Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 intersecting chords, then the product of the parts of one chord is equal to the product of the parts of the other chord, that is

EB × AE = ED × CE

x(x + 1) = 3 × 2 = 6

x² + x = 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

x² + x - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 3)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

But x > 0 , then x = 2

F(x) = 2x2 + 12x + 1<br> Determine the vertex
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex would be the highest/lowest point so lets factor this first

when we factor we get

2(x^2+6x+8)

2(x+4) (x+2)

Using zero product property we find the 2 x values and x intercepts are

-4 and -2

the middle point of these points is -3

Substitute -3 for x and solve

2(-3+4) (-3+2)

2 * 1 *  -1

2*-1

-2

(-3,-2) is the vertex

A firm has the marginal-demand function where D(x)=-1400x÷√25-x² is the number of units sold at x dollars per unit. Find the dem
borishaifa [10]

The equation of the demand function is D(x) = 1400√(25-x²) + 11400

<h3>How to determine the demand function?</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Marginal demand function, D'(x) = -1400x÷√25-x²

Also, we have

D = 17000, when the value of x = 3

To start with, we need to integrate the marginal demand function, D'(x)

So, we have the following representation

D(x) = 1400√(25-x²) + C

Recall that

D = 17000 at x = 3

So, we have

17000 = 1400√(25-3²) + C

Evaluate

17000 = 5600 + C

Solve for C

C = 17000 - 5600

So, we have

C = 11400

Substitute C = 11400 in D(x) = 1400√(25-x²) + C

D(x) = 1400√(25-x²) + 11400

Hence, the function is D(x) = 1400√(25-x²) + 11400

For a binomial process, the probability of success is 40 percent and the number of trials is 5. Find the standard deviation.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=5, p=0.4)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

The mean for the binomial distribution is given by:

E(X) =np=5*0.4=2

And the variance is given by:

Var(X) = np(1-p) =5*0.4*(1-0.4)=1.2

And the deviation is just the square root of the variance so we got:

Sd(X) =\sqrt{1.2}=1.095
