Answer:

x = - 7, x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

x² + 8x + 7 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 7) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 7 and + 1 , since

7 × 1 = + 7 and 7 + 1 = + 8 , then

x² + 8x + 7 = 0

(x + 7)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Which similarity statement is true for the triangles shown?<br><br> - ABC = DEF<br> - ABC = FED
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

I’m pretty sure it’s Triangle ABC is congruent to Triangle DEF.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you rotate Triangle DEF to where the 90 degree angle is on the bottom right, you can the compare the two triangles. You can divide 300/25, 240/20, and 180/15. They all result in 12 meaning they are congruent and similar in that way. (I’m only 90% this is right btw)

The Report of the Presidential Commission on the Space Shuttle Challenger Accident in 1986 shows a plot of the calculated joint
laiz [17]

Answer:

NO, as per study, I cant see any other problem than the sample size in the procedure.

From the graph there is a slight quadratic relationship between temperature and number of O-rings.

As in the graph, we can see that above 50°F but below 55°F number of O-rings in 3 but after 55°F as temperature goes on increasing the number of O-rings decreases and remains constant up to 70°F and above 70°F the number of O-rings increases to 2. Hence, we can say that there is a relationship between temperature and number of O-rings.

If we want to fit a linear regression through these seven observations, the slope would be positive as linear regression line passes through the average.

Looking at the relationship, slope must be significantly different from zero as there is a relationship between two variables, where as slope significantly zero implies no relationship. However, we have only seven points so drawing a conclusion is difficult as the nature of the relationship is not clearly visualized by this graph.
