What is the intermediate step in the form (x+a)^2=b(x+a)

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The intermediate step are;

1) Separate the constants from the terms in x² and x

2) Divide the equation by the coefficient of x²

3) Add the constants that makes the expression in x² and x a perfect square and factorize the expression

Step-by-step explanation:

The function given in the question is 6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15

The intermediate steps in the to express the given function in the form (x + a)² = b are found as follows;

6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15

We get

1) Subtract 207 from both sides gives 6·x² + 48·x = 15 - 207 = -192

6·x² + 48·x = -192

2) Dividing by 6 x² + 8·x = -32

3) Add the constant that completes the square to both sides

x² + 8·x + 16 = -32 +16 = -16

x² + 8·x + 16 = -16

4) Factorize (x + 4)² = -16

5) Compare (x + 4)² = -16 which is in the form (x + a)² = b

Which best explains how you know that P(2, 7) is on the same line as Q(7, 4) and R(12, 1)?

Helen [10]

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

The best explanation is noticing that in order to get from the point R (12, 1) to the point Q (7, 4) we move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. And to go from point Q (7, 4) to point P (2, 7) we do exactly the same: move 5 units to the left and 3 units up. That means that these points are all connected via the same rate of change: - 3/5, which is in fact the slope of the line the three points belong to.

Assume that the empirical rule is a good model for the time it takes for all passengers to board an airplane. The mean time is 4

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The interval that describes how long it takes for passengers to board the middle 95% of the time is between 40.16 minutes and 55.84 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 48, \sigma = 4$ .
