the sum of four times a number and eight is between zero and twelve. find the range of numbers. write a compound inequality.

1 answer:

6 0

Let the number be the variable x

4 times the number is 4x

the sum of 8 and 4 times a number is 28

4x+8=28

4x=28-8

4x=20

x=20/4

x=5

Find the solutions of the quadratic equation 14x^2+9x+10=014x

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Option B. $x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$14x^{2}+9x+10=0$

$a=14\\b=9\\c=10$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{9^{2}-4(14)(10)}} {2(14)}$

$x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{-479}} {28}$

Remember that

$i=\sqrt{-1}$

substitute

$x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{479}i} {28}$

$x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i$

For women aged 19-24, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally distributed with a mean of 114.8 and a standard deviation

Mrac [35]

Answer: p = 0.00714

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population standard deviation of the distribution is known, the z test ( which produces the z score) is the perfect test for finding the probability of the data set in the question.

From the question,

Population mean (u) = 114.8

Sample mean (x) = 121.5

Population standard deviation (σ) = 13.1

Sample size (n) = 23

The z score formulae is given below as

Z = x - u/σ/√n

Z = 121.5 - 114.8/(13.1/√23)

Z = 6.7/(13.1/√23)

Z = 6.7/2.731

Z = 2.45.

The question is interested in knowing the probability of mean systolic blood pressure greater than 121.5.

This implies that we are looking for the probability at which our z score is greater than 2.45: P(z>2.45)

The z score (z=2.45) has divided the distribution into two regions, z< 2.45 ( area to the left of the distribution) and z>2.45 ( area to the right of distribution).

Hence, p(z>2.45) + p(z<2.45) = 1

To get a the probability, we have to use a standard normal distribution table.

The table we have here gives probability of the distribution to the left ( that's area towards the left), hence we need to find p(z<2.45) first

From the table p(z<2.45) = 0.99286

But p(z>2.45) = 1 - p(z<2.45)

p(z>2.45) = 1 - 0.99286

p(z>2.45) = 0.00714

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH GRAPHING THIS? AND PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW TO GRAPH IT

vaieri [72.5K]

The dashed line is because the sign is greater than to be a solid line it has to be equal to or greater than and to the shading means any point on there works for the equation easiest way to test where you should shade is by plugging into the equation the point (0,0)
