Did your explanation include the following?

Some polynomial equations have complex solutions.

Therefore, complex solutions cannot be found by graphing the related system or function in the Cartesian (x-y) plane.

Polynomial functions with all complex solutions do not have x-intercepts, and the related system of equations will not intersect.

Possible values for the area A of the rectangle shown are 12 ≤ A ≤ 36. Write and solve a compound inequality to find the possibl
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

x can take any value and are viable in this situation if and only if it is a positive number

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by:

A = x * y

So if we replace we have:

12 ≤ x * y ≤ 36

We divide by y, and we have:

12 / y ≤ x ≤ 36 / y

Which means that the value of x depends on y, that is to say if y is worth 1, the inequality would be:

 12 ≤ x ≤ 36

In the event that y is equal to 2:

 12/2 ≤ x ≤ 36/2

 6 ≤ x ≤ 18

Which means, that depending on y, x can take any value and are viable in this situation if and only if it is a positive number.

Which graph best represents the following situation? As x increases, y decreases; r=-0.87.

Answer:

Graph A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The X-Axis refers to strictly horizontal movement, so the farther right it moves, the lower the dots should be on the graph because (x+,y-).

9 out of 10 people at a game are rooting for the home team. What is the probability that exactly 6 of 8 people sitting together
scZoUnD [109]

A random supporter roots the home team with probability 0.9, and the away team with probability 0.1.

Choosing 6 out of 8 supporters who root for the home team has probability

\displaystyle\binom{8}{6}\cdot 0.9^6\cdot 0.1^2 = 28\cdot0.531441\cdot 0.01=0.14

Answer:

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of executives, of size n=160, and the proportion that prefer trucks is 26%.

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion.

The sample proportion is p=0.26.

 

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.26*0.74}{160}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0012}=0.0347

The critical z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=1.96 \cdot 0.0347=0.068

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26-0.068=0.192\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.26+0.068=0.328

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.192, 0.328).

We can claim with 95% confidence that the proportion of executives that prefer trucks is between 19.2% and 32.8%.

Determine the value of (tangent of 88 degrees, 22 minutes, and 45 seconds). In this case, minutes are 1/60 of a degree and secon
mariarad [96]

Answer:

  c.  35.34015106

Step-by-step explanation:

As with many problems of this nature, you only need to get close to be able to choose the correct answer. 22 minutes 45 seconds is just slightly less than 1/2 degree (30 minutes), so the tangent value will be just slightly less than tan(88.5°) ≈ 38. The appropriate choice is 35.34015106.

If you need confirmation, you can find tan(88°) ≈ 29, so you know the answer will be between 29 and 38.

__

The above has to do with strategies for choosing answers on multiple-choice problems. Below, we will work the problem.

The angle is (in degrees) ...

  88 + 22/60 +45/3600 = 88 + (22·60 +45)/3600 = 88 +1365/3600

  ≈ 88.3791666... (repeating) . . . . degrees

A calculator tells you the tangent of that is ...

  tan(88.3791666...°) ≈ 35.3401510614

Many calculators will round that to 10 digits, as in the answer above. Others can give a value correct to 32 digits. Spreadsheet values will often be correct to 15 or 16 digits.
