Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation 2x2 + x - 1 = 2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + x - 1 = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2x² + x - 3 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = + 1

The factors are - 2 and + 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² - 2x + 3x - 3 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x - 1) + 3(x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (x - 1) from each term

(x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = - \frac{3}{2}

Use the correct function to find the missing angle y measurement to the
Doss [256]

Answer:

Cos;

26 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: SOH CAH TOA

Reference angle = y°

Adjacent side = 18 in.

Hypotenuse = 20 in.

We would apply the trigonometric function CAH since we are dealing with the Adjacent side (A) and the Hypotenuse (H). Thus:

Cos y° = Adj/Hyp

Cos y° = 18/20

Cos y° = 0.9

y° = cos^{-1}(0.9)

y = 25.8419328° ≈ 26 degrees (nearest whole degree)

The answers are:

Cos and 26 degrees

Rosetta wants to estimate the percentage of people who rent their home. She surveys 250 individuals and finds that 48 rent their
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

0.192 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.151

0.192 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.233

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

X= 48 number of people who rent their home

n= 250 represent the sample size

\hat p =\frac{48}{250}= 0.192 represent the proportion of people who rent their home

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.90=0.1 and \alpha/2 =0.05. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.645

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

If we replace the values obtained we got:

0.192 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.151

0.192 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.192(1-0.192)}{250}}=0.233
