Find the estimates of x^2-x-2=3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Julli [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=\frac{1+\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx 2.79\\or\ x=\frac{1-\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx -1.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadratic equation is

x^2-x-2=3\\x^2-x-5=0

Roots of the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 are

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\

So, for the given equation roots are

x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(1)(-5)}}{2\cdot 1}\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{21}}{2}\\so, x=\frac{1+\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx 2.79\\or\ x=\frac{1-\sqrt{21}}{2}\approx -1.79

Find each of the following for ​
KATRIN_1 [288]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a)

          f(x+ h)=8x+8h+3  

(b)

            f(x+ h)-f(x)=8h          

(c)

             \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=8

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as :

              f(x)=8x+3

(a)

           f(x+ h)

We will substitute (x+h) in place of x in the function f(x) as follows:

f(x+h)=8(x+h)+3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=8x+8h+3

(b)

       f(x+ h)-f(x)              

Now on subtracting the f(x+h) obtained in part (a) with the function f(x) we have:

f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-(8x+3)\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-8x-3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8h

(c)

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}            

In this part we will divide the numerator expression which is obtained in part (b) by h to get:

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{8h}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=8

The weights of 67 randomly selected axles were found to have a variance of 3.85. Construct the 80% confidence interval for the p
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

3.13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 67

Variance = 3.85

We have to find 80% confidence interval for the population variance of the weights.

Degree of freedom = 67 - 1 = 66

Level of significance = 0.2

Chi square critical value for lower tail =

\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}= 51.770

Chi square critical value for upper tail =

\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}= 81.085

80% confidence interval:

\dfrac{(n-1)S^2}{\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}} < \sigma^2 < \dfrac{(n-1)S^2}{\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}}

Putting values, we get,

=\dfrac{(67-1)3.85}{81.085} < \sigma^2 < \dfrac{(67-1)3.85}{51.770}\\\\=3.13

Thus, (3.13,4.91) is the required 80% confidence interval for the population variance of the weights.

Aleks [24]
<h2>Question:</h2>

1) It's February and you go to the store to buy some food for your pets. You have a Great

Dane and a Savannah cat. The Dane eats 3 times as much as your cat so his food

cost $60 for the big bag and he eats that in one week. The Savannah cats food cost

$15 a bag and it lasts him one week as well. You are there to buy food for the month

and have no more than $300 total to spend. Can you afford a month's worth of food?

a) If you bought the cat 6 weeks worth of food, how many weeks worth can you

buy your Great Dane?
