You can't factor it.

Answer:

(x - 2)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x + 8

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 6)

The factors are - 2 and - 4, since

- 2 × - 4 = + 8 and - 2 - 4 = - 6, then

x² - 6x + 8 = (x - 2)x - 4) ← in factored form

A quadratic function passes through the points ( − 5 , − 8 ) and ( 8 , − 8 ) . Find the equation for the line (axis) of symmetry
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The equation for the axis of symmetry is x=1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a quadratic function passes through the points ( − 5 , − 8 ) and ( 8 , − 8 ) .

In the given points y-coordinates are same, i.e., -8. It means both the points lie on the horizontal line y=-8.

If a quadratic function passes through two points (a,c) and (b,c), then the equation for the axis of symmetry is

x=\frac{a+b}{2}

According to the given points a=-5, b=8 and c=-8. Put these value in the above formula.

x=\frac{-5+8}{2}

x=\frac{3}{2}

x=1.5

Therefore the equation for the axis of symmetry is x=1.5.

The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15. The shape of the population is unknown. Determine the probabili
Lena [83]

Answer:

a) 0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.

b) 0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.

c) 0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

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.

The mean of a population is 74 and the standard deviation is 15.

This means that \mu = 74, \sigma = 15

Question a:

Sample of 36 means that n = 36, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{36}} = 2.5

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 78. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{78 - 74}{2.5}

Z = 1.6

Z = 1.6 has a pvalue of 0.9452

1 - 0.9452 = 0.0548

0.0548 = 5.48% probability of a random sample of size 36 yielding a sample mean of 78 or more.

Question b:

Sample of 150 means that n = 150, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{150}} = 1.2247

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 77 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 71. So

X = 77

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{77 - 74}{1.2274}

Z = 2.45

Z = 2.45 has a pvalue of 0.9929

X = 71

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{71 - 74}{1.2274}

Z = -2.45

Z = -2.45 has a pvalue of 0.0071

0.9929 - 0.0071 = 0.9858

0.9858 = 98.58% probability of a random sample of size 150 yielding a sample mean of between 71 and 77.

c. A random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

Sample size of 219 means that n = 219, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{219}} = 1.0136

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 74.2. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{74.2 - 74}{1.0136}

Z = 0.2

Z = 0.2 has a pvalue of 0.5793

0.5793 = 57.93% probability of a random sample of size 219 yielding a sample mean of less than 74.2

A cylindrical water bottle has a diameter of 5 in. and a height of 9 in. What is the capacity of the water bottle in cubic inche
VikaD [51]
The answer will be 388.6 because you will use the formula V=pi.r^2.h.
pi we know is 3.14 we also know that radius is half the diameter so half of 5 is 2.5 and the height is 9 so here is what we have so far. V=3.14x2.5^2x9.
2.5x2.5=13.75 13.75x3.14=43.175 43.175x9=388.575 and if we round that it will be 388.6 so your answer is 388.6

Ian owns a small business selling used books. He knows that in the last week 19
Softa [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

last week there were 19+30+77 = 126 customers.

19/126 = 1/14 paid cash.

30/126 = 5/21 paid by debit card.

77/126 = 11/18 paid by credit card.

next week he expects 1800 customers.

that is compared to 126 a factor of

1800/126 = 300/21 = 100/7

now we actually only need to apply the same factor to any part of the total sum to get their share in the new total sum.

it simply follows the rule

(a + b + c) × d = ad + bd + cd

so,

77 × 100/7 = 11 × 100 = 1100 customers are expected to pay per credit card.
