You probably are interested in expressing the given equation as a quadratic equation in u, as it will make it easy to find the solutions.
Let u = x²
So,
u² = x⁴
So, the given equation can be written as:
u² - 17u + 16 = 0
Now the equation is quadratic in u and the solutions can be calculated using quadratic formula or factorization.
Answer:
P(X is greater than 30) = 0.06
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Sample proportion (p) = 0.5
Sample size = 30
The Binomial can be approximated to normal with:
To find:
P(X> 30)
So far we are approximating a discrete Binomial distribution using the continuous normal distribution. 30 lies between 29.5 and 30.5
Normal distribution:
x = 30.5, 
= 25, 
= 3.536
Using the z test statistics;
z = 1.555
The p-value for P(X>30) = P(Z > 1.555)
The p-value for P(X>30) = 1 - P (Z< 1.555)
From the z tables;
P(X> 30) = 1 - 0.9400
Thus;
P(X is greater than 30) = 0.06
Answer:
The value for the original mean = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the original value of the mean.
Let the number of samples be n
Mathematically;
mean = Total value/n
Now, we added 8 to each of values; total value added = 8 * n = 8n
Now, for the new mean of 40; we have
(Total value + 8n)/n = 40
Total value + 8n = 40n
Total value = 40n -8n
Total value = 32n
kindly recall from the beginning of the solution;
mean = Total value/n
mean = 32n/n
mean = 32
So the original value of the mean is 32
The horizontal stretch is the correct answer. A period is the distance on the x-axis that it takes for the tangent or cotangent function to repeat itself. Stretching it out horizontally will lengthen that distance and therefore change the period.
1. 40
2. 43
its just like subtracting when you add a negative number to a positive one. flip them around! makes it a lot easier.
