Answer: (-5/2,0) is the other x intercept.


Step-by-step explanation:

Make use of given fact that (x - 1/2) is a factor of the polynomial.

Divide 4x^2 + 8x - 5 by (x - 1/2)

Partial quotient 4x.

Subtract 4x × (x - 1/2) = 4x^2 - 2x from dividend giving 10x - 5 remainder.

Second partial quotient is 10,

10 × (x - 1/2) = 10x - 5, remainder zero

(x - 1/2)(4x + 10) = 4x^2 + 8x - 5

Graph of the parabola crosses the x axis where 4x+10=0, x = -5/2.

In order to estimate the mean amount of time computer users spend on the internet each​ month, how many computer users must be s
levacccp [35]

Answer:

1877 computer users

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that for 95% of confident, the value of z has a value of 1.96 (attached table about it), they also mention the margin of error (E) that is 10 and finally the standard deviation (sd) that has a value of 221.

We apply the following formula:

n = [z * sd / E] ^ 2

replacing:

n = [1.96 * 221/10] ^ 2

n = 1876.27

that is, the minimum sample size is 1877

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

"Teens and Distracted Driving: Texting, Talking and Other Uses of the Cell Phone Behind the Wheel"

a. The inference made involves estimation.  The question provided that the statements were made on the basis of the resulting data and not on the basis of some hypothesis testing.

This implies that some statistics were calculated from sample data to approximate the population parameter, as shown in the statements.  The statements were not an attempt to establish the statistical significance of some claims.

b. The population of interest is American teenagers between 12-17.

Step-by-step explanation:

An inference from data is a statistical estimation by which some statistics are calculated based on the sample data of 800 teens between the ages of 12 and 17.  The statistics serve as an approximation to the population parameter.

Inference based on hypothesis testing establishes if a claim has statistical significance by providing  statistical evidence in favor of the claim or against it.
