Answer:
i) P(X<33) = 0.9232
ii) P(X>26) = 0.001
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>
Given that the mean of the Population = 30
Given that the standard deviation of the Population = 4
Let 'X' be the Normal distribution
<u>Step(ii):-</u>
i)
Given that the random variable X = 33
>0
P(X<33) = P( Z<1.5)
= 1- P(Z>1.5)
= 1 - ( 0.5 - A(1.5))
= 0.5 + 0.4232
P(X<33) = 0.9232
<u>Step(iii) :-</u>
Given that the random variable X = 26
>0
P(X>26) = P( Z>3.5)
= 0.5 - A(3.5)
= 0.5 - 0.4990
= 0.001
P(X>26) = 0.001
Answer:
- x = -1/2(1 +√21) ≈ -2.79129
- x = -1/2(1 -√21) ≈ 1.79129
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the middle term is supposed to be 4x.
We can remove a common factor of 4 to simplify this a bit.
x^2 +x -5 = 0
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c = 0
where a=1, b=1, c=-5.
__
The <em>quadratic formula</em> gives the solutions as ...
Filling in the given coefficients, we have ...
x = (-1 ±√(1^2 -4·1·(-5)))/(2·1)
x = (-1±√21)/2
The solutions are x = -1/2(1 +√21) and -1/2(1 -√21).
_____
<em>If what you wrote is what you intend</em>, then the equation simplifies to 4x^2 -16 = 0.
Dividing by 4 and factoring the difference of squares gives ...
x^2 -4 = 0
(x -2)(x +2) = 0
These factors are zero (hence their product is 0) for the values x = 2 and x = -2.
The solutions are x=2 and x=-2.
