Hello,

y=x²-x-2=x²-2*1/2*x+1/4-2-1/4=(x-1/2)²-9/4

1. Vertex=(1/2,-9/4)
2. if x=0 then y=0²-0-2=-2
3.The roots:
x²-x-2=0
==>(x-1/2)²-9/4=0
==>(x-1/2-3/2)(x-1/2+3/2)=0
==>(x-2)(x+1)=0
x=2 or x=-1

4. axe of symmetry: x=1/2

According to a random sample taken at 12 A.M., body temperatures of healthy adults have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean o

Chebyshev’s Theorem establishes that at least 1 - 1/k² of the population lie among k standard deviations from the mean.

This means that for k = 2, 1 - 1/4 = 0.75. In other words, 75% of the total population would be the percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures that are within 2standard deviations of the mean.

The maximum value of that range would be simply μ + 2s, where μ is the mean and s the standard deviation. In the same way, the minimum value would be μ - 2s:

maximum = μ + 2s = 98.16˚F + 2*0.56˚F = 99.28˚F

minimum = μ - 2s = 98.16˚F - 2*0.56˚F = 97.04˚F

In summary, at least 75% of the amount of healthy adults have a body temperature within 2 standard deviations of 98.16˚F, that is to say, a body temperature between 97.04˚F and 99.28˚F.

Solve the equation identify extraneous solutions

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal to solving any equation is to have x = {something}. That means we need to get the x out from underneath that radical. It's a square root, so we can "undo" it by squaring. Square both sides because this is an equation. Squaring both sides gives you

$x^2=-3x+40$

Get everything on one side of the equals sign and set the quadratic equal to 0:

$x^2+3x-40=0$

Throw this into the quadratic formula to get that the solutions are x = 5 and -8. We need to see if only one works, both work, or neither work in the original equation.

Does $5=\sqrt{-3(5)+40}$ ?
