"no terms independent of x" basically means there is no constant term, or the coefficient of x ⁰ is zero.
Recall the binomial theorem:
[tex]\displaystyle (a+b)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk a^{n-k}b^k[/tex]
So we have
[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \left(1+ax^2\right) \sum_{k=0}^6 \binom 6k \left(\frac2x\right)^{6-k}(-3x)^k[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \left(1+ax^2\right) \sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-6}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \left(1+ax^2\right)\left(\frac2x-3x\right)^6 = \sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-6}+a\sum_{k=0}^6 2^{6-k}(-3)^k\binom 6k x^{2k-4}[/tex]
The first sum contributes a x ⁰ term for 2k - 6 = 0, or k = 3, while the second sum contributes a x ⁰ term for 2k - 4 = 0, or k = 2. The coefficient of the sum of these terms must be zero:
[tex]2^{6-3}(-3)^3\dbinom 63 + a\times2^{6-2}(-3)^2\dbinom 62 = 0[/tex]
which reduces to
2160a - 4320 = 0
2160a = 4320
a = 2

The function f(x) = −x2 + 18x − 72 models the daily profit, in dollars, a gym makes for selling memberships, where x is the number of memberships sold, and f(x) is the amount of profit.
Part A: Determine the vertex. What does this calculation mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)
Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)
(10 points)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this so as to streamline both the vertex and finding the zeros is to complete the square. That method will provide us with the vertex, and then we can continue on to factor from that form to find the zeros. Completing the square requires us to set the quadratic equal to 0 then move over the constant, giving us
[tex]-x^2+18x=72[/tex] The leading coefficient HAS to be a positive 1; ours is negative 1 so we factor out the negative to get:
[tex]-(x^2-18x)=72[/tex] Now we're ready to complete the square.
Take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 18 (from -18x; don't worry about the negative because squaring it makes it positive anyway). Half of 18 is 9, and 9 squared is 81.
BUT on the left we have that -1 sitting out front that refuses to be ignored. What we actually added on to the left side, inside the parenthesis, is -1(81) which is -81. -81 is what we add to the right since that turns out to be what we added to the left:
[tex]-(x^2-18x+81)=72-81[/tex] and we clean that up.
The reason we complete the square is because when we simplify the left side, we end up with a perfect square binomial found from taking the square root of x-squared, the first sign we come to, then the square root of 81:
[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex]. Move the constant back over to get
[tex]-(x-9)^2+9=y[/tex] telling us that the vertex is (9, 9). In the context of the problem that means that the gym sells on average 9 memberships a day and the profit it makes on average per day is $9.
To factor, we will go back one step to
[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex] and begin by dividing both sides by -1 to get
[tex](x-9)^2=9[/tex] and undo the squaring by taking the square root of both sides to get
x - 9 = ±3 so
x = 9 + 3 and
x = 9 - 3 so
x = 6 and 12
Those are the zeros. This means that if they sell either 6 or 12 memberships they have a 0 profit. That may sound strange, but in business it does often work like that...selling too many of something makes your company lose money (this is often due to the cost required by you to produce or manufacture the product).
Annie is opening a savings account which earns 5.2% interest compounded continuously how much will she need to deposit in the account so she has $2300 after seven years
Hi
let's call X the initial deposit.
the interest rate is 5.2 %
so each year X increase by 1.052.
so we have : X *1.052^7 =2300
X = 2300/1.052^7
X = 1612,94
please note that the deposit was rounded to the next cent. as the result would be 1612,937...

A pizza parlor has a choice of 10 toppings for its pizzas. From these 10 toppings, how many different 7-topping pizzas are possible?
Answer:
120
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 10 possible toppings to choose from, you choose 7.
Using combinatorics, it's 10!/(7! 3!), or 120.
The formula is (total amount to choose from )! divided by (amount you choose)!(amount you don't choose)!
Or search up combination formula
A combination is an arrangement of a set of numbers from a total set where the order of the set is not relevant.

The median age (in years) of the U.S. population over the decades from 1960 through 2010 is given by
f(t) = −0.2176t3 + 1.962t2 − 2.833t + 29.4 (0 ≤ t ≤ 5)
where t is measured in decades, with t = 0 corresponding to 1960.
(a) What was the median age of the population in the year 1970?
(b) At what rate was the median age of the population changing in the year 1970?
(c) Calculate f ''(1).
Considering the given function, we have that:
a) 28.31 years.
b) 0.3382 years a decade.
c) 2.6184.
What is the function?The median age of the U.S. population in t decades after 1960 is:
f(t) = -0.2176t³ + 1.962t² - 2.833t + 29.4.
1970 is one decade after 1960, hence the median was:
f(1) = -0.2176 x 1³ + 1.962 x 1² - 2.833 x 1 + 29.4 = 28.31 years.
The rate of change was is the derivative when t = 1, hence:
f'(t) = -0.6528t² + 3.924t - 2.933
f'(1) = -0.6528 x 1² + 3.924 x 1 - 2.933 = 0.3382 years a decade.
The second derivative is:
f''(t) = -1.3056t + 3.924
Hence:
f''(1) = -1.3056 x 1 + 3.924 = 2.6184.

SURAT
Answer:
C. infinitely many
Step-by-step explanation:
If two equations in slope-intercept form have the same slope and y-intercept they must be the same line. Additionally, the solutions of a system of equations are wherever the two lines intersect. Since the lines are the same they must intersect at every point. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

90 65 79 69 79
87 86 98 91 95
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data:
This year :
35, 45, 53, 57, 61, 65, 67, 69, 70, 71, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 77, 80, 81, 82, 83, 87, 90, 93, 95, 99
Mean = ΣX / n = 1825 / 25 = 73
The mode = 71 ( most frequently occurring)
Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term
Median = 73
10 years ago :
51, 55, 56, 59, 65, 67, 68, 69, 69, 74, 75, 76, 77, 77, 79, 79, 79, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91, 91, 95, 98
Mean = ΣX / n = 1902 / 25 = 76.08
The mode = 79 ( most frequently occurring)
Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term
Median = 77
According to the computed statistics, we can conclude that, today is worse than the past as the average score which is almost similar to the median value is higher 10 years ago and the modal score is better 10 years ago as well.

The scores of a high school entrance exam are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 82.4 and standard deviation Sigma = 3.3. What percentage of the scores are between 75.8 and 89?
Notice that
75.8 = 82.4 - 6.6 = 82.4 - 2 × 3.3
89 = 82.4 + 6.6 = 82.4 + 2 × 3.3
Then the percentage of students with scores between 75.8 and 89 make up the part of the distribution that lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The empirical (68-95-99.7) rule says that approximately 95% of any distribution lies within this range.

by tradition.
so usingthe function,
f
(
x

=
1
+
x
we can rewrite it as,
y
=
1
+
x
any pair of x and y that satisfy this equation are solutions to the equation.
so subbing in

,
0
=

(

0
=

which is not true so the point does not make the function true.
It might be easier to see graphically,
graph{1+x [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
any combination of x and y on this line make the equation true and as such are an ordered pair of the function.
