X² + x - 6 = x² + 3 x - 2 x - 6 = x ( x + 3 ) - 2 ( x + 3 ) = ( x + 3 ) ( x - 2 )
x² + 5 x + 4 = x² + x + 4 x + 4 = x ( x + 1 ) + 4 ( x + 1 ) = ( x + 1 ) ( x + 4 )
( x + 1 ) / ( x² + x - 6 ) : ( x² + 5 x + 4 ) / ( x + 3 ) =
= ( x + 1 ) / ( x² + x + 6 ) · ( x + 3 ) / ( x² + 5 x + 4 ) =
= ( x + 1 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 2 ) · ( x + 3 ) / ( x + 1 ) ( x + 4 ) =
= 1 / ( x - 2)( x + 4 )

NISA [10]

Answer: $A=\frac{14}{9}\cdot \sqrt{2}\ unit^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two curves are given

$y=10 x^2$

and $y=x^2+2$

the two curves intersect at

$10x^2=x^2+2$

$x=\pm \frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}$

to get the we need to integrate the curves over x axis

$A=\int_{-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}}^{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}}\left ( x^2+3-10x^2\right )dx$

$A=2\int_{0}^{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}}\left ( 3-9x^2\right )dx$

$A=2\left [ 3\left ( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}\right )-\frac{9}{3}\left ( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}\right )^3\right ]$

$A=2\sqrt{2}\left [ 1-\frac{2}{9}\right ]$

$A=\frac{14}{9}\cdot \sqrt{2}\ unit^2$

The CEO of a large electric utility claims that more than 75 percent of his customers are very satisfied with the service they r

vichka [17]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.77-0.75}{\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{100}}}=0.462$

Now we can find the p value using the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

$p_v =P(z>0.462)=0.322$

Since the p value is large enough, we have evidence to conclude that the true proportion for this case is NOT significanctly higher than 0.75 since we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at any significance level lower than 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=100 represent the random sample selected

$\hat p=0.77$ estimated proportion of students that are satisfied

is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if more than 75 percent of his customers are very satisfied with the service they receive, then the system of hypothesis is.:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.75$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.75$

The statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.77-0.75}{\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{100}}}=0.462$

Now we can find the p value using the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

$p_v =P(z>0.462)=0.322$

Since the p value is large enough we have evidence to conclude that the true proportion for this case is NOT significanctly higher than 0.75 since we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at any significance level lower than 30%

Find the probability of at least one

zmey [24]

Answer:

99.8% probability of at least one failure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
