You can read it of the graph which is (1,3) or also calculate it with vectors:

calculate the vector CD:
(5-(-3),2-4)=(8,-2)
to calculate the midpoint you need half of the vector length:
(8,-2)/2=(4,-1)
add the vector to C:
(-3,4)+(4,-1)=(1,3)=midpoint of CD

so it's the third option

Historical data for a local manufacturing company show that the average number of defects per product produced is 2. In addition

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The answer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For a poisson distribution, the variance is equal to the mean. Since the average number of defects per product is 2, it means that the mean per product is 2. Hence for 32 units it is 16 divided by 2 which is 16.

Also, since the square root of variance is equal standard deviation, the square root of 16 is 4.

Need help to do this step by step please <br> 3x2 - 2x=-1

sdas [7]

Answer:

Solving the expression $3x^2-2x=-1$ we get: $\mathbf{x=\frac{1+\sqrt{2}i }{3}\:or\:x=\frac{1-\sqrt{2}i }{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the expression: $3x^2-2x=-1$

This is a quadratic expression and it can be solved using quadratic formula

Solving:

$3x^2-2x=-1\\$

we can write it as:

$3x^2-2x+1=0$

The quadratic formula is: $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

where a = 3, b = -2 and c= 1

Putting values and solving:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(3)(1)}}{2(3)}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{4-12}}{2(3)}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{-8}}{6}\\We\:know\:that\:\sqrt{-1}=i\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{8}\sqrt{-1} }{6} \\We\:know\:\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{2\times 2 \times 2}=\sqrt{2^2 \times 2}=2\sqrt{2} \\x=\frac{2\pm2\sqrt{2}i }{6}\\Now,\\x=\frac{2+2\sqrt{2}i }{6}\:or\:x=\frac{2-2\sqrt{2}i }{6}\\x=\frac{2(1+\sqrt{2}i) }{6}\:or\:x=\frac{2(1-\sqrt{2}i) }{6}\\x=\frac{1+\sqrt{2}i }{3}\:or\:x=\frac{1-\sqrt{2}i }{3}$

So, solving the expression $3x^2-2x=-1$ we get: $\mathbf{x=\frac{1+\sqrt{2}i }{3}\:or\:x=\frac{1-\sqrt{2}i }{3}}$
