3/4. 4/8= 2/4. so 1/4+2/4=3/4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)
Two numbers that work are -6 and +1
-6 x +1 = -6
-6 + -1 = -5
2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.
3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0
I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.
3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'
3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0
4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.
(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0
5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.
3x + 1 = 0 x-2 = 0
3x = -1 x = 2
x = -1/3
6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3
For a better understanding of the answer given here, please go through the diagram in the attached file.
The diagram assumes that the base of the hexagonal pyramid is an exact fit (has same dimensions as the face of the hexagonal prism).
As can be seen from the diagram, the common vertices are A,B,C,D,E,F which are 6 in number.
The bottom vertices are G,H,I,J,K,L, which, again are 6 in number.
The Apex of the pyramid, P is one more vertex.
Thus, the total number of vertices in a Hexagonal pyramid is located on top of a hexagonal prism will be the sum of all these vertices and thus will be:
6+6+1=13
Why not? Because every math system you've ever worked with has obeyed these properties! You have never dealt with a system where a×b did not in fact equal b×a, for instance, or where (a×b)×c did not equal a×(b×c). Which is why the properties probably seem somewhat pointless to you. Don't worry about their "relevance" for now; just make sure you can keep the properties straight so you can pass the next test. The lesson below explains how I kept track of the properties.
Answer:
a) A sample size of 5615 is needed.
b) 0.012
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of 
, and a confidence level of 
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 
.
The margin of error is:
99.5% confidence level
So 
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 
, so 
.
(a) Past studies suggest that this proportion will be about 0.2. Find the sample size needed if the margin of the error of the confidence interval is to be about 0.015.
This is n for which M = 0.015.
We have that 
A sample size of 5615 is needed.
(b) Using the sample size above, when the sample is actually contacted, 12% of the sample say they are not satisfied. What is the margin of the error of the confidence interval?
Now 
.
We have to find M.
