Answer:   v = -3

=========================================

Work Shown:

5 = \sqrt{-2-6v}+1\\\\5-1 = \sqrt{-2-6v}\\\\4 = \sqrt{-2-6v}\\\\4^2 = \left(\sqrt{-2-6v}\right)^2 \ \text{ .... square both sides}\\\\16 = -2-6v\\\\16+2 = -6v\\\\18 = -6v\\\\-6v = 18\\\\v = 18 \div (-6)\\\\v = -3

As you can see, we don't square both sides until the square root portion is fully isolated or on its own side. So it happens after we subtract 1 from both sides.

Technically, you are able to square both sides without first isolating the square root. But that would mean you'd have to use the FOIL rule and things would get a bit messier than they have to be. Not to mention that the square root term wouldn't fully go away (so you'd have to square again later down the line).

------------------

Checking the answer:

Replace every copy of v with -3. Simplify both sides. We should end up with the same number on each side

5 = \sqrt{-2-6v}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{-2-6(-3)}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{-2+18}+1\\\\5 = \sqrt{16}+1\\\\5 = 4+1\\\\5 = 5\\\\

The answer is confirmed.

Answer:

a) \frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{20.09} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{1.65}

363.90 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 4430.80

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

19.08 \leq \sigma \leq 66.56

b) For this case we are 98% confidence that the true deviation for the population of interest is between 19.08 and 66.56

Step-by-step explanation:

423.6, 487.3, 453.2, 402.9, 483.0, 477.7, 442.3, 418.4, 459.0

Part a

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^8 (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
And in order to find the sample mean we just need to use this formula:
[tex]\bar x =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}

The sample deviation for this case is s=30.23

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=9-1=8

The Confidence interval is 0.98 or 98%, the value of \alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2 =0.01, and the critical values are:

\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=20.09

\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=1.65

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

\frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{20.09} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(8)(30.23)^2}{1.65}

363.90 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 4430.80

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

19.08 \leq \sigma \leq 66.56

Part b

For this case we are 98% confidence that the true deviation for the population of interest is between 19.08 and 66.56

HELP ME <br> solve for the right triangle
VikaD [51]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine and tangent ratios in the right triangle

cos41° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{VW}{VX} = \frac{7}{VX}

Multiply both sides by VX

VX × cos41° = 7 ( divide both sides by cos41° )

VX = \frac{7}{cos41} ≈ 9.3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

tan41° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{WX}{VW} = \frac{WX}{7}

Multiply both sides by 7

7 × tan41° = WX, thus

WX ≈ 6.1

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the given angles from 180° for ∠ X

∠ X = 180° - (90 + 41)° = 180° - 131° = 49°
