Answer:

  +70 or -70, depending on how you rewrite the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation in standard form can be written as ...

  ax² +bx +c = 0

When this equation is written in standard form, it could be either of ...

  17x² +30x +40 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 17x²+30x to both sides

or

  -17x^2 -30x -40 = 0 . . . . . . . . . subtract 40 from both sides

__

In the first case, a = 17, b = 30, c = 40 and (b+c) = 70.

In the second case, a = -17, b = -17, c = -40 and (b+c) = -70.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

I personally prefer a positive leading coefficient, but it is less work to subtract 40 from both sides than to subtract 2 terms from both sides. Check your curriculum materials for the preferred rewrite in this case.

Use the table of systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) in each arm
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval would be given by (63.330;81.070)

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Let put some notation

x=left arm , y = right arm

x: 175 169 182 146 144

y: 102 101 94 79 79

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of a = 0.1 and a/2= 0.05we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.05,4)".And we see that ta/2= 2.13
