Answer:

$3X^{2} - 12X - 36 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

6 and - 2 are the only two solutions to the required quadratic equation.

So, if the variable is represented by X then (X - 6) and (X + 2) will be the only two factors of the polynomial function.

Therefore, the equation is

(X - 6)(X + 2) = 0

⇒ $X^{2} - 4X - 12 = 0$

If the leading coefficient of the equation is 3 then we can write the equation as $3X^{2} - 12X - 36 = 0$ (Answer)

The area of a rectangular rug is given by the trinomial r^2-4r-77. What are the possible dimensions of the rug? Use factoring.

Softa [21]

When you factor the equation...

r^2-4r-77

r^2+7r-11r-77

r(r+7)-11(r+7)

(r-11)(r+7) so each parenthetical term is a dimension.

Note that r>11 though for any possible real solution.

A medical researcher wondered if there is a significant difference between the mean birth weight of boy and girl babies. Random

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

b) independent samples t-test

$t=\frac{(5.92 -5.74)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{1.88^2}{5}}+\frac{1.81^2}{5}}=0.154$

$p_v =2*P(t_{8}>0.154) =0.881$

So with the p value obtained and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the mean of the group 1 (boys) is NOT significantly different than the mean for the group 2 (Girls).

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of hypothesis on this case are:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 = \mu_2$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 \neq \mu_2$

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 -\mu_2\neq 0$

Our notation on this case :

$n_1 =5$ represent the sample size for group 1

$n_2 =5$ represent the sample size for group 2

We can calculate the mean and deviation for eaach group with the following formulas:

$\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

$s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

$\bar X_1 =5.92$ represent the sample mean for the group 1

$\bar X_2 =5.74$ represent the sample mean for the group 2

$s_1=1.88$ represent the sample standard deviation for group 1

$s_2=1.81$ represent the sample standard deviation for group 2

If we see the alternative hypothesis we see that we are conducting a bilateral test and with independnet samples t test.

b) independent samples t-test

The statistic is given by this formula:

$t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}}+\frac{S^2_2}{n_2}}$

And now we can calculate the statistic:

$t=\frac{(5.92 -5.74)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{1.88^2}{5}}+\frac{1.81^2}{5}}=0.154$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=5+5-2=8$

And now we can calculate the p value using the altenative hypothesis:

$p_v =2*P(t_{8}>0.154) =0.881$

So with the p value obtained and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the mean of the group 1 (boys) is NOT significantly different than the mean for the group 2 (Girls).

How much higher is 500 than -400 m

gogolik [260]

Answer:

900m

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is find the difference between the two measurements

500 - (-400)

Then, two negatives create a positive:

500 + 400

= 900
