Answer:

y = √{(a - x)/2b}

Step-by-step explanation:

x=a-2by²

2by² = a - x

divide through by 2b

y² = (a - x)/2b

y = √{(a - x)/2b}

Using the quadratic formula to solve 11x2 – 4x = 1, what are the values of x? StartFraction 2 Over 11 EndFraction plus-or-minus

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$11x^{2} -4x=1$

equate to zero

$11x^{2} -4x-1=0$

$a=11\\b=-4\\c=-1$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{-4^{2}-4(11)(-1)}} {2(11)}$

$x=\frac{4\pm\sqrt{60}} {22}$

$x=\frac{4\pm2\sqrt{15}} {22}$

$x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{15}} {11}$

$x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}$

therefore

The confidence interval would be (0.122, 0.278).

We first find our z-score. We want a 95% confidence interval:

0.95/2 = 0.475

Looking this up in the z-table, (http://www.statisticshowto.com/tables/z-table/) we see the z-score is 1.96.

The formula we will use is:

$p \pm z\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

In this problem, p = 20/100 = 0.2, and n=100:

$0.2 \pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{(0.2)(0.8)}{100}}
\\
\\0.2\pm 0.0784
\\
\\(0.2-0.0784, 0.2+0.0784)
\\
\\(0.1216,0.2784)$

Juana tiene en su tienda un costal con 28 libras de azucar.Hizo seis paquetes de 2,5 kg cada uno,de los cuales vendio cinco.¿Cua

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Al comienzo Juana tiene 28 libras de azúcar.

Ella hace 6 paquetes de 2.5kg cada paquete.

Entonces, entre los 6 paquetes, hay:

6*2.5kg = 15kg de azúcar.

Ahora el problema es que tenemos dos unidades distintas, kilogramos y libras.

Aca podemos usar la relación:

1k = 2.2lb.

Entonces 15kg de azúcar son 15 veces 2.2 libras:

15kg = 15*2.2lb = 33lb.

Esto nos da mas de lo que hay originalmente en el costal.

Ahora si lo pensamos como:

Solo vendió 5 paquetes de 2.5kg, entonces el sobrante queda en el costal inicial:

5*2.5kg = 12.5kg

De vuelta, 1kg = 2.2lb

12.5kg = 12.5*2.2lb = 27.5lb

En este caso hay un sobrante de:

28lb - 27.5lb = 0.5lb

John has a roll containing 24 2/3 feet of wrapping paper. He wants to divide it into 11 pieces. First, though ,he must cut off 5

Elodia [21]

Here's what we'll be evaluating:

24 2/3 - 5/6 24 4/6 - 5/6 23 10/6-5/6 23 5/6

------------------- = -------------------- = -------------------- = ----------------------

11 pieces 11 pieces 11 pieces 11 [pieces

Now, this 23 5/6 is equivalent to 143/6, which we must divide by 11:

143 1

------ * ---------- = 13/6 (feet)

6 11

Each piece will be 13/6 ft long (2 1/6 ft).
