Incorrect, she should have divided both sides by 8. The answer should be x=7. There is only 1 solution to the equation because x is raised to the first degree. It is not a polynomial equation so there won't be more than 1 answer to the equation.

What are the x-intercepts of the function f(x) = –2x2 – 3x + 20?
Hatshy [7]

The root sof this quadratic equation are -4 and 2.5.


The roots of any quadratic can be found by using the quadratic equation. The equation is below for you.


\frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2}- 4ac}}{2a}


In this equation you use the number attached to x^2 as the a, which in this case is -2. The number attached to x as b, which is in this case -3. And the number at the end as c, which is 20. From there you solve for the answers.


\frac{3 +/- \sqrt{-3^{2}- 4(-2)(20)}}{2(-2)}

\frac{3 +/- \sqrt{9 + 160}}{-4}

\frac{3 +/- 13}}{4}


Now you separate and get the two separate answers. First the positive.


\frac{3 + 13}}{4}

\frac{16}}{4}

4


Now the negative


\frac{3 - 13}}{4}

\frac{-10}}{4}

-2.5

A polling organization asked a nation-wide random sample of 1600 new brides (those who got married in the past 2 years) the foll
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

It has millions of tickets. On each ticket is written a number a dollar amount. The exact average and SD are unknown but are estimated from the sample to be $20,000 and $5,000 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

sample size n = 1600

sample mean \overline x = 20000

standard deviation = 5000

The objective is to choose from the given option about what most closely resembles the relevant box model.

The correct answer is:

It has millions of tickets. On each ticket is written a number a dollar amount. The exact average and SD are unknown but are estimated from the sample to be $20,000 and $5,000 respectively.

However, if draws are made without replacement, the best estimate of the average amount for the bride will be $20,000

Similarly, the standard error for the sample mean = \dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

= \dfrac{5000}{\sqrt{1600}}

= \dfrac{5000}{40}}

the standard error for the sample mean = 125

When solving a system of equations graphically, when would you need to estimate the solution? Explain.
Simora [160]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

When solving a system of equations graphically, the solution is the intersection points both graphs.

so

You need to estimate the solution when:

a) both the x- and y-values for the intersection point are not integers.

b) the value of at least one coordinate is between integers.

c) the intersection point does not fall on a grid line.
