This polynomial is a difference of two squares.
A difference of two squares factors into the product of a sum and a difference.
Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3x = 52
Add all common variables
4x = 52
Divide both sides by 4
x = 13
Answer:
Roland is right, he can be 95% sure that average gas prices have gone up since the same time last year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let μ be average gas price around Syracuse.
Then hypotheses are:
μ = $2.68
μ > $2.68
Then test statistic can be calculated as:
z=
where
- X is the Roland's calculated average gas prices of 50 gas stations ($2.74)
- M is the average average gas prices in the entire of Syracuse last year
- s is the standard deviation ($0.11)
Then z=
≈ 3.86
Since P-value of test statistic ≈ 0.00006 <0.05 (significance level), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Answer:
0.321, 0.32...(Line means it is repeated), 2.52, 2.5...
