I'm not sure how you obtained -5 as your answer but this is the mathematical explanation. hope this helps!
${x}^{2} + 3x = 40 \\ {x}^{2} + 3x - 40 = 0 \\(x + 8)(x - 5) = 0 \\ x = - 8 \\ x = 5$

Which are the center and radius of the circle with equation (x + 5)2 + (y - 4)2 = 9?

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Center (-5,4) radius 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where the center is (h,k) and r is the radius

so h=-5 in this case and k is 4

r^2=9 so r=3

A manufacturing company produces parts that are good (90%), partially defective (2%), or completely defective (8%). These parts

Schach [20]

Answer:

The probability that a part is good given that it passed the inspection machine is P=0.978.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the inspection machine detect and discard any part that is completely defective, only the good and partially defective parts passed this inspection.

Then, if we have:

Probability of being a good part P(G)=0.90

Probability of being a patially defective part P(P)=0.02

Probability of being a completely defective part P(D)=0.08.

Probability of passing the inspection machine = 1-P(D)=1-0.08=0.92

Then, the probability of having a good part, given that it passed the inspection machine is:

$P(G|Pass)=P(G)/P(Pass)=0.90/0.92=0.978$
