Mathematicians 4: Who is Who?

Mathematics
1 answer:
larisa86 [58]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a. x = -9 or x = -2

b. -5(x - 4)

c. x = -3 or x = 5

d. x = ±7

Step-by-step explanation:

a. First person;

y = x² + 11x + 18

y = x² + 9x + 2x + 18

y = x(x + 9) + 2(x + 9)

y = (x + 9)(x + 2)

y = x = -9 or x = -2

b. Second person;

y = -5x + 20

The common factor is 5.

y = -5(x - 4)

c. Third person;

y = x² - 2x - 15

y = x² - 5x + 3x - 15

y = x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5)

y = (x + 3)(x - 5)

y = x = -3 or x = 5

d. Fourth person;

y = x² - 49

Applying the difference of squares formula;

(a² - b²) = (a - b)(a + b)

y = x² - 49 = x² - 7² = (x - 7)(x + 7)

y = (x - 7)(x + 7)

y = x = ±7

What is not a pair of equivalent fractions for 5/8 and 1/2
n200080 [17]
Two fractions equivalent to each: Just divide or multiply both top AND bottom by the same number.<span>
5/6: 10/12 OR 15/18 
15/30: 5/10 OR 1/2 
45/60: 8/12 OR 4/6 

Rewrite each pair or fractions with common denominator: Find the difference between the two bottom numbers, and multiply top and bottom number. 

5/8 and 3/4: 4X2=8, 3X2=6. So, 5/8 and 6/8. 
2/5 and 1/2: 2/5 and 2.5/5 
9/9 and 5/7: 9/9 and ~5.7/9 

Rewrite each in simple form: Find greatest common factor and divide. 

9/54: 1/6 
20/40: 1/2 
100/110: 10/11 

Are these fractions equivalent? 
No. 5/1 and 5/5 are, because they are both 5 wholes. 1/5 is not because it is a fifth of a whole. 


In what situation can you use multiplication to find equivalent fractions? 
I'm sorry but I do not understand this question.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

0.08065

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a recent study,1 2006 randomly selected US adults (age 18 or older) were asked to give the number of people in the last six months with whom you discussed matters that are important to you.

If X is random variable then X has mean 2.2 and s = 1.4

n=2006

Std error of mean =\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{2006} } \\=0.03126

For 99% since sample size is large, t and z distn almost coincide.

Hence we can take 2.58 as critical value

Margin of error at 99% =2.58*0.03126\\=0.08065
