If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation
x? + 15x + 25 = 0, which number would have to be added to "complete the
square"?
Answer:
31.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of a complete square would be (x + a)^2 + b
Given an equation of X^2 + 15X + 25 = 0,
the idea is to reduce it into the form if (X + C)^2
which can be expanded into X^2 + 2XC + C^2
In this case 15 will be our 2C So our c will be 7.5.
Substituting in these numbers,
We have X^2 + 15X + (7.5)^2 = 0
However our original equation has 25 for its C^2, thus
we need to add 31.25 in order to get (7.5)^2
FYI
The final completed form will be (X + 7.5)^2 - 31.25
Caroline can ride her bike 5 miles in 25 minutes. At this rate, how long would it take her to bike 8 miles?
Answer:
40 min.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/25=1/5
1/5=0.2
8/0.2=40
Answer:
40 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
do 25 divided by 5 and you get 5, which means she can ride one mile in 5 mins, so then multiply 5 and 8 and you get the product of 40.
Six Sigma is comprehensive approach to quality goal setting that involves statistics. An article in Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology (Vol. 76, No. 6, 2004) demonstrate the use of the normal distribution in Six Sigma goal setting at Motorola Corporation. Motorola discovered that the average defect rate for parts produced on an assembly line varies from run-to-run and is approximately normally distributed with a mean equal to 3 defects per million. Assume that the goal at Motorola is for the average defect rate to vary no more than 1.5 standard deviations above or below the mean of 3. How like is it that the goal will be met?
Answer:
0.8664 = 86.64% probability that the goal will be met.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set 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]
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Assume that the goal at Motorola is for the average defect rate to vary no more than 1.5 standard deviations above or below the mean of 3. How like is it that the goal will be met?
It should be within 1.5 standard deviations of the mean, which means that the probability is the pvalue of Z = 1.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = -1.5.
Z = 1.5 has a pvalue of 0.9332
Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668
0.9332 - 0.0668 = 0.8664
0.8664 = 86.64% probability that the goal will be met.

Alexis is going to Vegas for the weekend! She decides to try her hand at a new game that Casino QuickCash is promoting. For this game, you pay $6 to play. A dealer shuffles and then randomly draws a card from a standard deck of 52 cards. If the card drawn is a diamond, Alexis wins nothing. If the card drawn is an even-numbered card (2,4,6,8, or 10) from the remaining three decks, Alexis wins $8. Otherwise, Alexis wins $12. a) Alexis's expected winnings per game is (rounded to the nearest cent):
Answer:
$10.46
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount that can be won by Alexis ( xi ) = $0, $8 , $12
probability ( pi )
P( $0 ) = 13 / 52 = 1 / 4
P( $8 ) = 15 / 39 ( given that she wins this when an even number is drawn from three remaining decks )
P ( $12 ) = 1 - 15/39 = 24 / 39
a) Alexis expected winnings per game
= ∑ xi * pi = ( 0 * 1/4 ) + ( 8 * 15/39 ) + ( 12 * 24 / 39 )
= $0 + ( 120 / 39 ) + ( 288 / 39 ) = $10.46

HELP PLS
Answer:
In order to solve this problem, you have to find the lowest common denominator. Take multiples of both 6 and 4 and see which is the lowest you have in common.
4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
6: 6, 12, 18, 24
So 12 is the lowest common multiple....
5/6 x ?/? = ?/12 (you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number)
3/4 x ?/? = ?/12 (you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number)
When the denominators are the same, you can subtract the numerators. The denominator will stay 12!
