A line contains the points (10,7) and (5,-8). Write the equation of the line.

Solve 3x^2=-12-6x by completing the square

Lelu [443]

Answer:

x = - 1 ± i $\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² = - 12 - 6x ( add 6x to both sides )

3x² + 6x = - 12 ( divide through by 3 )

x² + 2x = - 4

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(1)x + 1 = - 4 + 1

(x + 1)² = - 3 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 1 = ± $\sqrt{-3}$ = ± i $\sqrt{3}$ ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x = - 1 ± i $\sqrt{3}$

Masja [62]

Answer:

There is a 98.26% probability that it is overloaded.

This elevator does not appear to be safe.

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

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 170 lb, so $\mu = 170$

They have a standard deviation of standard deviation of 29 lb, so $\sigma = 29$ .

We have a sample of 8 adults, so we have to find the standard deviation of the sample to use in the place of $\sigma$ in the Z score formula.

$s = \frac{\sigma}{8} = \frac{29}{8} = 3.625$

Find the probability that it is overloaded because they have a mean weight greater than 162 lb, so $X = 162$

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{162 - 170}{3.625}$

$Z = -2.21$

$Z = -2.21$ has a pvalue 0.0174.

So, there is a 1-0.0174 = 0.9826 = 98.26% probability that it is overloaded.

Any probability that is above 95% is considerer unusually high. So, this elevator does not appear to be safe, since there is a 98.26% probability that it is overloaded.
