Answer: The two roots are x = 3/2 and x = -2
=========================================================
Explanation:
You have the right idea so far. But the two numbers should be 3 and -4 since
The -1 being the coefficient of the x term.
This means you need to change the -3x and 4x to 3x and -4x respectively. The other inner boxes are correct.
---------
Refer to the diagram below to see one way to fill out the box method, and that helps determine the factorization.
If we place a 2x to the left of -2x^2, then we need an -x up top because 2x*(-x) = -2x^2
Then based on that outer 2x, we need a -2 up top over the -4x. That way we get 2x*(-2) = -4x
So we have the factor -x-2 along the top
The last thing missing is the -3 to the left of 3x. Note how -3*(-x) = 3x in the left corner and -3*(-2) = 6 in the lower right corner.
We have the factor 2x-3 along the left side.
---------
The two factors are (2x-3) and (-x-2) which leads to the factorization (x+3)(-x+2)
The last thing to do is set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x
- 2x-3 = 0 solves to x = 3/2 = 1.5
- -x-2 = 0 solves to x = -2
The two roots are x = 3/2 and x = -2
Answer:
Part A: The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
Part B: The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have an hypothesis test with null and alternative hypothesis H0: p = 0.5 versus Ha: p > 0.5, which has the test statistic z=1.15.
Part A: If the significance level is 0.05, the conclusion depends on the P-value.
If the P-value is below 5%, the null hypothesis is rejected.
The P-value for this right-tailed tes and z=1.15 is:

The P-value is bigger than the significance level, so the effect is not significant and the null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.
Part B: In this case, the significance level is 0.01 and, as the alternative hypothesis is defined with an unequal sign, the test is two-tailed.
This changes the way we calculate the P-value, as we need to compute the two tails.
The P-value is:

The P-value is bigger than the significance level, so the effect is not significant and the null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.
