from both sides

         20x^{2}-4x-30=0

Since we can factor out 2 from whole equation, let's factor out 2.

         2(10x^{2}-2x-15)=0

Divide with 2 on both sides

         10x^{2}-2x-15=0

We got the quadratic equation, we can solve for x using quadratic formula.

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} } {2a}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{2^{2}-4X10X(-15)} } {2X10}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{604} }{20}

x=\frac{2\pm2\sqrt{151}}{20}

x=1.3288or-1.1288

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard devia
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547

So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define some notation

\bar X represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

\sigma=58.2 represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

ME =1 represent the margin of error desire

The margin of error is given by this formula:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}    (a)

And on this case we have that ME =+1 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2   (b)

The critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance would be \alpha=0.01 and the critical value z_{\alpha/2}=2.58, replacing into formula (b) we got:

n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547

So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer

-9x + 12x + 10 simplifies to
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf 3x + 10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

⇒-9 x + 12 x + 10

Grouping like terms:

⇒(12 x - 9 x) + 10

12 x - 9 x = 3 x:

⇒3 x + 10

Scores on an English test are normally distributed with a mean of 31.5 and a standard deviation of 7.3. Find the score that sepa
vladimir1956 [14]

If X is a random variable representing test scores, then the 41st percentile is the score x such that P(X\le x)=0.41. Transform X to the random variable Z that follows the standard normal distribution via X=31.5+7.3Z:

P(X\le x)=P\left(\dfrac{X-31.5}{7.3}\le\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\right)=P\left(Z\le\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\right)=0.41

The z-score for the 41st percentile is about -0.2275, so

\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\approx-0.2275\implies\boxed{x\approx29.8}
