Explain the connection between factors, solutions, and x-intercepts.

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

Factors can be set to zero in order to find the solutions, which are the x-intercepts on a graph.

ex:

x^2 + 4x - 4

(x + 2)(x + 2)

x+2=0

x=-2

x+2=0

x=-2

-2 would be the only x-intercept on the graph.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, thank you

A similarity ratio is the ratio of the lengths
kow [346]
Similarity ratio is a ratio of two figures having the same side.

Ratio can be rate but rate can never be ratio. In essence, rate is comparison between ratios.  While ratio is comparison between two or more numbers. Further, ratio on one hand, involves numbers either in amount, size, measurement, degrees, percentages or fractions with the absence of specific unit of measurement. On the contrary, rate is comparing quantities, amounts or unit of events happened expressed in a specific measurement or expressed under time. Take for instance, an example, Joe eats 2 while John eats 4 meals in a day. The ratio can be Joe: John, 2:4 meals. While the rate, is Joe eats 2 meals/day and John 4 meals/day.<span>

Evelyn wants to estimate the percentage of people who own a tablet computer she surveys 150 indvidals and finds that 120 own a t
igomit [66]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of people who own a tablet computer is between 71.59% and 88.41%

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the proportion of people who own a tablet:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 150, \pi = \frac{120}{150} = 0.8

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.576.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{150}} = 0.7159

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{150}} = 0.8841

Percentage:

Multiply the proportion by 100.

0.7159*100 = 71.59%

0.8841*100 = 88.41%

The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of people who own a tablet computer is between 71.59% and 88.41%

Aisha wants to paint the four walls of her living room.
sergiy2304 [10]

The total amount Aisha would pay to paint her room is $54.

<h3>What is the cost of painting the rooms?</h3>

The first step is to determine the area of the walls. The walls have the shape of a rectangle. Thus, the formula for the area of a rectangle would be used to determine the area of the wall.

Area of the three walls without a door : 3 x (length x width)

3 x (2.4 x 5.2) = 37.44 m²

Area of the fourth wall with a door : area of the wall - area of the door

(2.4 x 5.2) - (2 x 0.8) = 10.88m²

Total area of the walls : area of the three walls + area of the wall with the door

10.88m² + 37.44 m² = 48.32 m²

The next step is to determine the number of tins that would be needed:

48.32 /12 = 4.03

5 tins would needed

Cost of the 5 tins: (4 x 12) + (0.5 x 12) = $54
