There is an integer n such that 2n2 − 5n + 2 is prime. To prove the statement it suffices to find a value of n such that (n, 2n2

− 5n + 2) satisfies the property "2n2 − 5n + 2 is prime." Show that you can do this by entering appropriate values for n and 2n2 − 5n + 2.

Response:

n = 0 or 3

Detailed explanation:

2n² - 5n + 2

2n² - 4n - n + 2

2n(n - 2) -1(n - 2)

(n - 2)(2n - 1)

A prime number is defined as one that can only be divided by itself and 1

Setting n-2 = 1 gives n = 3

Setting 2n-1 = 1 gives n = 0

Leona [12618]

The provided values are

$85 $240 $120 $60 $315 $190 $145 $105 $285 $260 $95 $215 $235 $175 $155

To start, we will arrange these in ascending order

resulting in

$60 $85 $95  $105  $120  $145 $155 $175 $190 $215 $235 $240 $260 $285 $315

The total count is 15

the position of 105 is 4

Now, we can calculate the percentile

=\frac{4}{15} *100

Thus, the percentile for the bid of $105 is 26.667%...........Response

A child designs a flag in the shape of a rhombus, as shown in the diagram below. Which expression can be used to determine the s
Zina [12379]
<span>Which formula can be applied to find the side length of the rhombus?

 The correct answer is the first choice: 10/Cos(30°)

 Explanation:

 1. The figure shows a right triangle, where the hypotenuse is denoted by "x," and this is the length you are solving for. Therefore, you have:

 Cos(</span>α)=Adjacent side/Hypotenuse
<span>
 </span>α=30°
<span> Adjacent side=(20 in)/2=10 in
 Hypotenuse=x

 2. Inputting these numbers into the equation yields:
</span>
 Cos(α)=Adjacent side/Hypotenuse
<span> Cos(30°)=10/x

 3. Hence, by isolating the hypotenuse "x," you arrive at the expression to find the side length of the rhombus, as shown below:

 x=10/Cos(30°)
</span>

Jean lives about 10 miles from the college where she plans to attend a 10-week summer class. There are two main routes she can t
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

We would recommend the Country Route as its travel time is consistently estimated between 15 and 18 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jean lives approximately 10 miles away from the college where she plans to attend a summer class lasting ten weeks. She has two primary routes available, one that traverses the city and another that goes through the countryside.

Jean has set up a randomized trial in which she flips a coin each day to determine her travel route, collecting data from five days for both.

Country Route - 17, 15, 17, 16, 18 (in minutes)

City Route - 18, 13, 20, 10, 16 (in minutes)

Next, we need to evaluate which route is superior for Jean.

The data indicates that the Country route has timing ranging from 15 to 18 minutes, suggesting she will typically arrive within this timeframe.

Conversely, the City route timings show significant variation with a minimum of 10 minutes and a maximum of 20 minutes, indicating uncertainty regarding her arrival time.

Hence, it is advisable for her to select the Country route.
