<span>The variance method is as follows.

-Sum the squares of the values in data set, and then divide by the number of values in data set
- From that, subtract the square of the mean (add all values and divide by number of values in the data set)

Our variance is

<span>\displaystyle\sigma^2 = \frac{2^2 + 5^2 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{2 + 5 + m}{3}\right)^2

Since variance has to be 14, we set \sigma^2  = 14 and solve for m

14= \frac{4 + 25 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{7 + m}{3}\right)^2\ \Rightarrow \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(7+m)^2 \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(49 + 14m + m^2) \\ \\&#10;14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{49}{9}- \frac{14}{9}m- \frac{1}{9}m^2 \\ \\&#10;0 = \frac{-88}{9}  -\frac{14}{9}m + \frac{2}{9}m^2&#10;

quadratic formula


m = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\&#10;m = \frac{-(-\frac{14}{9}) \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 - 4(2/9)(-88/9)} }{2(2/9)} \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{196}{81} + \frac{704}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{900}{81}  } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{100}{9}  } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \frac{10}{3}  }{\frac{4}{9} } \\&#10;m = 11, -4

-4 doesnt' work as it is not a positive integer

m = 11

Simplify expression X^2+x-2/x^3-x^2+2x-2
professor190 [17]

Answer:


=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2} is the simplest form of given expression.


Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is \frac{x^2+x-2}{x^3-x^2+2x-2}


To solve the problem we have to group or split middle term and then factorise


\frac{x^2+(2x-x)-2}{(x^3-x^2)+(2x-2)}


Taking x^2 common from first two terms of denominator and 2 from next two terms


= \frac{x^2+2x-x-2}{x^2(x-1)+2(x-1)}


Now,taking x common from first two terms of numerator and -1 from next two terms and in denominator taking(x-1) common from both terms


= \frac{ x(x+2)-1(x+2)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}



=\frac{(x+2)(x-1)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}


Now cancel out x-1 from both numerator and denominator we get


=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2} is the required simplest form.

The measure of a vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is 120° and the length of a leg is 8 cm. Find the length of a diameter of
Goryan [66]

ANSWER

The length of a Diameter is 3.714

EXPLANATION

The circumscribed triangle is shown in the attachment.

We use the cosine ratio to find the altitude of the isosceles triangle.

\cos(60 \degree)  =  \frac{altitude}{hypotenuse}

\cos(60 \degree)  =  \frac{altitude}{8}

Altitude =8cos(60°)

Altitude=4cm

Let the upper half of the altitude be y cm.

Then the radius of the circle is (y-4)cm

The upper radius meets the tangent at right angles.

From the smaller right triangle,

\sin(60 \degree)  =  \frac{4 - y}{y}

y\sin(60 \degree)  = 4 - y

y\sin(60 \degree)   + y= 4

(\sin(60 \degree)   + 1)y= 4

y=  \frac{4}{\sin(60 \degree)   + 1}

y = 16 - 8 \sqrt{3}

y=1.857

The diameter is 2y

d = 32 - 16 \sqrt{3}

=2(1.875)

The length of a Diameter is 3.714

2sin^2x - sinx - 3 = 0
e-lub [12.9K]
We have that
2sin²<span>x - sinx - 3 = 0
</span>
Let
A------> sin x
so
2A²-A-3=0

using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure

the solutions are
A=-1
A=1.5------> is not solution because sin x <span>can not be 1.5

the solution is
A=-1
therefore
sin x=-1
x=arc sin(-1)=-90</span>°

the answer is
sin x=-1
x=-90° or 270°
