We have to find out the value of the fraction.
<u>Let us assume that:</u>

<u>We can also write it as:</u>




<u>Comparing </u>the given <u>equation</u> with <u>ax² + bx + c = 0,</u> we get:

<u>By quadratic formula:</u>







<u>But </u><u>"</u><u>x"</u><u> cannot be negative. Therefore:</u>

So, the value of the fraction is 1 + √2.
Answer: The 95% confidence interval is approximately (55.57, 58.43)
======================================================
Explanation:
At 95% confidence, the z critical value is about z = 1.960 which you find using a table or a calculator.
The sample size is n = 17
The sample mean is xbar = 57
The population standard deviation is sigma = 3
The lower bound of the confidence interval is
L = xbar - z*sigma/sqrt(n)
L = 57 - 1.960*3/sqrt(17)
L = 55.5738905247863
L = 55.57
The upper bound is
U = xbar + z*sigma/sqrt(n)
U = 57 + 1.960*3/sqrt(17)
U = 58.4261094752137
U = 58.43
Therefore the confidence interval (L, U) turns into (55.57, 58.43) which is approximate.
Answer:
b² = a² + c² - 2ac cos B
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine rule can be use when you are given three sides of a triangle and ask to find any angle or when you are given two sides and a included angles(the angle between the two sides given) and ask to find the length of a side.
The equation Sophia can use to solve for the side length(b) of a triangle when given two length and the included angle can be expressed below. Sophia was given two sides and an included angle and was asked to find a side length b.
For sides a, b and c the cosine rule can be represented below
a² = b² + c² - 2bc cos A
b² = a² + c² - 2ac cos B
c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos C
The equation required base on your question is
b² = a² + c² - 2ac cos B
