Sidana [21]

Answer:

x2-5x-8=0  

Step-by-step explanation:

Two solutions were found :

x =(5-√57)/2=-1.275

x =(5+√57)/2= 6.275

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "x2"   was replaced by   "x^2".  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

1.1     Factoring  x2-5x-8  

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -5x  its coefficient is  -5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -8  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -5 .

    -8 + 1 = -7  

    -4+  2 = -2  

    -2+  4 = 2  

    -1 +   8 = 7

QveST [7]
The formula for the standard error is this:
σM = σ / √N

where
σM is the standard error
σ is the standard deviation
N is the number of samples

So,
σM = 0.45 / √50
σM = 0.0636 or 6.36%

The standard error is 0.0636

Answer:

Total material needed = 9.5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions  of I = 2. 5feet x 1 feet

    Area = 2.5 square feet

Dimensions of S :

                      Top part = 1 feet x 1 feet

                         Area of top part = 1 square feet

                      Bottom part = 1 feet x 2.5 feet

                          Area of bottom part = 2.5 square feet

  Total Area of S = 2.5 + 1  = 3.5  square feet

Total material needed = Area of I + Area of S + Area of S

                                  = 2.5 + 3.5 + 3.5

                                  = 9.5 square feet.

To find the median, find the middle number. Since there are 10 numbers, find the 5th one and the 6th one and find their average.

The two numbers are both 9, so its safe to say that the median is 9.

to find the median of the first and quartile, you have to place a line where the median should be and find the median of that. Q1 and Q2 will be 5 and 11 (respectively).

Its easy to see that all the lines start at the lowest point given and end at the largest point given, so match Q1, the median, and Q3

The only line that has lines at the Q1, median, and Q3 we figured out is answer C, so therefore it is the answer.
