When asked to factor the x^2-121 a student gives the answer (x-11)(x-11) what is wron with this answer?

Art [367]

Given expression is x² - 121

This is called Difference of Squared terms, we have a formula that is given as :-

a² - b² = (a - b) · (a + b)

Now using the above formula in the given expression, we get :-

x² - 121

x² - (11)²

here a = x and b = 11

x² - (11)² = (x - 11) · (x + 11)

but it says that student gave the answer as (x - 11) · (x - 11).

So, student's answer should be (x - 11) · (x + 11) instead of product of two (x - 11) terms.

Solve (x + 1)2 – 4(x + 1) + 2 = 0 using substitution.

solniwko [45]

For this case we have to:

Let $u = x + 1$

So:

$u ^ 2-4u + 2 = 0$

We have the solution will be given by:

$u = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2 (a)}$

Where:

$a = 1\\b = -4\\c = 2$

Substituting:

$u = \frac {- (- 4) \pm \sqrt {(- 4) ^ 2-4 (1) (2)}} {2 (1)}\\u = \frac {4 \pm \sqrt {16-8}} {2}\\u = \frac {4 \pm \sqrt {8}} {2}\\u = \frac {4 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2 * 2}} {2}\\u = \frac {4 \pm2 \sqrt {2}} {2}$

The solutions are:

$u_ {1} = \frac {4 + 2 \sqrt {2}} {2} = 2 + \sqrt {2}\\u_ {2} = \frac {4-2 \sqrt {2}} {2} = 2- \sqrt {2}$

Returning the change:

$2+ \sqrt {2} = x_ {1} +1\\x_ {1} = 1 + \sqrt {2}\\2- \sqrt {2} = x_ {2} +1\\x_ {2} = 1- \sqrt {2}$

Answer:

$x_ {1} = 1 + \sqrt {2}\\x_ {2} = 1- \sqrt {2}$

The defect length of a corrosion defect in a pressurized steel pipe is normally distributed with mean value 30 mm and standard d

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$z=-0.842$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=30 -0.842*7.8=23.432$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 23.432.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(30,7.8)$

Where $\mu=30$ and $\sigma=7.8$

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.80$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.20 of the area on the left and 0.80 of the area on the right it's z=-0.842

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=-0.842$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=30 -0.842*7.8=23.432$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 23.432.

Answer:

trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

parallelograms require two sets of parallel lines while trapezoids do not, only requiring one set. it is possible to get a trapezoid with 2 90 degree angles.
