Answer: q = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic formula as

x = [-b +/-√(b^2 -4ac)]/2a

b = -14

a = 1

c = q

Difference d between the two roots.

d = [-b + √(b^2 -4ac)]/2a - [-b -√(b^2 -4ac)]/2a

d = 2√(b^2 -4ac)/2a

d = √(b^2 -4ac)/a

And d = 6

Substituting the values of a,b and c. We have;

6 = √[(-14^2) - (4×1×q)]

Square both sides

6^2 = 196 - 4q

4q = 196 - 36

q = 160/4

q = 40

The equation becomes

x^2 - 14x + 40 = 0

How do you write 9.009 as a percentage?
Oksanka [162]
900.9% would be 9.009 as a percentage.

It's 900% because it's a whole number and it's .9% because of the last 9 in the number (the thousandth - 3 digits after the decimal).

Semenov [28]

Complete Question

Pennsylvania Refining Company is studying the relationship between the pump price of gasoline and the number of gallons sold. For a sample of 14 stations last Tuesday, the correlation was 0.65.At the 0.01 significance level Can the company conclude that the correlation is positive

Answer:

Yes the company conclude that the correlation is positive

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  14

    The correlation is  r =  0.65

     

The  null hypothesis is  H_o :  r <  0

The  alternative hypothesis is  H_1 :  r > 0

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

       Sr =  \sqrt{1- r}

       Sr =  \sqrt{1- 0.65}

       Sr = 0.616

The  degree of freedom for the one-tail test is

       df =  n- 2

        df =  14- 2

        df = 12

The standard error is evaluated as

        SE  =  \frac{0.616}{ \sqrt{12} }

        SE  =0.1779

The test statistics  is evaluated as

      t =  \frac{r }{SE}

       t =  \frac{0.65 }{0.1779}

        t =  3.654

The p-value of of  t is obtained from the z table, the value is  

        p-value =  P(t <  3.654) =  0.00012909

Given that p-value  <  \alpha  then we reject the null hypothesis

           Hence the company can conclude that the correlation is positive
