Answer:
The sum of reciprocals is 2/3.
You don't need complex numbers to solve this, but if you try to find a and b you will need complex numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b = 2
a*b = 3
1/a + 1/b = x
(a*b)*(1/a + 1/b) = (a*b)x
b + a = (a*b)(x)
2 = 3x
x = 2/3
b = 2 - a
a*(2 - a) = 3
-a^2 + 2a = 3
-a^2 + 2a - 3 = 0
a^2 - 2a + 3 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
a^2 - 2a + 3 = a^2 - 2a + 1 + 2 = (a - 1)^2 + 2 = 0
(a - 1)^2 = -2
these options correspond to a and b from the original question.
Answer:
The probability that 75% or more of the women in the sample have been on a diet is 0.037.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of college women on a diet.
The probability of a woman being on diet is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.70.
The sample of women selected is, <em>n</em> = 267.
The random variable thus follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 267 and <em>p</em> = 0.70.
As the sample size is large (n > 30), according to the Central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportions () follows a Normal distribution.
The mean of this distribution is:
The standard deviation of this distribution is:
Compute the probability that 75% or more of the women in the sample have been on a diet as follows:
**Use the <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that 75% or more of the women in the sample have been on a diet is 0.037.
