Mathematics
1 answer:
lesya692 [45]4 years ago

Answer:

B:  x=-5  and x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= x^2 + x -20

To find the zeros we replace f(x) with 0

0= x^2 + x -20

now we solve for x

LEts factor x^2 + x -20

sum is +1  and product is -20

5 * (-4)= -20

5 + (-4) = +1

x^2 + 5x - 4x - 20 = 0

(x^2 + 5x)+(- 4x - 20) = 0

x(x+5) -4 (x+5) = 0

(x-4)(x+5)=0

Set each factor =0 and solve for x

x- 4 =0 so x=4

x+5 =0 so x=-5

x=-5  and x=4

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE WRITE A EQUATION OF THIS LINE!!
serious [3.7K]

Answer (<u>assuming it can be in slope-intercept form)</u>:

y = -x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When knowing the slope of a line and its y-intercept, you can write an equation to represent it in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format. Substitute the m and b for real values.

1) First, find the slope of the equation, or m. Pick any two points from the line and substitute their x and y values into the slope formula, m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. I chose the points (0, -1) and (-1, 0):

m = \frac{(0)-(-1)}{(-1)-(0)} \\m = \frac{0+1}{-1-0} \\m = \frac{1}{-1} \\m = -1

Thus, the slope is -1.

2) Now, find the y-intercept, or b. The y-intercept of a line is the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. By reading the graph, we can see that the line intersects the y-axis at the point (0,-1), therefore that must be the y-intercept.  

3) Now, substitute the found values into the y = mx + b formula. Substitute -1 for m and -1 for b:

y = -x  -1

drug sniffing dogs must be 95% accurate in their responses because their handlers don't want them to miss durgs and also don't w
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

95% Confidence interval:  (0.8449,0.9951)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 50

Number of times the dog is right, x = 46

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{46}{50} = 0.92

95% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

Putting the values, we get:

0.92 \pm 1.96(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.92(1-0.92)}{50}})\\\\ = 0.92\pm 0.0751\\\\=(0.8449,0.9951)

(0.8449,0.9951) is the required 95% confidence interval for the proportion of times the dog will be correct.
