Answer:

(-infinity, -1/2] and [3, infinity]  Let e know if anything didn't make sense.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to think about it is a graph is either at 0, greater than 0 or less than 0.  If you can find all of the zeroes  then you can test each zero by checking points before and after.  the graph will either cross and change signs, or stay the same.

So we want to find the zeroes.

Much like the factored form of a quadratic (x - a)(x - b) this inequality has two expressions  being multiplied together, so if you can find when they are 0 you will have all the zeros.  We shoudl also check when they do not exist just to be safe.

(x^2 - 3x) itself is a quadratic.  so lets find its zeroes.

x^2 - 3x

x(x - 3)

So the zeroes are 0 and 3.  lets find the zeroes of the other expression before checking signs.

sqrt(2x^2-3x-2) will be at 0 when the quadratic inside is at 0, and will not exist if the quadrati is negative, so let's look for both.  first the 0s.  I am going to complete the square

2x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0

2(x^2 - (3/2)x - 1) = 0

2[(x - 3/4)^2 - 25/16] = 0

2(x - 3/4)^2 - 25/8 = 0

2(x - 3/4)^2 = 25/8

(x - 3/4)^2 = 25/16

x - 3/4 = +/- 5/4

x = +/-5/4 + 3/4

x = -2/4 or 8/4

x = -1/2 or 2

Let me know if you couldn't follow that.  Anyway, using those zeroes we can tell 2x^2 - 3x - 2 is negative  between the two zeroes, since it is a parabola that opens upwards and crosses the x axis at those zeroes.  this means sqrt(2x^2 - 3x - 2) does not exist from x=-1/2 and x=2.  This means for the other zero above at x=0, the iequality will not exist.  So now we have 3 points to look at.

-1/2 for its first 0 and where it then stops existing up to 2, which is also a 0.  Finally 3 is the last 0.

at x=-1/2 all values before it are positive

x=2 has values immediately after it negative

x=3 then it switches so all values after that are positive since it is the last 0

Now we know that (x^2 - 3x) * sqrt(2x^2 - 3x - 2)is positive or equal to 0 along the intervals, (-infinity, -1/2] and [3, infinity]

At Brighton Middle School, Mr. Yule asked 50 randomly selected students from each grade level about their favorite subject, and
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Yes, he made a reasonable inference by saying about 25 percent of students choose the science.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Number of students for survey = 50

Number of students who choose science = 12

Now

Percentage of student who choose science = \frac{12}{50} x 100

Percentage of student who choose science = \frac{12*100}{50}

Percentage of student who choose science = 24 %

Now as Mr. Yule said "about 25" percent of students choose the science it can be treated as reasonable approximation.

Now if the number of students in survey become 200, then we can expect 12 out of every 50 students would choose the science. So, in total 48 students would choose the science.

Now lets calculate the percentage of students who choose science.

Percentage of student who choose science = \frac{48}{200} x 100

Percentage of student who choose science = \frac{48*100}{200}

Percentage of student who choose science = 24 %

Maria, age 28, wants to pay no more than $300 a year in life insurance. what is the face value of the largest 20-year term polic
shusha [124]

The face value of the largest 20-year term policy which Maria can buy without spending more than $300 annually is $158,000.

<h3>What is face value?</h3>

Face is the term used in finance, is used for the amount which has to be paid to the policyholder at the time of maturity.

Maria, age 28, wants to pay no more than $300 a year in life insurance.

The period for this policy is 20-year term.

Annual life insurance premium (per 1,000 dollars of face value) for age 28.

  • A 10-year term for female is 1.28,
  • A 15 year term for female is 1.54,
  • A 20 year term for female is 1.89,
  • A whole life for female is 9.46.

For the 20 year term for female is 1.89 and annular premium is $300. Thus, the face value is,

\rm Face \; Value=\dfrac{300}{1.89}\times1000\\\rm Face \; Value\approx158000

Thus, the face value of the largest 20-year term policy which Maria can buy without spending more than $300 annually is $158,000.
