Thus, the required length of each piece of wood is or 9 inches.
Which of the following is the correct factored form of the given equation?
4x 2 - 11x + 6 = 0
(2x + 3)(2x + 2) = 0
(2x - 3)(2x - 2) = 0
(4x - 3)(x - 2) = 0
Answer:
(4x - 3)(x-2) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
4x² - 11x + 6 = 0
To factorize this equation,
-11
4x6
These numbers are the key to the solution:
find two numbers whose sum is -11 and the product is + 24 (4 x 6)
So, the numbers are -3 and -8
4x² - 8x - 3x + 6 = 0
4x(x -2) - 3(x - 2) = 0
(4x - 3)(x-2) = 0
Answer:
(4x - 3)(x - 2) = 0
That's your answer!!
Two cars start traveling in the same direction around a circular road that is 80 km long. The speed of one car is 92 km/h and the sped of the other is 68 km/h. b How many minutes after the two cars start traveling will one car lap the other for the second time?
Answer:
200 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that the speed is 92 km/h for the first car and 68 km/h for the second car. We do not know the time, but we do know that we need to convert it into minutes. The time for both cars would be x/60. Now we multiply speed by time and get distance. The first car would be 92 x/60 and the second would be 68 x/60, now we cross multiply and make an equation. 92x/60 - 68x/60 = 80, 24x = 80, x=200 minutes.

For the following situation, identify the explanatory and response variable. Then discuss what reservations (think cautions) you might have about the results of the experiment. Asking “What if…” type questions may help.
Do the high, centered brake lights (which have been required on all U.S. cars since 1986) really reduce the frequency of rear-end collisions? Randomized comparative experiments with fleets of rental and business cars, done before the lights were required, showed that the third brake light reduced rear-end collisions by as much as 50%. After the lights were required the drop was only 5%.
The experiment is messed up. Business and rental drivers are usually much more careful in their driving patterns because the car isn't theirs. They are usually adults, experienced drivers who don't put themselves into risky driving situations. = Speeding, cutting off others etc.. It also didn't tell how much the cars were driven. There may have been a down turn in the economy and thus less business driving and same with the rentals. If they were used less after the installation then the study wasn't really valid. What was the price of gas before and after the instillation. Who did the study? Did the previous testers have any reason to skew the study? Did they own stock in the third light business? Was it the same people who did the study before who did the study afterwords? What was the average age of the drivers before and after? The study group may have aged and calmed down a bit more? What were the technology changes that occurred about the same time? Anti skid brakes, better material and tread designs for the tires, what about the design of the gages and their lighting. How about the window styles and size..larger windows mean better view and potentially less accidents. What were the safety aspects of the cars before compared to the cars after, were they the same makes and Models or did the rental and business learn that certain cars were safer than others and move to the safer Models? so many variables to consider but did the tester consider them all-probably not. Random studies study only a certain percentage of the total. Who's to say the second random study didn't get less experienced drivers to study? All good what ifs'.

two angles are complementary.the measure of the larger angle is two times the measure of the smaller angle .What is the measure of each angle ?
We know that :
The sum of two angles that are complementary = 90°
Smaller angle = x
Larger angle = 2x
We can make the formula as
= 2x + x = 90°
= 3x = 90°
= x = 90 ÷ 3
= x = 30
The smaller angle = x = 30°
The larger angle = 2x = 30 × 2 = 60°
Therefore , the measure of each of the angles are 30° and 60° .
What is the distance from b (-35,25) to c (-20, 15)
Answer:
[tex]d = 5\sqrt{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance Formula: [tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(-20-(-35))^2+(15-25)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{(-20+35)^2+(-10)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{(15)^2+100}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{225+100}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{325}[/tex]
[tex]d = 5\sqrt{13}[/tex]

SAT scores: A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 433 . Assume the population standard deviation is 115 .
(a) Construct a 99 % confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score for the entering freshman class. Round the answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval is [tex] 403.33 < \mu < 462.67 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 100
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 433[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 115[/tex]
From the question we are told the confidence level is 99% , hence the level of significance is
[tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 2.58 * \frac{115 }{\sqrt{100} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 29.67 [/tex]
Generally 99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\= x -E < \mu < \=x +E[/tex]
=> [tex]433 -29.67 < \mu < 433 + 29.67[/tex]
=> [tex] 403.33 < \mu < 462.67 [/tex]

If TSP and PSW are supplementary, and TSP is two times as large as mPSW, what is mTSP?
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{120 \textdegree}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for m∠TSP, we can use basic angle relationships and equations.
Let’s assume m∠PSW is [tex]x[/tex]°
We know that if two angles are supplementary, their angle lengths will add to 180°.
We also know that m∠TSP is twice as large as PSW. Since PSW is represented as x°, TSP will be 2x°.
We can add these two angles together and get 180°. Then you can solve for x (PSW)
[tex]x+2x=180[/tex] [tex]3x=180[/tex] [tex]x=60[/tex]So we know that x (PSW) is 60°. However, the question asks for the measure of TSP. We know that TSP is twice as large as PSW, so we can multiply PSW (60) by 2.
[tex]60 \cdot 2 = 120[/tex]
So m∠TSP is 120°.

In 2008 the Better Business Bureau settled 75% of complaints they received (USA Today, March 2, 2009). Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is .75, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2008
a. Suppose you select a sample of 450 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
b. Based upon a sample of 450 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
c. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
d. Based upon the smaller sample of only 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
e. As measured by the increase in probability, how much do you gain in precision by taking the larger sample in part (b)?
Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.
The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}= p[/tex]
The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:
[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
(a)
The sample selected is of size n = 450 > 30.
Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.
The mean and standard deviation are:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{450}}=0.0204[/tex]
So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is [tex]\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0204^{2})[/tex].
(b)
Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:
[tex]P(p-0.04<\hat p<p+0.04)=P(\frac{-0.04}{0.0204}<\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}<\frac{0.04}{0.0204})[/tex]
[tex]=P(-1.96<Z<196)\\=P(Z<1.96)-P(Z<-1.96)\\=0.975-0.025\\=0.95[/tex]
Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95.
(c)
The sample selected is of size n = 200 > 30.
Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.
The mean and standard deviation are:
[tex]\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{200}}=0.0306[/tex]
So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is [tex]\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0306^{2})[/tex].
(d)
Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:
[tex]P(p-0.04<\hat p<p+0.04)=P(\frac{-0.04}{0.0306}<\frac{\hat p-p}{\sigma_{\hat p}}<\frac{0.04}{0.0306})[/tex]
[tex]=P(-1.31<Z<196)\\=P(Z<1.31)-P(Z<-1.96)\\=0.9049-0.0951\\=0.8098\\\approx 0.81[/tex]
Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.81.
(e)
The probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 450 is 0.95.
And the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 200 is 0.81.
So, there is a gain in precision on increasing the sample size.

Omar made $144 for 12 hours of work.
At the same rate, how much would he make for 8 hours of work?
Please help
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
144/12= 12 ( each hour)
12( times) 8=96
Since they got 144 for 12 hours you have to divide the hours by the money to get the amount earned ever hour so you divide the total amount by the hour then use the information you got and then you multiply the amount of money by 8

check whether the given value of x in the solution to the equation.
Answer: Yes
Step-by-step explanation: Here, we want to decide
if 2 is a solution for the equation 4n - 3 = -2n + 9.
We can do this by simply plugging in 2 for n.
If the statement holds true, then 2 is a solution.
Plugging in 2 for n, we have 4(2) - 3 = -2(2) + 9.
Remember that a negative times a positive is a negative.
So we have 8 - 3 = -4 + 9.
Simplifying further, we have 5 = 5.
Notice that 5 = 5 is a true statement.
So yes, 2 is a solution for the equation 4n - 3 = -2n + 9.
