Answer:

k = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x = 3 is a solution then it satisfies the equation, that is

2(3)² - 5(3) + k = 0

2(9) - 15 + k = 0

18 - 15 + k = 0

3 + k = 0 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

k = - 3

Answer: k = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-5x+k=0

Substitute x=3

2(3)^2-5(3)+k=0

2(9)-15+k=0

18-15+k=0

3+k=0

k=-3

To check if your answer is correct you can substitute x=3 and k = -3

2(3)^2-5(3)-3=0

2(9)-15-3=0

18-15-3=0

3-3=0

So k = -3 is correct

A student repeatedly measures the mass of an object using a mechanical balance and gets the following values: 560 g, 562 g, 556
MrRissso [65]

Answer: 2.76 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the standard deviation:-

\sigma=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x_i-\overline{x})^2}{n}}

The given data values : 560 g, 562 g, 556 g, 558 g, 560 g, 556 g, 559 g, 561 g, 565 g, 563 g.

Then,  \overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum_{i=1}^{10} x_i}{n}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \overline{x}=\dfrac{560+562+556+558+560+556+559+561+565+563}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \overline{x}=\dfrac{5600}{10}=560

Now, \sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-\overline{x})^2=0^2+2^2+(-4)^2+(-2)^2+0^2+(-4)^2+(-1)^2+1^2+5^2+3^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-\overline{x})^2=76

Then, \sigma=\sqrt{\dfrac{76}{10}}=\sqrt{7.6}=2.76

Hence, the  standard deviation of his measurements = 2.76 g

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: 0.9013

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mean, u = 10, standard deviation =8

P(X) =P(Z= X - u /S)

We are to find P(X> or =12)

P(X> or = 12) = P(Z> 12-10/8)

P(Z>=2/8) = P(Z >=0.25)

P(Z) = 1 - P(Z<= 0.25)

We read off Z= 0.25 from the normal distribution table

P(Z) = 1 - 0.0987 = 0.9013

Therefore P(X> or=12) = 0.9013

Note the question was given as an incomplete question the correct and complete question had to be searched online via Google. So the data used are those gotten from the online the Googled question.
