Answer:

BC = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB = AC, then substituting values gives

4x + 1 = 2x + 23 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x + 1 = 23 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11

Hence

BC = 3x - 8 = (3 × 11) - 8 = 33 - 8 = 25

Solve the equation 2x^2+8x-1=o by completing the square. Give your answer to 2 decimal places
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ \ x=-4.12 \ or \ x=0.12 \ \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

step 1 - we divide all terms by 2

2x^2+8x-1=0  x^2+4x-\dfrac{1}{2}=0

step 2 - we complete the square

we can notice that

x^2+4x=(x+2)^2-4

so

2x^2+8x-1=0  x^2+4x-\dfrac{1}{2}=0(x+2)^2-4-\dfrac{1}{2}=0\\

step 3 - we move the constant term to the right of the equation

(x+2)^2-4-\dfrac{1}{2}=0\\\\ (x+2)^2=4+\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{8+1}{2}=\dfrac{9}{2}

step 4 - we take the square root on both sides of the equation

x+2=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{2}}

or

x+2=-\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{2}}

step 5 - we subtract 2 from both sides

x+2=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{2}} x=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}-2=0.12132...

or

x+2=-\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{2}} x=-\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}-2=-4.12132...

so the solutions are 0.12 and -4.12

hope this helps

What is the general form of the equation of the line shown?
OleMash [197]
I think the correct answer would be A. 3x+y-3=0
because if you were to change it to slope intercept form, it would be y=-3x+3, which would be the equation for the line on the graph.

In this experiment researchers randomly assigned smokers to treatments. Of the 193 smokers taking a placebo, 29 stopped smoking
mezya [45]

Answer:

The estimated standard error for the sampling distribution of differences in sample proportions is 0.0382.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the Central Limit Theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Subtraction of normal variables:

When we subtract normal variables, the mean is the subtraction of the means, while the standard error is the square root of the sum of the variances:

Of the 193 smokers taking a placebo, 29 stopped smoking by the 8th day.

This means that:

p_S = \frac{29}{193} = 0.1503

s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.1503*0.8497}{193}} = 0.0257

Of the 266 smokers taking only the antidepressant buproprion, 82 stopped smoking by the 8th day.

This means that:

p_A = \frac{82}{266} = 0.3083

s_A = \sqrt{\frac{0.3083*0.6917}{266}} = 0.0283

Calculate the estimated standard error for the sampling distribution of differences in sample proportions.

s = \sqrt{s_S^2 + s_A^2} = \sqrt{0.0257^2 + 0.0283^2} = 0.0382

The estimated standard error for the sampling distribution of differences in sample proportions is 0.0382.
