Answer:

27 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

let A and B the expected numbers

assuming B = A + 2, the problem can be written as follows

¼(A + A + 2) = 14

4*¼(A + A + 2) = 4*14

(A + A + 2) = 56

2A + 2 = 56

A + 1 = 28

A = 27

B = 27 + 2 = 29

A company manufactures cell phones. In August, a random sample of 125 cell phones was inspected, and 3 phones were found to be d
german

Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many phones are expected to be defective, we need to represent the values in a fraction.

\dfrac{x}{8000}=\dfrac{3}{125}

x = number of defective phones

Now we can solve this using algebra.

To get the value of x we need to multiply both sides by 8000 to leave x alone.

x=\dfrac{3}{125}(8000)

x=0.024(8000)

x=192

So around 192 cell phones are expected to be defective out of 8000 phones.

Explain why the initial value of any function of the form<br> f(x) = a(br) is equal to a.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:When you substitute 0 for the exponent x, the expression simplifies to a times 1, which is just a. This is because any number to the 0 power equals 1. Since the initial value is the value of the function for an input of 0, the initial value for any function of this form will always be the value of a

Complete the square x^2-10=16<br><br>​
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

(x - 5)² = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the completing square form

- the form x² ± bx + c is a completing square if it can be put in the form

 (x ± h)² , where b = 2h and c = h²

# The completing square is x² ± bx + c = (x ± h)²

# Remember c must be positive because it is = h²

* Lets use this form to solve the problem

∵ x² - 10x = 16

- Lets equate 2h by -10

∵ 2h = -10 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ h = -5

∴ h² = (-5)² = 25

∵ c = h²

∴ c = 25

- The completing square is x² - 10x + 25

∵ The equation is x² - 10x = 16

- We will add 25 and subtract 25 to the equation to make the

 completing square without change the terms of the equation

∴ x² - 10x + 25 - 25 = 16

∴ (x² - 10x + 25) - 25 = 16 ⇒ add 25 to both sides

∴ (x² - 10x + 25) = 41

* Use the rule of the completing square above

- Let (x² - 10x + 25) = (x - 5)²

∴ (x - 5)² = 41
