Assuming you are speaking of the Real Numbers…

x^2+66=14x+15

x^2 - 14x + ?? = -51

x^2 - 14x + (half of -14 squared) = -51 + (half of -14 squared)

x^2 - 14x + 49 = -51 + 49

(x - 7)^2 = -2

By the way, in the real number system, you can’t square any number and get a negative so the above equation has no solution. If you allowed for complex solutions…there would be two of those.

SM=3x−4, and RN=9x−20. Find the value of x
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Option (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; find the complete question with the attachment.

In the triangle NRL,

Points P, S and M are the midpoints of the sides NR, RL and LN respectively.

Sides SM = (3x - 4), NR = (9x - 20)

By the theorem of midpoints in a triangle,

SM = \frac{1}{2}\text{NR}

(3x - 4) = \frac{1}{2}(9x-20)

6x - 8 = 9x - 20

9x - 6x = 20 - 8

3x = 12

x = 4

Therefore, Option (A) will be the answer.

The Quality Control Department employs five technicians during the day shift Listed below is the number of times each technician
frutty [35]

Solution :

Number of different samples of two technicians possible is = 10, as 2 technicians are to be chosen from a total of 5 technicians.

a). Therefore, 10 different samples are possible of size two.

b).

<u>         Sample                    Shut down         Mean</u>

1. Taylor, Hurley                 4, 3                    3.5

2. Taylor, Gupta                 4, 5                    4.5

3. Taylor, Rousche             4,6                      5

4. Taylor, Huang                4, 3                    3.5

5. Hurley, Gupta                 3,5                       4

6. Hurley, Rousche             3,6                      4.5

7. Hurley, Huang                 3,3                       3

8. Gupta, Rousche              5,6                       5.5

9. Gupta, Huang                  5,3                       4

10. Rousche, Huang            6,3                   <u>    4.5   </u>

                                                                        42

Now mean of sample means  $=\frac{42}{10}$    = 4.2

Mean of population is = $\frac{4+3+5+6+3}{5}$    = 4.2

Thus both the means are equal.
