Normally you would only solve by completing the square if a is 1 and b is even. But the answer would be half of b. So half of 9 is 4.5 or 4(1/2).
Answer:
(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum of n and 5 is (n + 5), then multiply by 3 gives
3(n + 5)
The result is at least 17 which means it must be greater than or equal to 17
3(n + 5) ≥ 17
The answer I got was 12 if needed I can take a picture of how I worked it
Answer:
Sample mean = 7.1
Margin of error = 0.465
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for confidence interval is;
CI = x¯ ± zE
Where;
x¯ is sample mean
z is critical value at confidence level
E is margin of error.
z for 99% Cl is 2.58
We are told the CI is 5.9 to 8.3.
Thus;
5.9 = x¯ - 2.58E - - - - (1)
8.3 = x¯ + 2.58E - - - - (2)
Add both equations together to get;
14.2 = 2x¯
x¯ = 14.2/2
x¯ = 7.1
Put 7.1 for x¯ in eq 1 to get;
5.9 = 7.1 - 2.58E
7.1 - 5.9 = 2.58E
E = 1.2/2.58
E = 0.465
X=1 Hopefully that helped
