We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:
p(x) = (x+2) (2x^2 + 3x-9)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = - 2, x = - 3, x = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the zeros equate p(x) to zero , then

(x + 2)(2x² + 3x - 9) = 0 ← factor the quadratic

(x + 2)(x + 3)(2x - 3) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

2x - 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 3 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right triangle where we know 1 side, 1 angle and we need to find another side. We can use trigonometric functions to find the missing side.

The tangent function definition is

tan α = opposite side/ adjacent side

In our problem

   tan 70° = x/ 6, multiply both sides by 6 to isolate x

6 · tan 70° = x, use the calculator (make sure is set in degrees)

Twelve people apply for a teaching position in mathematics at a local college. Six have a PhD and six have a master’s degree. If the department chairperson selects three applicants at random for an interview, find the probability that all three have a PhD

Answers

Using the hypergeometic distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0175 = 1.75% probability that all three have a PhD.

The applicants are chosen without replacement, hence the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.N is the size of the population.n is the size of the sample.k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem, the values of the parameters are as follows: N = 20, k = 6, n = 3.

The probability that all three have a PhD is P(X = 3), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = h(3,20,3,6) = \frac{C_{6,3}C_{14,0}}{C_{20,3}} = 0.0175[/tex]

0.0175 = 1.75% probability that all three have a PhD.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

.75 x   = 255

x = 255 / .75 = 340

340 * .95 = 323

Answer:

[tex]95[/tex]% of x ([tex]340[/tex]) = [tex]\boxed{\bf\:323}[/tex]

Given,

[tex]75[/tex]% of x = [tex]255[/tex] [tex]20[/tex]% of x = [tex]68[/tex][tex]95[/tex]% of x = [tex]\boxed{?}[/tex]

Answers

The most likely equation for line P so the set of equations has infinitely many solutions is 2x + 2y = -2.

How to know an equation with infinitely many solutions?

If a linear equation has the same variable term and the same constant value on both sides of the equation, it has infinitely many solutions.

Therefore, let's check for the equation with the same terms and constant with the equation :

x + y = -1

Hence, the most likely equation of line p is as follows:

2x + 2y = -2

divide both sides by 2

2x/ 2 + 2y / 2  = -2 / 2

x + y = - 1

The equation of the line will be 2x + 2y = -2

Drag the measurements to the containers to show equal length.

Answers

The measurements that show equal length is 15 yd and 540 in, 195 ft and 2340 in, 5280 yd and 15840 ft

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

1 ft = 12 in; 1 yd = 3 ft and 1 yd = 36 in.

Hence:

15 yd = 15 yd * 36 in per yd = 540 in

195 ft = 195 ft * 12 in per ft = 2340 in

5280 yd = 5280 yd * 3 ft per yd = 15840 ft

WHAT IS THE EQUATION OF THE GRAPH?

Answers

Problem 1 (on the left)

It appears we have an exponential function curve through the points (0,4) and (1,7)

The general exponential function is of the form

y = a*b^x

The value of 'a' is the y intercept or initial value. So a = 4

Plug in (x,y) = (1,7) to help solve for b

y = a*b^x

y = 4*b^x

7 = 4*b^1

7 = 4b

b = 7/4 = 1.75

Therefore, the function is y = 4*(1.75)^x

Plug in x = 0 and you should get y = 4. Plug in x = 1 and you should get y = 7

These two facts help confirm we have the correct exponential equation.

Answer: y = 4*(1.75)^x

===========================================================

Problem 2 (on the right)

The steps will follow the same idea as the previous question.

The exponential curve goes through (-1, 120) and (0,40)

We have a = 40 this time due to the y intercept (0,40)

Plug in the coordinates of the other point to find b

y = a*b^x

y = 40*b^x

120 = 40*b^(-1)

120 = 40/b

120b = 40

b = 40/120

b = 1/3

Answer:  y = 40*(1/3)^x

HELP PLEASE!

can anyone help me with this math question? im quite confused on where to begin..

please explain & show the steps!

Answers

Answer:   -3x-2y+1

===================================================

Explanation:

In the first parenthesis grouping, we have these three terms

[tex]9x^2y[/tex]

[tex]6xy^2[/tex]

[tex]-3xy[/tex]

and we're dividing each of them over the denominator -3xy.

Think of it like the distributive property. In fact, division is a disguised version of multiplication, which is why the distributive property is not a coincidence. Example: 10/2 = 10*(1/2) = 10*0.5 = 5

If we divide each term over -3xy, then we get these three separate results:

[tex](9x^2y) \div (-3xy) = -3x[/tex]

[tex](6xy^2) \div (-3xy) = -2y[/tex]

[tex](-3xy) \div (-3xy) = 1[/tex]

The last equation is probably self explanatory: any number divided by itself is 1, as long as the number isn't zero. Eg: 4/4 = 1.

The first two equations might not be obvious. For the first equation, we divide the coefficients 9 and -3 to get -3 as the final coefficient on the right hand side. Then the variable terms cancel when pairing them up. Check out the diagram below to see what I mean by this canceling.  It's optional, but it might help to think of [tex]x^2[/tex] as [tex]x*x[/tex]

A similar situation happens in the second equation as well.

After doing those three division operations, we then add up the results to arrive at -3x+(-2y)+1 which is the same as -3x-2y+1
