What 2 numbers add to get 2 and multiply to 4

Mathematics
1 answer:
rusak2 [61]3 years ago
6 0
Factor 4
4=1 times 4
2 times 2
they don't add to 2
set up equation
x+y=2
xy=4

first equation, subtract x from both sides
y=2-x
subsitute for y
x(2-x)=4
distribute
2x-x^2=4
add x^2
2x=x^2+4
subtract 2x
0=x^2-2x+4
use quadratic formula which is
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0 then
x=\frac{ -b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} so

1x^2-2x+4=0
a=1
b=-2
c=4
x=\frac{ -(-2)+/-\sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(4)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{ 2+/-\sqrt{4-16} }{2}
x=\frac{ 2+/-\sqrt{-12} }{2}
we have \sqrt{-12} and that doesn't give a real solution
therefor there are no real solutions
but if you want to solve fully
x=\frac{ 2+/-2\sqrt{-3} }{2}
i=\sqrt{-1}
x=\frac{ 2+/-2i\sqrt{3} }{2}
x=1+/-i\sqrt{3}
x=1-i\sqrt{3} or x=1+i\sqrt{3} (those are the 2 numbers)

There are two spinners. The first spinner has three equal sectors labeled 1, 2 and 3. The second spinner has four equal sectors
sladkih [1.3K]
Given that the first spinner has three equal sectors labelled 1, 2 and 3; and the second spinner has equal sectors labelled 3, 4, 5 and 6.

The number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner is 2 (i.e. the first spinner shows 2 or 3).

The number of possible outcomes that the second spinner show the number 4 is 1 (i.e. the second spinner shows 4)

In probability, the word 'and' goes with multiplication.

Therefore, <span>the number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner and show the number 4 on the second spinner</span> is given by 2 x 1 = 2 possible outcomes.

i.e. the first spinner shows the number 2 and the second spinner shows the number 4 or the first spinner shows the number 3 and the second spinner shows the number 4.

Out of a sample 650 high school students, 321 take the bus to school every day. construct a 99% confidence interval for the popu
gtnhenbr [62]

A 99% confidence interval for the population mean of high school students that take the bus to school every day is b) ci=(44.34%, 54.43%)

We need to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean of high school students that take the bus to school everyday

A confidence interval is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter. The confidence interval is calculated at the specified confidence level; the most common is the 95% confidence level, but sometimes other levels are used, such as 90% or 99%.

The confidence interval of proportions is given by:

π ± z √(π (1-π) /n)

π is the sample proportion.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

For 99% confidence interval the value of z is 2.58

π = 321/650

The confidence interval is given by

=321/650 ± 2.58 √( (321/650) × [ 1 - (321/650) ] ÷ 650)

= (0.493846 ± 0.050594)

=(0.4434 , 0.5443)

=(44.34 % , 54.43 %)

Hence a 99% confidence interval for the population mean of high school students that take the bus to school every day is ci=(44.34%, 54.43%)
