Answer:

  a) the degree of the polynomial

  b) count the x-intercepts, with attention to multiplicity

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra tells you the number of zeros of a polynomial is equal to the degree of the polynomial. That is, for some polynomial p(x), the number of solutions to p(x)=0 will be the degree of p.

__

On a graph, a real zero of the polynomial will be an x-intercept. The "multiplicity" of a zero is the degree of the factor giving rise to that zero. When the multiplicity is even, the graph does not cross the x-axis at the x-intercept. The greater the multiplicity, the "flatter" the graph is at the x-intercept.

If all solutions (zeros) are distinct, then the number of real solutions can be found by counting the number of x-intercepts of the graph.

_____

By way of illustration, the attached graph is of a 6th-degree polynomial with 6 real zeros. From left to right, they are -1 (multiplicity 1), 1 (multiplicity 2), 4 (multiplicity 3). The higher multiplicities are intended to show the flattening that occurs at the x-intercept, and the fact that the graph does not cross the x-axis where the multiplicity is even.

Answer:

5 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how many people 36 tables seats. In order to do this, we need to multiply 36 (tables) by 4 (people sitting) to get 144. Now just subtract 144 from 179 to see how many people are left, here we get 35. Since there are 7 booths, we divide 35 by 7 to get 5. Each booth holds 5 people.

(179-36x4)/7=5

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle F(b + 3) = b^2 + 4b + 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]\displaystlye F(x) = x^2 - 2x + 4[/tex]

And we want to find F(b + 3).

We can substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle F(b + 3) = (b + 3)^2 - 2(b+3) + 4[/tex]

Expand:

[tex]\displaystyle = (b^2 + 6b + 9) + (-2b -6) + 4[/tex]

Rearrange:

[tex]\displaystyle = (b^2) + (6b-2b) + (9 - 6 + 4)[/tex]

Combine like terms. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle = b^2 +4b + 7[/tex]

In conclusion:

[tex]\displaystyle F(b + 3) = b^2 + 4b + 7[/tex]

Answer:

8 1/8 units^3

Step-by-step explanation:

This figure is a rectangular prism, and the volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

lwh

But since we have the area of the base snd the height of the figure, there is also one formula that we can use to find the volume:

bh

Which means area of base times the height.

USE THE FORMULA bh:

16 1/4 x 1/2

= 65/4 x 1/2

= 65/8

SIMPLIFIED: 8 1/8

Volume is measured in cubic units

SO YOUR ANSWER IS 8 1/8 units^3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Everything is correct. But you forgot to add

x = 6 - square root of 26. The answer is

x = 6 + square root of 26 or

x = 6 - square root of 26

The probability is 1/9

We want to find the probability that the first drawn ball is even, and the second is odd.

The probability of randomly drawing an even ball will be equal to the quotient between the number of balls with even numbers and the total number of balls in the bucket.

We have a total of 10 balls (4 red ones and 6 black ones)

and 5 of these have even numbers (2, 4, 6, 8, 10)

Then the probability of drawing a ball with an even number first is:

p = 5/10 = 1/5

now we want to get a ball with an odd number.

notice that we already got a ball with an even number and we did not replace it, so now there are 9 balls left in the bucket, 5 odd ones, and 4 even ones.

The probability of getting an odd ball is computed in the same way thana above, as the quotient between the number of balls with odd numbers (5) and the total number of balls in the bucket (9)

q = 5/9

The joint probability (the probability that these two events happen together) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, so we will get:

P = p*q = (5/9)*(1/5) = 1/9

The probability is 1/9

Answer:

  about 3,160,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

"Increases at a rate proportional to population" means the growth is exponential. It can be modeled by the equation ...

  p = ab^t

We can find 'a' and 'b' using the given data points.

  100 = ab^(-4) . . . . . . . population 4 days ago

  100,000 = ab^(-2) . . . population 2 days ago

Dividing the second equation by the first, we find ...

  1000 = b^2

  b = 1000^(1/2)

Substituting for b in the first equation, we have ...

  100 = a(1000^(1/2))^(-4) = a(1000^-2)

  100,000,000 = a

Then the population model is ...

  p = 100,000,000×1000^(t/2)

__

Tomorrow (t=1), the population will be ...

  p = 100,000,000 × 1000^(1/2) ≈ 31.6 × 100,000,000

  p ≈ 3,160,000,000 . . . . . bacteria by tomorrow

Additional comment

We could write this as ...

  p = 10^(8+1.5t)

Then for t=1, this is p = 10^(8+1.5) = 10^0.5 × 10^9 = 3.16×10^9

Answer:

a) 0.1287 = 12.87% probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives

b) 0.2092 = 20.92% probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives.

c) 0.6621 = 66.21% probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives.

d) The expected number of defective drives in the sample is 6.6

Step-by-step explanation:

For each DVD, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a DVD being defective is independent of any other DVD, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

A company that produces DVD drives has a 12% defective rate.

This means that [tex]p = 0.12[/tex]

Let X represent the number of defectives in a random sample of 55 of their drives.

This means that [tex]n = 55[/tex]

a. What is the probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives?

This is [tex]P(X = 8)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{8}.(0.88)^{47} = 0.1287[/tex]

0.1287 = 12.87% probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives.

b. What is the probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives?

This is:

[tex]P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X \leq 8)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X \leq 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{55,0}.(0.12)^{0}.(0.88)^{55} = 0.0009[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{55,1}.(0.12)^{1}.(0.88)^{54} = 0.0066[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{55,2}.(0.12)^{2}.(0.88)^{53} = 0.0244[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{55,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{52} = 0.0588[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{55,4}.(0.12)^{4}.(0.88)^{51} = 0.1043[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{55,5}.(0.12)^{5}.(0.88)^{50} = 0.1450[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{6}.(0.88)^{49} = 0.1648[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{55,7}.(0.12)^{7}.(0.88)^{48} = 0.1573[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{8}.(0.88)^{47} = 0.1287[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) = 0.0009 + 0.0066 + 0.0244 + 0.0588 + 0.1043 + 0.1450 + 0.1648 + 0.1573 + 0.1287 = 0.7908[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X \leq 8) = 1 - 0.7908 = 0.2092[/tex]

0.2092 = 20.92% probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives.

c. What is the probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives?

This is:

[tex]P(X < 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]

With the values we found in b.

[tex]P(X < 8) = 0.0009 + 0.0066 + 0.0244 + 0.0588 + 0.1043 + 0.1450 + 0.1648 + 0.1573 = 0.6621[/tex]

0.6621 = 66.21% probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives.

d. What is the expected number of defective drives in the sample?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]E(X) = 55(0.12) = 6.6[/tex]

The expected number of defective drives in the sample is 6.6
