Answer:

  n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

"By inspection" is an appropriate method.

We are asked to compare the expressions

  n·n

  8·n

and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. <em>By inspection</em>, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

__

More formally, we could write ...

  n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value

  n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form

  n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor

Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...

  n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0

  n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0

Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

__

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

student randomly receive 1 of 4 versions(A, B, C, D) of a math test. What is the probability that at least 3 of the 5 student te
alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the students receive different versions of the math namely A, B, C and D.

So, the probability that a student receives version A = \frac{1}{4}.

Thus, the probability that the student does not receive version A = 1-\frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}.

So, the possibilities that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A are,

1) 3 receives version A and 2 does not receive version A

2) 4 receives version A and 1 does not receive version A

3) All 5 students receive version A

Then the probability that at-least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is given by,

\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}

= (\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})^2+(\frac{1}{4})^4\times (\frac{3}{4})+(\frac{1}{4})^5

= (\frac{1}{4})^3\times (\frac{3}{4})[\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{1}{4})^2]

= (\frac{3}{4^4})[1+\frac{1}{16}]

= (\frac{3}{256})[\frac{17}{16}]

= 0.01171875 × 1.0625

= 0.01245

Thus, the probability that at least 3 out of 5 students receive version A is 0.0124

So, in percent the probability is 0.0124 × 100 = 1.24%

To the nearest tenth, the required probability is 1.2%.

To restaurants
spayn [35]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\mathrm{served \ a \ greater \ variety \ of \ ages}} \\ \\ \large \boxed{\mathrm{range}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Restaurant A <u>served a greater variety of ages</u> than Restaurant B, because the <u>range</u> of data for Restaurant A is greater than that of Restaurant B.

Range of a data set is the data spread.

Restaurant A is serving a greater variety of ages of people since it has a higher range than that of Restaurant B.
