Solve x2 + 9x + 8 = 0 by completing the square. What are the solutions?
O (1.-8)
O (1.8)
O (-1-8)
Answers
Explanation:
x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0
x^2 + 9x = -8
Add (9/2)^2 to both sides
x^2 + 9x + (9/2)^2 = -8 + (9/2)^2
(x + 9/2)^2 = -8 + 81/4
(x + 9/2)^2 = -32/4 + 81/4
(x + 9/2)^2 = 49/4
Square root both sides
Sqrt (x + 9/2)^2 = sqrt 49/4
x + 9/2 = plus or minus 7/2
Set x + 9/2 = 7/2:
x + 9/2 = 7/2
x = 7/2 - 9/2
x = -2/2 = -1
Set x + 9/2 = -7/2:
x + 9/2 = -7/2
x = -7/2 - 9/2
x = -16/2 = -8

A passenger train traveled 180 miles in the same amount of time it took a freight train to travel 120 miles. The rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Find the rate of the passenger train.
Answers
Answer:
The passenger train is moving at 45 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of time it took the two trains to travel the distance = t.
Since the two trains traveled the distance at the same time,
Rate of the passenger train =[tex]\frac{180}{t}[/tex]
Rate of the freight train = [tex]\frac{120}{t}[/tex]
Where t is in hours.
From the problem, we can see that the rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Mathematically, we can represent this as
[tex]\frac{120}{t}= \frac{180}{t}-15[/tex]
from the above equation, we can now get our value for t as
[tex]\frac{120-180}{t}=-15\\\frac{-60}{t}=-15\\t=4 hours[/tex]
We have our time of travel for the two trains as 4 hours.
The rate of the passenger train can now be calculated by 180/4 = 45 miles per hour
Century Roofing is thinking of opening a new warehouse, and the key data are shown below. The company owns the building that would be used, and it could sell it for $100,000 after taxes if it decides not to open the new warehouse. The equipment for the project would be depreciated by the straight-line method over the project's 3-year life, after which it would be worth nothing and thus it would have a zero salvage value. No new working capital would be required, and revenues and other operating costs would be constant over the project's 3-year life. What is the project's NPV? (Hint: Cash flows are constant in Years 1-3.)
Answers
Question Completion:
WACC = 10.0%
Opportunity cost = $100,000
Net equipment cost (depreciable basis) = $65,000
Straight-line deprec. rate for equipment = 33.333%
Sales revenues, each year = $123,000
Operating costs (excl. deprec.), each year = $25,000
Tax rate = 35%
Answer:
Century Roofing
Project's NPV is: ($6,578)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
WACC = 10.0%
Opportunity cost = $100,000
Net equipment cost (depreciable basis) = $65,000
Straight-line deprec. rate for equipment = 33.333%
Sales revenues, each year = $123,000
Operating costs (excl. deprec.), each year = $25,000
Tax rate = 35%
Cash outflow in year 0 = $165,000 (Opportunity and new equipment costs)
Annual Cash inflow = $123,000 - $25,000 - $34,300 = $63,700
PV of annuity for 3 years at 10% = $158,422 ($63,700 x 2.487)
NPV = Cash inflow minus Cash outflow
= $158,422 - $165,000
= ($6,578)
Negative NPV
b) Since Century Roofing could have realized $100,000 from the sale of the building if it decides not to open the new warehouse, this opportunity cost is factored into the calculation of the Net Present Value. It becomes a present cash outflow. Century Roofing's opportunity cost is defined as the loss of $100,000 being the future return from the best alternative project when it chooses to build the new warehouse instead of selling off the building.

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1
= √∑0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0625 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 / 9
= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1
= √∑ [(0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.23)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)²] / 9
= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%
Yes, the limited data listed here shows evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.

A new fast-food firm predicts that the number of franchises for its products will grow at the rate dn dt = 6 t + 1 where t is the number of years, 0 ≤ t ≤ 15.
Answers
Answer:
The answer is "253"
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given- equation there is mistype error so, the correct equation and its solution can be defined as follows:
Given:
[tex]\bold{\frac{dn}{dt} = 6\sqrt{t+1}}\\[/tex]
[tex]\to dn= 6\sqrt{t+1} \ \ dt.....(a)\\\\[/tex]
integrate the above value:
[tex]\to \int dn= \int 6\sqrt{t+1} \ \ dt \\\\\to n= \frac{(6\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}+c\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\[/tex]
When the value of n=1 then t=0
[tex]\to 1= \frac{12(0+1)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\ \to 1= \frac{12(1)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}+c\\\\\to 1-\frac{12}{3}=c\\\\\to \frac{3-12}{3}=c\\\\\to \frac{-9}{3}=c\\\\\to c=-3\\[/tex]
so the value of n is:
[tex]\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{t+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\[/tex]
when we put the value t= 15 then,
[tex]\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{15+1} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\sqrt{16} )^{\frac{3}{2}}}{3}-3\\\\\to n= \frac{(12\times 64)}{3}-3\\\\\to n= (4\times 64)-3\\\\\to n= 256-3\\\\\to n= 253[/tex]
If you randomly select a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden," what is the probability that a vowel is randomly selected
Answers
Answer:
12/27
Step-by-step explanation:
Count all letters and all vowels then divide vowels by letters
The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.
What is the probability of an event in an experiment?The probability of any event suppose A, in an experiment is given as:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
How to solve the given question?In the question, we are given an experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden".
We are asked to find the probability that the selected letter is a vowel.
Let the event of selecting a vowel from the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden" be A.
We can calculate the probability of event A by the formula:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
The number of outcomes favorable to event A (n) = 12 (Number of vowels in the phrase)
The total number of outcomes in the experiment (S) = 27 (Number of letters in the phrase).
Now, we can find the probability of event A as:
P(A) = 12/27 = 4/9
∴ The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.

Yelena needs to swim a total of 8 miles this
week. So far, she swam 5 miles. Use the
equation 5 + m=8 to find how many more
miles Yelena needs to swim.
Answers
Answer:
3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
5 + m=8
Subtract 5 from each side
5-5 + m=8-5
m = 3
She needs to swim 3 more miles
Answer:
Yelena needs to swim 3 more miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to solve for the variable "m", which represents the miles. Based on the information, Yelena swam 5 miles and she needs to swim 8. Solve:
[tex]5+m=8[/tex]
To find the value of m, you need to isolate it on one side of the equation. To do this, you need to get the 8 and 5 on the same side of the equal operation. For this, you need to use reverse operations. This undoes the value from one side and does the same on the other, keeping the equation balanced. Since we have a "positive 5", we take the opposite, which would be a "negative 5". So subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]5-5+m=8-5[/tex]
Simplify. The 5's cancel each other out, leaving 0. 8-5 is 3:
[tex]m=3[/tex]
The total miles left that Yelena needs to swim is 3 miles.

Answers
Answer:
6 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now. This is an exponential function, An exponential function is given by:
[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]
Let x be the number of years and y be the allowance. The initial allowance is $8, this means at x = 0, y = 8
[tex]y=ab^x\\8=ab^0\\a=8[/tex]
Since it increases by 20% each year, i.e 100% + 20% = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2. This means that b = 1.2
Therefore:
[tex]y=ab^x\\y=8(1.2^x) \\[/tex]
To find the number of years will it take to reach $20 per month, we substitute y = 20 and find x
[tex]20=8(1.2)^x\\20/8=1.2^x\\1.2^x=2.5\\Taking \ natural\ log\ of \ both\ sides:\\ln(1.2^x)=ln2.5\\xln(1.2)=0.9163\\x=0.9163/ln(1.2)\\x=5.026[/tex]

Answer: There are no real number roots (the two roots are complex or imaginary)
The discriminant D = b^2 - 4ac tells us the nature of the roots for any quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c = 0
There are three cases
If D < 0, then there are no real number roots and the roots are complex numbers.If D = 0, then we have one real number root. The root is repeated twice so it's considered a double root. This root is rational if a,b,c are rational.If D > 0, then we get two different real number roots. Each root is rational if D is a perfect square and a,b,c are rational.Compute the least-squares regression line for the given data set. Use a TI-84 calculator. Round final answers to four decimal places, as needed.

Answer:
Y = 2.843+ 0.037 X
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equation of the straight line to be fitted to the data , be Y = a+b X where a and b are to be evaluated. The normal equations fro determining a and b are
∑Y = na +b ∑X
∑XY = a∑X + b∑X²
We now calculate ∑X, ∑Y , ∑X², and ∑XY
X Y XY X²
5 4 20 25
7 3 21 49
6 2 12 36
2 5 10 4
1 1 1 1
21 15 64 115
Thus the normal equation becomes
5a + 21b =15
21a +115b = 64
Solving these two equations simultaneously we get
105 a + 441b = 315
105a + 575b = 320
134b= 5
b= 0.037 , a= 2.843
Hence the equation for the required straight line is
Y = 2.843+ 0.037 X
Carla drove her truck 414 miles on 18 gallons of gasoline. How many miles did she drive per gallon?
Answers
Answer:
23 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
414 miles = 18 gallons
=> 18/18 gallons = 414/18 miles
=> 1 gallon = 23 miles
So, she drove 23 miles per gallon.
Given the following hypotheses: H0: μ = 490 H1: μ ≠ 490 A random sample of 15 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 495 and the sample standard deviation 9. Using the 0.01 significance level:
a.) State the decision rule.
b.) Compute the value of the test statistic.
c.) What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
Answers
Answer:
We conclude that the population mean is equal to 490.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a random sample of 15 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 495 and the sample standard deviation 9.
Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 490 {means that the population mean is equal to 490}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 490 {means that the population mean is different from 490}
The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_1_4[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = 495
s = sample standard deviation = 9
n = sample of observations = 15
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{495-490}{\frac{9}{\sqrt{15} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_1_4[/tex]
= 2.152
The value of t-test statistics is 2.152.
Now, at a 0.01 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of -2.977 and 2.977 at 14 degrees of freedom for the two-tailed test.
Since the value of our test statistics lies within the range of critical values of t, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will not fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that the population mean is equal to 490.
A group of fitness club members lose a combined total of 28 kilograms in 1 week. There are approximately 2.2 pounds in 1 kilogram. Assuming the weight loss happened at a constant rate, about how many pounds did the group lose each day?
Answers
Answer:
8.8 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Combined weight loss which occurred within a week = 28 kg
Number of days in a week = 7 days
1 kilogram (kg) = 2.2 pounds
Combined weight loss in pounds that occurs within a week:
Weight loss in kg × 2.2
28kg * 2.2 = 61.6 pounds
Assume weight loss occurred at a constant rate :
Weight lost by the group per day :
(Total weight loss / number of days in a week)
(61.6 pounds / 7)
= 8.8 pounds daily
Answer:
88
