Divide (15x^2+x-8)/(3x-1)

blondinia [14]

Simplifying -15x2 + -2x + 8 = 0
Reorder the terms: 8 + -2x + -15x2 = 0 Solving 8 + -2x + -15x2 = 0 Solving for variable 'x'.
Factor a trinomial. (2 + -3x)(4 + 5x) = 0 Subproblem 1Set the factor '(2 + -3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying 2 + -3x = 0 Solving 2 + -3x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + -3x = 0 + -2
Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -3x = 0 + -2 -3x = 0 + -2
Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -3x = -2
Divide each side by '-3'. x = 0.6666666667
Simplifying x = 0.6666666667
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(4 + 5x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying 4 + 5x = 0
Solving 4 + 5x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4' to each side of the equation. 4 + -4 + 5x = 0 + -4
Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0 0 + 5x = 0 + -4 5x = 0 + -4
Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4 5x = -4
Divide each side by '5'. x = -0.8 Simplifying x = -0.8
Solutionx = {0.6666666667, -0.8}

Use completing the square to determine which of the following gives the solutions to 3x2 - 24x + 40 = 28.

jeka94

Answer:

$x=4+2\sqrt{3}$

$x=4-2\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Completing the square

when $ax^2+bx+c=0$

Given equation:

$3x^2-24x+40=28$

Subtract 40 from both sides:

$\implies 3x^2-24x=-12$

Divide both sides by 3:

$\implies x^2-8x=-4$

Add the square of half the coefficient of $x$ to both sides:

$(\frac{b}{2})^2=(\frac{-8}{2})^2=16$

$\implies x^2-8x+16=-4+16$

Factor the left side and simplify the right side:

$\implies (x-4)^2=12$

Square root both sides:

$\implies x-4=\pm\sqrt{12}$

Add 4 to both sides and simplify the radical:

$\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4 \cdot 3}$

$\implies x=4\pm\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}$

$\implies x=4\pm2\sqrt{3}$

An appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W. From pre

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

We conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W with a population standard deviation of 15 W.

They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W.

Let $\mu$ = mean power consumption for microwave ovens.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ $\leq$ 250 W {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ > 250 W {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean power consumption for ovens = 257.3 W

σ = population standard deviation = 15 W

n = sample of microwave ovens = 20

So, the test statistics = $\frac{257.3-250}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{20} } }$

= 2.176

The value of z test statistics is 2.176.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as 2.176 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.
