What are the factors and zeros of the function f(x)=−2x2+7x+15?

Answers

Answer 1

Solving the quadratic function, it is found that the factors/zeros of the function are given by x = -1.5 and x = 5.

What are the factors/zeros of a function?

They are given by the solutions of the function, that is, the values of x for which f(x) = 0.

In this problem, the function is given by:

f(x) = -2x² + 7x + 15.

Then:

-2x² + 7x + 15 = 0.

Which is a quadratic function with coefficients a = -2, b = 7, c = 15, hence:

[tex]\Delta = 7^2 - 4(-2)(15) = 169[/tex]

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-7 + \sqrt{169}}{2(-2)} = -1.5[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = \frac{-7 - \sqrt{169}}{2(-2)} = 5[/tex]

The factors/zeros of the function are given by x = -1.5 and x = 5.

Answer:

18/8 or as a mixed number 2 ¹/4

Step-by-step explanation:

just times 6/1 by 3/8 which is 18 over 8 and simplify it into 2 ¹/4

Hii! Goodafternoon/morning!

Your question is asking how much is 3/8 + 3/8 + 3/8 is.

Normally, we would find a common denominator. But since they are all the same fraction, we don't need to.

First we need to figure out what 6×3 equals. That is 18.

We can't multiply 6×8.

So

We have to write the fraction has

18/8

But thats not simplified. So we need to turn this into a mixed number.

18/8 simplified is 2 2/8

We need to simplify that again.

2 2/8 simplified is 2 1/4.

So the answer is

2 and 1/4.

Answer:

X=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Both are equal angles( the little 2 arrows prove that) so we set up the equation like this

75=11x-2

We need to isolate x to solve for it so we add 2 to both side since it's the opposite of subtraction.

our equation will then look like this

77=11x

last but not least, we divide 11 to both sides since it's the opposite of multiplication which 11 and X are doing

the answer is 7

CAN SOMEONE GIVE A EXPLAINATION ABOUT CLOSURE PROPERTY WITH A SIMPLE EXAMPLE THAT IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND

Answers

Explanation:

A set is "closed" for a particular operation if performing that operation on members of the set always gives a member of the set.

closed example

For example, the set {0, 1} is closed for multiplication:

  0 × 0 = 0

  0 × 1 = 0

  1 × 1 = 1 . . . all result values are members of the set

Performing multiplication on any two members of the set gives a member of the set.

__

not closed example

The same set {0, 1} is not closed for addition:

  0 +0 = 0

  0 +1 = 1

  1 +1 = 2 . . . not a member of the set

Performing addition on any two members of the set does not always give a member of the set.

_____

Additional comment

Sometimes you are asked to demonstrate closure of a particular set using a particular example. As we see with addition, above, some examples may seem to demonstrate closure, while another example may prove the set is not closed. In short, you can demonstrate that the set is closed for a particular operation on a particular example, but that does not demonstrate closure in general.

Step-by-step explanation:

A candy company claims that 31% of the candies are orange. We randomly sample 100 candies. We wish to know the probability our sample is 29% orange candies or less. Round answers to 4 decimal places and answer numerically (0.31, not 31%)

Find the probability our sample is 29% orange candies or less P(x<0.29)

Answers

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that:

P(x < 0.29) = 0.2981.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, for a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}[/tex], as long as [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1 - p) \geq 10[/tex].

In this problem:

31% of the candies are orange, hence p = 0.31.We randomly sample 100 candies, hence n = 100.

Then, the mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.31[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.31(0.69)}{100}} = 0.04625[/tex]

The probability our sample is 29% orange candies or less is the p-value of Z when X = 0.29, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.29 - 0.31}{0.04625}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.43[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.43[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2981.

Hence:
P(x < 0.29) = 0.2981.
