3. How many solutions are there to the
equation 2x^2 - 3x +12=0? Tell how
you know.
Answer:
If you're talking about solutions in general (real and imaginary solutions), there is 2, because the fundamental theorem of algebra says that the number of roots of any polynomial is the degree if it's highest power, which is 2.
If you're talking about only real solutions, there is 0. To show that, we can take the discriminant (b^2-4ac) part of the quadratic equation, and plug in the know values. We then get:
(-3)^2-4*2*12
=9-96
=-87
Remember, the discriminant will be taken the square root. Since this is negative, the answer will be imaginary. Therefore, there is no real solution.

Bentley is trying to get better at skateboarding. He has a goal of skateboarding 5 miles total this week with two short runs and one longer run. His two short runs total 2.25 miles. How long will his long skateboard run need to be in order to hit his goal?
To find the length of Bentley’s long run, you would use:
5 – 2.25
Question 1 options:
True
False
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
If he is doing 2 short runs and one long run, and his 2 short runs equal 2.25 miles, you'd need to subtract them from the total to find out the long run.

According to the Fiji Diabetes Association, 23.1% of Fijians aged 60 years or older had diabetes in 2017. A recent random sample of 200 Fijians aged 60 years or older showed that 52 of them have diabetes. Using a 5% significance level, perform a test of hypothesis to determine if the current percentage of Fijians aged 60 years or older who have diabetes is higher than that in 2017. Use the P-value method
Answer:
The point estimated is 0.260
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Sample in which the people have diabetes = 52
Random sample = 200
Significance level = 5%
Based on this, the, estimation point is
= Sample in which the people have diabetes ÷ Random sample
= 52 ÷ 200
= 0.260
hence, the point estimated is 0.260
We simply applied the above formula
And, the same is to be considered
The Null Hypothesis is accepted because the value of z is 0.973 and this can be determined by performing the test of the Hypothesis.

Two containers of gasoline hold a total of 50 gallons. The big container can hold 10 gallons less than twice the small
container. How many gallons does each container hold?
Answer:
The big container holds 30 gallons and the small container holds 20 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
The big container = x
Small container = y
The big container can hold 10 gallons less than twice the small
x = 2y - 10
Total gasoline in both containers = 50 gallons
x + y = 50
Substitute x = 2y - 10 into the equation
2y - 10 + y = 50
3y = 50 + 10
3y = 60
Divide both sides by 3
y = 60 / 3
= 20
y = 20 gallons
Recall,
x + y = 50
x + 20 = 50
x = 50 - 20
= 30
x = 30 gallons
The big container holds 30 gallons and the small container holds 20 gallons
Answer:
The big container has 30 gallons and the small container has 20 gallons.

The US Department of Health and Human Services wants to know whether the national healthcare system is achieving its goals in Florida. Much information about healthcare comes from
patient records, but that source doesn't allow us to compare people who use health services with those who don't. Therefore, the US Department of Health and Human Services conducted the
Florida Health Survey, which was used to interview a random sample of 62,348 people who live in the state of Florida.
Part A: What is the population for this sample survey? What is the sample? (4 points)
Part B: The survey found that 74% of males and 83% of females in the sample had visited a general practitioner at least once during the past year. Do you think these estimates are close to
the truth about the entire population? Explain. (6 points) (10 points)
Answer:
A)i) Population: Total number of people that reside in Florida..
II) Sample: 62348 people that took part in the random survey.
B) No, the estimates are not close to the truth of the entire population.
Step-by-step explanation:
A)i) The population is the total number of people that reside in Florida.
II) The sample is the 62348 people that took part in the random survey.
B) From the details given in the question, we will see that people who are not part of the healthcare system weren't included due to the fact that they used patients records to judge. This means that if they don't have healthcare, then they will have no patient records. Therefore, we can conclude that the estimates are not close to the truth of the entire population due to the fact that that those who weren't part of the Healthcare system were not considered.

1. In 1995, the average level of mercury uptake in wading birds in the Everglades was 15 parts per million. If we assume that the distribution of mercury uptake has a standard deviation of 1 part per million, and a current sample of 25 wading birds has an average of 14.6 parts per million. Which null and alternative hypotheses would be used to test that the level of mercury uptake in the Everglades has decreased since 1995?
Answer:
We reject H₀, we find that the current level of mercury uptake in the Everglades has decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to test the current wading bird average 14,6 vs the 1995 average. As sample mean is 14,6 and population mean is 15 we are going to check test is of one tail (left tail test)
Test Hypothesis:
Null hypothesis H₀ μ = μ₀
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ < μ₀
Sample size 25 then n < 30 we will use t-student table
Population mean : μ₀ = 15 ppm
sample mean : μ = 14,6 ppm
sample standard deviation: s = 1 ppm
Sample size n : 25
degrees of freedom df = n - 1 df = 24
We will develop the test for CI 90% then α = 10% α = 0,1 α/2 = 0,05
For that values in t student table we find:
t(c) = 1,711 by symmetry t(c) = - 1,711
To compute ts
t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) / s/√n
t(s) = 14,6 - 15 / 1 /√25
t(s) = - 0,4*5 / 1
t(s) = - 2
Comparing t(c)and t(s)
|t(s)| > |t(c) | and t(s) < t(c) -2 < -1,711
Therefore t(s) in in the rejection region, we reject H₀

A large bag of cashews weighs 9 1/4 pounds. One serving is 1/5 pound. How many servings are in the bag.
Answer as a mixed number = 46 & 1/4
Answer as a decimal = 46.25
===============================================
Work Shown:
9 & 1/4 = 9 + 1/4 = 9 + 0.25 = 9.25
1/5 = 0.2
A bag of cashews weighs 9.25 pounds and one serving is 0.2 pounds.
Let x be the number of servings
1 serving = 0.2 pounds
x servings = 0.2x pounds after multiplying both sides by x
0.2x pounds represents the total bag's weight so,
0.2x = 9.25
x = 9.25/0.2
x = 46.25 answer in decimal form
x = 46 + 0.25
x = 46 + 1/4
x = 46 & 1/4 answer in mixed number form
This means we have 46 full servings plus an additional 1/4 of a serving.
Suppose that Elsa and Frank determine confidence intervals based on the same sample proportion and sample size. Elsa uses a larger confidence level than Frank. How will midpoint and width of confidence intervals compare
Answer:
elsa's interval width will be greater than that of frank
Step-by-step explanation:
first of all we are told that both Elsa and Frank have the same sample proportion so their midpoint is also going to be the same.
now as the confidence level goes higher, so also would the margin of error increase. then the width of the confidence interval would rise so it can be more confident.
from this question elsa has a larger confidence level therefore her intervals width will be greater than franks own.

(10 points) A random sample of 100 Cooper County residents showed that 18 are college graduates and a second random sample of 50 Boone County residents showed that 28 are college graduates. Round your final answer to each part to three decimal places, but do not round during intermediate steps. The relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is
Answer:
The relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is 3.11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
C = Cooper County resident
B = Boone County resident
G = graduate
NG = non-graduate
The information provided is summarized as follows:
G NG Total
C 18 82 100
B 28 22 50
Total 46 104 150
Compute the relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents as follows:
[tex]\text{Relative Risk}=\frac{\text{Graduates in Boone County}}{\text{Graduates in Cooper County}}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{28/50}{18/100}\\\\=\frac{28}{50}\times \frac{100}{18}\\\\=3.11111\\\\\approx 3.11[/tex]
Thus, the relative risk of being a college graduate for Boone County residents as compared to Cooper County residents is 3.11.
The relative risk of remaining a college graduate for Boon County residents in comparison to Cooper County residents would be 0.500
Relative risk:Relative risk is used in the statistical analysis of the data of ecological, cohort, medical, and intervention studies, to estimate the strength of the association between exposures (treatments or risk factors) and outcomes. Mathematically, it is the incidence rate of the outcome in the exposed group.
The relative risk is calculated by dividing the probability of an event for group 1 divided by the probability of an event occurring for group 2.
The probability of the Boone country resided is a college graduate,
By the formula of classical probability [tex]P(A)=\frac{m}{n}[/tex] then,
[tex]\frac{18}{100}=0.18[/tex]
The probability of cooper country resided is a college graduate is,[tex]\frac{18}{50}=0.36[/tex]
