Answer:

x = \frac{3}{2}orx=-\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given Equation is

3x^{2} + 2 = 11-x^{2}   .................(i)

Adding ( x^{2} -11 ) on both sides of  (i)

3x^{2}+2+x^{2}-11 = 11-x^{2}+x^{2}-11

solving and cancelling out the terms will give

⇒ 4x^{2} -9=0  

⇒ (2x)^{2} -(3)^{2} = 0     ...................(ii)

Now we Know that

(a)^{2} -(b)^{2} = (a-b)(a+b)  

Applying this on equation (ii)

(2x-3)(2x+3)=0

This will lead us to

Either 2x-3 =0    .......(iii)        or     2x+3=0   ..........(iv)

Solving equation (iii) for value of x

2x - 3 =0

adding 3 on both sides

2x -3 +3 = 0+ 3

2x = 3

Cross multiplying gives

x=\frac{3}{2}

Solving equation (iv) for value of x

2x + 3 =0

adding -3 on both sides

2x -3 +3 = 0- 3

2x = -3

Cross multiplying gives

x=\frac{-3}{2}

so x=\frac{3}{2} and x=\frac{-3}{2}

A credit card company has found that 0.1% of all transactions are fraudulent. It has developed a computer program that correctly
Serjik [45]
Given:
0.1% of all transactions are fraudulent
99% correct identification whether a transaction is fraudulent or not.
Scanned 5,000,000 transactions.

5,000,000 x 0.1% = 5,000 fraudulent transactions.

For me, there are 5,000 fraudulent transactions. This is based on the 0.1% rather than the 99%. Because the problem clearly states that the 0.1% of ALL transaction is identified as fraudulent. The 99% of the computer program only deals with the correct identification of the transaction as either fraudulent or not. For me, it is not a clear measure of the true number of fraudulent transactions.
