Answer:

  x ≈ {-11.789, +0.501, 11.288}

Step-by-step explanation:

The cubic g(x) - f(x) = 0 has three real solutions. It can be rewritten as ...

  g(x)-f(x)=0\\\\0.03x^3-x+1-(3x-1)=0\\\\0.03x^3-4x+2=0

Since the solutions are irrational, they are best found using a spreadsheet or graphing calculator. My favorite graphing calculator shows the approximate solutions below.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

Your expression for f(x) is ambiguous in that many Brainly questions have the exponentiation indicator replaced by a blank: 3 x -1 often means 3^x -1 and sometimes means 3^(x-1). We have taken the expression at face value and have assumed it is a linear expression. If otherwise, the problem is basically worked the same way: write a function h(x) = g(x) - f(x) and look for solutions to h(x) = 0. Graphing can be useful.

Jason's mom drove at 100km/hr for a 160km trip.how much longer would the trip have taken if she had driven at 90km/hr
kondor19780726 [428]
We use the formule: t=S/v. So:
+ t1= 160/100 = 8/5 hrs = 5760''
+ t2= 160/90 = 16/9 hrs = 6400''

=> t2-t1= 6400 - 5760 = 640'' = 10'40''

Please help! I don't understand how to solve this problem
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Using the z-distribution, a sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

The margin of error is:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation for the population.

Assuming an uniform distribution, the standard deviation is given by:

S = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 0)^2}{12}} = 1.1547

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.95, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975, so the critical value is z = 1.96.

The sample size is found solving for n when the margin of error is of M = 0.006, hence:

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.006 = 1.96\frac{1.1547}{\sqrt{n}}

0.006\sqrt{n} = 1.96 \times 1.1547

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}\right)^2

n =  142,282.

A sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.
