Answer:

x = 0 , x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 10x = 0 ← factor out 2x from each term on the left side

2x(x - 5) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent must be equal to 100, so if 60 are girls, then 40% must be boys.

Answer: 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller the absolute value of the correlation coefficient, the weaker the correlation.

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

option a (x-4) translates the graph 4 units right, not down

option b (x)-4 translates the graph 4 units down, not left

option c (x)+4 translates the graph 4 units up, so it is correct

option d (x+4) translates the graph 4 units left, not right

if the number is outside of the parentheses, like (x)+4 or (x)-4, the graph undergoes a vertical translation, and it moves up/down, with + meaning up and - meaning down

if the number is inside of the parentheses, like (x+4) or (x-4), the graph undergoes a horizontal translation, and moves left/right, with - meaning right and + meaning left

The new values for the mean and the standard deviation are 38 and 5 respectively.

The mean of a population is given as [tex]\mu = \frac{\sum_{N}^{i}x_i}{N}[/tex] and its standard deviation is given as [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(x_i-\mu)^2}{N}}[/tex].

In the question, we are given that a population has a mean of μ = 35 and a standard deviation of σ = 5, and are asked for the new values for the mean and standard deviation when 3 points are added to every score in the population.

We let the new population formed be over the variable k.

Thus, [tex]k_i = x_i + 3[/tex], for all i from 1 to N.

Thus, the new mean can be calculated as:

[tex]\mu_k = \frac{\sum_{N}^{i}k_i}{N}\\\mu_k = \frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(x_i + 3)}{N}\\\mu_k = \frac{\sum_{N}^{i}x_i + 3N}{N}\\\mu_k = \frac{\sum_{N}^{i}x_i}{N} + 3\\\mu_k = \mu + 3\\\mu_k = 35 + 3 = 38 [Since, \mu = 35].[/tex]

Thus, the new mean is 38.

Thus, the new standard deviation can be calculated as:

[tex]\sigma_k = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(k_i-\mu_k)^2}{N}}\\\sigma_k = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(x_i + 3-38)^2}{N}}\\\sigma_k = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(x_i-35)^2}{N}}\\\sigma_k = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{N}^{i}(x_i-\mu)^2}{N}} [Since, \mu = 35]\\\sigma_k = \sigma = 5.[/tex]

Thus, the new standard deviation is 5.

Thus, the new values for the mean and the standard deviation are 38 and 5 respectively.

Option D. The triangle inequality theorem is verified by by showing that a triangle cannot be formed when the sum of the lengths of two sides is less than the length of the third side.

From the given picture we can see the length of the sides. These are 7, 4 and 15.

The length of the two sides cannot join due to the fact that they are less than 15.

The simplified form of the expressions: 4 2/7 - 2 1/3, 4.5 - 2 5/8 and 5 2/8 - 15% are 41/21, 15/8 and 51/10 respectively.

1) 4 2/7 - 2 1/3

First we convert the mixed fraction 4 2/7 and 2 1/3 into an improper fraction.

4 2/7 = (7×4 + 2 )/7 = 30/7

2 1/3 = (3×2 + 1 )/3 = 7/3

Hence,

30/7 - 7/3

( 30×3 - 7×7  )/21

( 90 - 49  )/21

41/21

2) 4.5 - 2 5/8

First we convert both 4.5 and 2 5/8 into an improper fraction.

4.5 = 4 5/10 = (4×10 + 5)/10 = 45/10 = 9/2

2 5/8 = (2×8 + 5 )/8 = 21/8

Hence,

9/2 - 21/8

(9×8 - 21×2  )/16

(72 - 42  )/16

30/16

15/8

3) 5 2/8 - 15%

First we convert both 5 2/8 and 15% into an improper and proper fraction respectively.

5 2/8 = (5×8 + 2)/8 = 42/8 = 21/4

15% = 15/100 = 3/20

Hence

21/4 - 3/20

(21×20 - 3×4  )/80

(420 - 12  )/80

408/80

51/10

Therefore, the simplified form of the expressions: 4 2/7 - 2 1/3, 4.5 - 2 5/8 and 5 2/8 - 15% are 41/21, 15/8 and 51/10 respectively.

The x-intercepts of the function y = 2x^2 -x - 120 are (-7.5, 0) and (8, 0)

The function is given as:

y = 2x^2 - x - 120

Set the function to 0

2x^2 - x - 120 = 0

Factor out 2

2(x^2 - 0.5x - 60) = 0

Divide by 2

x^2 - 0.5x - 60 = 0

Expand the function

x^2 + 7.5x - 8x - 60 = 0

Factorize the function

(x + 7.5)(x - 8) = 0

When the completing the square is applied, the rewritten function is (x + 2)^2 = 4

The equation is given as:

x^2 + 4x = 0

The above equation is a quadratic equation and the coefficient of x in the above equation is 4.

So, we have:

k = 4

Divide the variable k by 2

k/2 = 4/2

k/2 = 2

Square the above result

(k/2)^2 = 4

Next, we add 4 to both sides of x^2 + 4x = 0

x^2 + 4x + 4 = 4

Expand the equation by expressing 4x as 2x + 2x

This gives

x^2 + 2x + 2x + 4 = 4

Factorize the above equation

x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2) = 4

Factor out x + 2 from the above equation

(x + 2)(x + 2) = 4

Rewrite the equation as a perfect square of (x + 2)

(x + 2)^2 = 4

Hence, the rewritten function after completing the square is (x + 2)^2 = 4

As the data is already ordered from least to greatest, we can apply the formulas.

The sample size, n = 17.

Start point = 50.

First quartile, Q1 = (n + 1)/4 th observation = (17 + 1)/4 th observation = 18/4 th observation = 4.5 th observation = average of the 4th and the 5th observation = (55 + 57)/2 = 112/2 = 56.

Median, Q2 = (n + 1)/2 th observation = (17 + 1)/2 th observation = 18/2 th observation = 9th observation = 65.

Third quartile, Q3 = 3(n + 1)/4 th observation = 3(17 + 1)/4 th observation = 3*18/4 th observation = 54/4 th observation = 13.5 th observation = average of the 13th and the 14th observation = (71 + 71)/2 = 142/2 = 71.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an unknown side of a right angled triangle we use a theorum called pythagorus theorum..

(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Perpendicular)^2 + (Base)^2

(h)^2 = (p)^2 + (b)^2

(a) hypotenuse = x cm, base = √30 cm, perpendicular = √12 cm.

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (x)^2 = (√12)^2 + (√30)^2

→ x^2 = 12 + 30

→ x^2 = 42

→ x = √42

→ x = 6.480...

→ x = 6.5 cm. (approx)

(b) hypotenuse = √300 cm, base = √200 cm,perpendicular = x cm.

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (√300)^2 = (x)^2 + (√200)^2

→ 300 = x^2 + 200

→ x^2 = 300 – 200

→ x^2 = 100

→ x = √100

→ x= 10 cm.

(c) hypotenuse = √66 cm, base = √17 cm,perpendicular = x cm.

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (√66)^2 = (x)^2 + (√17)^2

→ 66 = x^2 + 17

→ x^2 = 66 – 17

→ x^2 = 49

→ x = √49

→ x = 7 cm.

(d) hypotenuse = x cm, base = 5√12 cm,perpendicular = 2√3 cm.

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (x)^2 = (2√3)^2 + (5√12)^2

→ x^2 = 12 + 50

→ x^2 = 62

→ x = √62

→ x = 7.874...

→ x = 7.9 cm. (approx)
