Solve each prportion. (2/y-4)=(y+3/4)

vampirchik [111]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = 5, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve proportions you cross-multiply.

\frac{2}{y-4} =\frac{y+3}{4} \rightarrow 2\times4 = (y-4)\times(y+3) \rightarrow 8=y^2-y-12

Now that we have 8 = y^2 - y - 12, we must make the entire trinomial equal to 0 by subtracting 8 from both sides.

y^2 - y - 20 = 0

Factor the trinomial.

(y - 5)(y + 4) = 0

Make both factors equal to 0 to solve for both values of y.

  • y - 5 = 0 --> y = 5
  • y + 4 = 0 --> y = -4

y = 5, -4

Find all the square roots of x2 ≡ 53 (mod 77)
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

x=\pm\sqrt{77n+53}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equivalence equation x^2\equiv 53\text{ (mod } 77). We are asked to find all the square root of the given equivalence equation.

Upon converting our given equivalence equation into an equation, we will get:

x^2-53=77n

Add 53 on both sides:

x^2-53+53=77n+53

x^2=77n+53

Take square root of both sides:

x=\pm\sqrt{77n+53}

Therefore, the square root for our given equation would be x=\pm\sqrt{77n+53}.

A publisher reports that 54% of their readers own a particular make of car. A marketing executive wants to test the claim that t
dalvyx [7]

Answer and explanation:

Null hypothesis: p is not 54%

Alternative hypothesis : p is equal 54%

First find standard deviation

Standard deviation is:

σ = √[ P ( 1 - P ) / n ] = √[ 0.54×0.46/220 ] =0.033

The z score is calculated p-P/σ = (0.54-0.50)/0.033 = 1.2121

Therefore we can conclude that proportions are not same and fail to reject the null hypothesis
