5/6 is not the definite ratio, when you take a larger sample size it could be off by a bit like 499/600 or 501/600

The difference of the square of a number and 4 is equal to 3 times that number. Find the negative solution.
leonid [27]

The negative solution is x = –1.

Solution:

Let the number be x.

Square of a number = x²

3 times a number = 3x

Difference of square of a number and 4 = 3 times that number

\Rightarrow x^2-4=3x

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation, we get

\Rightarrow x^2-3x-4=0

–3x can be written as x – 4x.

\Rightarrow x^2+x-4x-4=0

\Rightarrow( x^2+x)+(-4x-4)=0

1st bracket have common term x and bracket have –4 common term.

\Rightarrow x( x+1)-4(x+1)=0

Take common term x + 1 outside.

(x+1)(x-4)=0

<em>By zero factor principle, if AB = 0 then A = 0 or B = 0.</em>

x + 1 = 0,   x – 4 = 0

x = –1,   x = 4

The negative solution is x = –1.

Answer:

1. Scatter plots are used to observe relationships between variables. The position of each dot on the horizontal and vertical axis indicates values for an individual data point.

2. A Scatter Analysis is used when you need to compare two data sets against each other to see if there is a relationship. Scatter plots are a way of visualizing the relationship; by plotting the data points you get a scattering of points on a graph

x = -2

y=2(-2)-8=-4-8=-12

A = -12

x = 0

y = 2 (0)-8=-8
