Answer:

It is already in standard form. $2x^2-7x-15$ is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation (which this equation is since there is an $x^2$ term) is described as $ax^2+bx+c=0$ , where a≠0.

Pls HelP Me ASAP!~!~!~! Describe and correct the error |-13|-|13| =-13-13 =-26

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The error is that the question equals -13-13.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is absolute value, so anything inside of the bars is positive. Since the first -13 has bars around it it would be positive. But since the second - is outside of the 13 with bars, the 13 stays negative, so it would be 13-13. Hope this helps! :)

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is 0.3729.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is 0.1271.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is 0.1109.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is 0.745.

(e) The time is 5.65 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the mean length of time per call was 4.5 minutes and the standard deviation was 0.70 minutes.

Let X = the length of the calls, in minutes.

So, X ~ Normal( $\mu=4.5,\sigma^{2} =0.70^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean time = 4.5 minutes

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 0.7 minutes

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is given by = P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = P(X < 5.30 min) - P(X $\leq$ 4.50 min)

P(X < 5.30 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ < $\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z < 1.14) = 0.8729

P(X $\leq$ 4.50 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ $\leq$ $\frac{4.5-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ 0) = 0.50

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 and x = 0 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729 and 0.50 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.8729 - 0.50 = 0.3729.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is given by = P(X > 5.30 minutes)

P(X > 5.30 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ > $\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z > 1.14) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.14)

= 1 - 0.8729 = 0.1271

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(5.30 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X $\leq$ 5.30 min)

P(X < 6.00 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ < $\frac{6-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

P(X $\leq$ 5.30 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ $\leq$ $\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ 1.14) = 0.8729

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.8729 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.8729 = 0.1109.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(4.00 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X $\leq$ 4.00 min)

P(X < 6.00 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ < $\frac{6-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

P(X $\leq$ 4.00 min) = P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ $\leq$ $\frac{4.0-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -0.71) = 1 - P(Z < 0.71)

= 1 - 0.7612 = 0.2388

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 0.71 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.7612 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.2388 = 0.745.

(e) We have to find the time that represents the length of the longest (in duration) 5 percent of the calls, that means;

P(X > x) = 0.05 {where x is the required time}

P( $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ > $\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = 0.05

P(Z > $\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}$ ) = 0.05

Now, in the z table the critical value of x which represents the top 5% of the area is given as 1.645, that is;

$\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}=1.645$

${x-4.5}{}=1.645 \times 0.7$

x = 4.5 + 1.15 = 5.65 minutes.

SO, the time is 5.65 minutes.

Please answer both question fully.

BARSIC [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle measures:

a = x = z = 51° (as vertical angles and corresponding angles)
b = d = y = w = 180° - 51° = 129° (as supplementary angles and corresponding angles)

Supplementary angles for a linear pair and sum to 180°.

Examples are:

a and b or
a and d or
x and y etc.

Answer:

The answer is a well designed experiment.

Step-by-step explanation:

When possible, the best way to establish that an observed association is the result of a cause and effect relation is by means of - well designed experiment.

Cause and effect relation is a relation between events, where one is the result, due to the occurrence of others. A well designed experiment takes place when we consider the cause and effect of events.
