First simplify all polynomials and rewrite them in descending exponent order.
1. [tex]-x^2+2x[/tex]
2. [tex]x^3-4x^2[/tex]
3. [tex]-2x^2+2x+3[/tex]
Now observe the terms with highest exponents in each expression, in particularly focus on their exponent value,
[tex]-x^2[/tex] with value of 2
[tex]x^3[/tex] with value of 3
[tex]-2x^2[/tex] with value of 2
The value is also known as order of polynomial and it is a way to classify polynomials.
Every order creates a family of polynomials determined by the order (which is always greater than -1)
A polynomial such as (1) and (3) have an orders of 2, which is often called quadratic order and thus the polynomials (1), (3) are classified in the same family of quadratic polynomials, these are polynomials with order of 2.
Polynomial (2) however has an order of 3, which is called cubic order. This polynomial (2) is classified in the family of cubic polynomials.
There are of course many other families, in fact, infinitely many of them because you have order 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on there are precisely [tex]\aleph_0+1[/tex] read as "aleph 0 + 1" (the number of natural numbers + 1 (because 0 is not a natural number)) of polynomial families.
The first few have these fancy names, for example:
order 0 => constant polynomial
order 1 => linear polynomial
order 2 => quadratic polynomial
order 3 => cubic polynomial
order 4 => quartic polynomial
and so on.
Hope this helps!
9 friends are lining up. Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith must be beside each other. How many ways can they line up?
This is one single number slightly over 17 thousand.
You may need to erase the comma when typing the answer in.
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's say that another person steps in for Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith. I'll refer to this person as the teacher (perhaps these 9 friends are students on a field trip).
The 9 friends drops to 9-4 = 5 people when those four named people leave the group temporarily. Then it bumps up to 5+1 = 6 people when the teacher steps in. Wherever the teacher is located, the four friends that left will replace the teacher. This guarantees that those four friends stick together.
There are 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720 ways to arrange those 6 people. The exclamation mark is a factorial symbol.
Within any of those 720 permutations, we have 4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24 ways to arrange those group of named people when they come back to replace the teacher.
So overall the answer is 4!*6! = 24*720 = 17,280
You may need to erase the comma when typing the answer in.
-------------
Side note: There are 9! = 362,880 ways to arrange all nine friends regardless if those four mentioned people stick together or not. We see that they stick together roughly (17,280)/(362,880) = 0.0476 = 4.76% of the time.
A classmate walks into class and states that he has an extra ticket to a chamber orchestra concert on Friday night. He asks everyone in the class to put their name on a piece of paper and put it in a basket. He plans to draw from the basket to choose the person who will attend the concert with him. If there are 38 other people in class that night, what is your chance of being chosen to attend the concert
Answer:
2.56% chance of being selected
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 39[/tex] --- you and 38 others
Required
Chance of you being selected
To do this, we simply calculate the probability using:
[tex]Pr(x) = \frac{n(x)}{n}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]n(x)= 1[/tex] --- i.e you are just 1 person
So:
[tex]Pr(x) = \frac{1}{39}[/tex]
[tex]Pr(x) = 0.0256[/tex]
Express as percentage
[tex]Pr(x) = 2.56\%[/tex]

2. About 40 millions of aluminum cans can be recycled each month in the US. A quarter of these aluminum cans are used to make one aluminum boat. How many aluminum boats can be made in one year in the US?
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
About 40 millions of aluminum cans can be recycled each month in the US. A quarter of these aluminum cans are used to make one aluminum boat. How many aluminum boats can be made in one year in the US?
Given that:
Approximate Number of cans that can be recycled per month in the US = 40 million
Fraction of recycled cans that can be used to make an aluminum boat = 1/4
The number of aluminum boats that can be made in the US in one year :
If about 40 million cans are recycle per month :
The number of boat that can be made from each monthly recycled aluminum cans will be :
Number of monthly recycled can needed to make one boat:
1/4 * 40 million = 10 million cans
Hence, 40,000,000 / 10,000,000 = 4
4 aluminum boats can be made in one month :
Number of months in a year = 12
Number of aluminum boats that can be made in a year :
4 per month * 12 = 48 aluminum boats
When studying radioactive material, a nuclear engineer found that over 365 days,
1,000,000 radioactive atoms decayed to 970,258 radioactive atoms, so 29,742 atoms
decayed during 365 days.
a. Find the mean number of radioactive atoms that decayed in a day.
b. Find the probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
a. The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
a) The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is 81.485.
b) 0% probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
a. Find the mean number of radioactive atoms that decayed in a day.
29,742 atoms decayed during 365 days, which means that:
[tex]\lambda = \frac{29742}{365} = 81.485[/tex]
The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is 81.485.
b. Find the probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
This is P(X = 50). So
[tex]P(X = 50) = \frac{e^{-81.485}*(81.485)^{50}}{(50)!} = 0[/tex]
0% probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.

The time to complete an exam in a statistics class is a normal random variable with a mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
Answer:
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.
This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]
Class size of 30 students
This means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]
What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 48.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{48.5 - 50}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2061
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes

You bought a car that was $25500 and the value depreciates by 4.5% each year.
How much will the car be worth after 5 years?
How much after 8 years?
Answer:
(a) 20256.15625
(b) 17642.78546
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) There's a formula for this problem y = A(d)^t where, A is the initial value you are given, d is the growth or decay rate and t is the time period. So, in this case, as the car cost is decreasing it is a decay problem and we can write the formula as such; y = A(1-R)^t
So, in 5 years the car will be worth, 25500(1-4.5%)^5 or 20256.15625 dollars
(b) And after 8 years the car will be worth 25500(1-4.5%)^8 or 17642.78546 dollars.

The x intercepts of the function f(x) = 2x(x-5)^2(x+4)^3
are…
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf x- intercepts = 0 , 5 \ and \ -4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is given to us and we need to find the x Intercepts of the graph of the given function . The function is ,
[tex]\sf \implies f(x) = 2x( x - 5 ) ^2(x+4)^3 [/tex]
For finding the x intercept , equate the given function with 0, we have ;
[tex]\sf \implies 2x ( x - 5 )^2(x+4)^3= 0 [/tex]
Equate each factor with 0 ,
[tex]\sf \implies 2x = 0[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2 ,
[tex]\sf \implies\bf x = 0[/tex]
Again ,
[tex]\sf \implies ( x - 5)^2=0 [/tex]
Taking squareroot on both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies x - 5 = 0 [/tex]
Add 5 to both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = 5[/tex]
Similarly ,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = -4 [/tex]
Hence the x Intercepts are -4 , 0 and 5 .

SCALCET8 3.9.015. A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along a straight path. How fast is the tip of his shadow moving when he is 35 ft from the pole
Answer:
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Height of pole [tex]H_p=15[/tex]
Height of man [tex]h_m=6ft[/tex]
Speed of Man [tex]\triangle a =4ft/s[/tex]
Distance from pole [tex]d=35ft[/tex]
Let
Distance from pole to man=a
Distance from man to shadow =b
Therefore
[tex]\frac{a+b}{15}=\frac{b}{6}[/tex]
[tex]6a+6b=15y[/tex]
[tex]2a=3b[/tex]
Generally the equation for change in velocity is mathematically given by
[tex]2(\triangle a)=3(\triangle b )[/tex]
[tex]2*4=3(\triangle b)[/tex]
[tex]\triangle a=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Since
The speed of the shadow is given as
[tex]X=\triangle b+\triangle a[/tex]
[tex]X=4+8/3[/tex]
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]

You have $1000 to invest in two different accounts. To save the money you need for college, you need to average 5.7 percent interest. If the two accounts pay 4 percent and 6 percent interest, how much should you invest in each account?
$550 in 4%, $450 in 6%
$300 in 4%, $700 in 6%
$700 in 4%, $300 in 6%
$150 in 4%, $850 in 6%
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$150 in 4%, $850 in 6%
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction that must earn the highest rate is ...
(5.7 -4.0)/(6.0 -4.0) = 1.7/2 = 0.85
That is 0.85 × $1000 = $850 must be invested at 6%. Matches the last choice.
_____
If you let x represent the amount that must earn 6%, then the total interest earned must be ...
x·6% +(1000 -x)·4% = 1000·5.7%
x(6 -4) = 1000(5.7 -4) . . . . . . multiply by 100, subtract 4·1000
x = 1000·(5.7 -4)/(6 -4) = 850 . . . . as above

True weight of a sample=166 g
Let X denote the normal random variable with mean =166+0=166
(a)
P(166.5<X<167.5)
=[tex]P(\frac{166.5-166}{0.5}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{167.5-166}{0.5})[/tex]
=[tex]P(1<Z<3)[/tex]
=[tex]P(Z<3)-P(Z<1)[/tex]
[tex]=0.99865-0.84134[/tex]
[tex]=0.15731[/tex]
(b)
[tex]P(X>167)=P(Z>\frac{167-166}{0.5})[/tex]

Help me find the domain and range please!
Answer:
Domain: (-∞, 1]
Range: (-∞, 3]
Step-by-step explanation:
The function starts at point (1, 3) and goes to the left and down forever.
Domain: (-∞, 1]
Range: (-∞, 3]
Answer:
Domain: [tex](-\infty, 1][/tex]
Range: [tex](-\infty, 3][/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain of a function represents the range of x-values that are part of the function, read left to right. We can see that the function goes forever to the left and stops at [tex]x=1[/tex] when we read left to right. Therefore, the domain of this function is [tex]\boxed{(-\infty, 1]}[/tex].
The point at [tex]x=1[/tex] is a filled-in solid dot so it is included as part of the function. Use square brackets to denote inclusive.
The range of a function represents all y-values that are part of the function, read bottom to top. The function continues down forever and stops at [tex]y=3[/tex] when read bottom to top. Therefore, the range of this function is [tex]\boxed{(-\infty, 3]}[/tex]. Similar to the domain, we use a square bracket on the right to indicate that [tex]y=3[/tex] is included in the function. If the dot was not filled-in, then we would use a parenthesis to indicate that [tex]y=3[/tex] would not be part of the function.

The club will use the majority criterion method to determine the final winner. However, while finalizing the votes, a member of the club discovers that Mason did not meet the original criteria to be considered for the vacation package, because he is a county deputy, not a city police person, so Mason is eliminated from the votes. Who actually will win the tickets? Is the irrelevant alternative criterion supported in this case?
Answer and Explanation:
The irrelevant alternative criterion states that if two candidates A and B contest for an election and candidate B is preferred to candidate A then any other candidate X should not cause candidate A to win the election.
In this case if Mason was candidate A, then candidate B should still win by the majority criterion method and the irrelevant alternative criterion would still be supported. However if he is candidate B then the irrelevant alternative criterion is not supported.

The reference desk of a university library receives requests for assistance. Assume that a Poisson probability distribution with an arrival rate of 10 requests per hour can be used to describe the arrival pattern and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of 12 requests per hour. What is the probability that no requests for assistance are in the system
Answer:
0.1667
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Arrival rate, λ = 10 requests per hour
Service rate, μ = 12 requests per hour
From queuing theory, we know that;
ρ = λ/μ
Where ρ is the average proportion of time which the server is occupied.
Thus;
ρ = 10/12
ρ = 0.8333
Now, the probability that no requests for assistance are in the system is same as the probability that the system is idle.
This is given by the Formula;
1 - ρ
probability that no requests for assistance are in the system = 1 - 0.8333 = 0.1667
