To determine To solve: The equation 5 + x = x − 1 . Explanation The given equation is 5 + x = x − 1 . Take square on both sides as follows. ( 5 + x ) 2 = ( x − 1 ) 2 5 + x = x + 1 − 2 x 3 x = x − 4 ( 3 x ) 2 = ( x − 4 ) 2 On further simplification, 9 x = x 2 + 16 − 8 x x 2 − 17 x + 16 = 0 ( x − 16 ) ( x − 1 ) = 0 x − 16 = 0 or x − 1 = 0 x = 16 or x = 1 Therefore, the solution of equation is x = 16 or x = 1

Equations and Inequations

Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

(b) In various places in this module, data on the silver content of coins minted in the reign of the twelfth-century Byzantine king Manuel I Comnenus have been considered. The full dataset is in the Minitab file coins.mwx. The dataset includes, among others, the values of the silver content of nine coins from the first coinage (variable Coin1) and seven from the fourth coinage (variable Coin4) which was produced a number of years later. (For the purposes of this question, you can ignore the variables Coin2 and Coin3.) In particular, in Activity 8 and Exercise 2 of Computer Book B, it was argued that the silver contents in both the first and the fourth coinages can be assumed to be normally distributed. The question of interest is whether there were differences in the silver content of coins minted early and late in Manuel’s reign. You are about to investigate this question using a two-sample t-interval. (i) Using Minitab, find either the sample standard deviations of the two variables…
