The function f(x) is a cubic function and the zeros of f(x) are -6, -3 and 1. The
y-intercept of f(x) is 90. Write the equation of the cubic polynomial in standard
form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]P(x)=-5x^3-40x^2-45x+90[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a Polynomial

Given the roots x1, x2, and x3 of a cubic polynomial, the equation can be written as:

[tex]P(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)(x-x3)[/tex]

Where a is the leading coefficient.

We know the three roots of the polynomial -6, -3, and 1, thus:

[tex]P(x)=a(x+6)(x+3)(x-1)[/tex]

Since the y-intercept of the polynomial is y=90 when x=0:

90=a(0+6)(0+3)(0-1)

90=a(6)(3)(-1)=-18a

Thus

a = 90/(-18) = -5

The polynomial is:

[tex]P(x)=-5(x+6)(x+3)(x-1)[/tex]

We must write it in standard form, so we have to multiply all of the factors as follows:

[tex]P(x)=-5(x^2+6x+3x+18)(x-1)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=-5(x^2+9x+18)(x-1)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=-5(x^3-x^2+9x^2-9x+18x-18)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=-5(x^3+8x^2+9x-18)[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{P(x)=-5x^3-40x^2-45x+90}[/tex]

A sculptor has just finished creating a large wooden sphere for a sculpture he is working on. The sphere has a radius of 4.3 feet and weighs approximately 10,578.59 pounds. What is the approximate density of the wood used to create the sphere? I need help

Answers

density = mass/volume

the mass is 10578.9 pounds

the volume of a sphere is v = 4/3 πr^3

v = (4/3) (π) (4.3)^3
v = 333.04

10578.9 / 333.04 = 31.76

the final density is 31.76!!

Garth has a summer job and earns $9.32 per hour. One week, he works 16 34 hours. He deposits $150 in a bank and decides to use the rest of the money to buy raffle tickets. Each raffle ticket costs $0.50. How many raffle tickets can Garth buy?

Answers

Answer:

12 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Earning = $9.32 per hourWork hours = 16 3/4 = 16.75

Earning in week:

$9.32*16.75 = $156.11

Remaining money after he deposits $150:

$156.11 - $150 = $6.11

How many raffle tickets can be bought:

$6.11/$0.50 = 12 and $0.11 remains

A company wants to test clear deck sealants for weather resistance. Three brands of sealants will be tested using 60 pieces of decking wood. The company wants to create treatment groups of 20 pieces of wood each, and decide to randomize using slips of paper. Select all the approaches that would result in comparable treatment groups. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are each written on 20 slips of paper, and the slips are placed in a hat and shaken well. The top piece of wood from a stack is selected and a slip of paper is drawn from the hat. That piece of wood is assigned to the group number on the slip. The slip of paper is returned to the hat. This continues until all pieces of wood have been assigned to a group. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are written on three slips of paper, put into a hat, and shaken well. A slip is drawn and the first 20 pieces of wood on the stack are assigned to the group number on the slip. Another slip is drawn and the next 20 pieces of wood are assigned to that group. The remaining pieces of wood are assigned to the remaining group. Each piece of decking wood is assigned a number from 1 to 60. The numbers 1–60 are written on slips of paper and placed in a hat and shaken well. Twenty slips are drawn, shaking the hat after each slip of paper is drawn, and the pieces of wood corresponding to those numbers are placed in group 1. Twenty more slips are drawn in the same way, and the pieces of wood corresponding to those numbers are placed in group 2. The pieces of wood corresponding to the numbers on the remaining slips are placed in group 3. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are each written on 20 slips of paper (20 for each number) and the slips are placed in a hat and shaken well. The top piece of wood from a stack is selected, and a slip of paper is drawn from the hat. That piece of wood is assigned to the group number on the slip. The slip of paper is not returned to the hat. This continues until all pieces of wood have been assigned to a group.

11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to use this equation to solve it [r = (1/t)(A/P - 1)] and basically just plug the numbers in to get 11.5. (you could also use one of those online calculators)

r = (1/2)((4920/4000) - 1) = 0.115

A publisher reports that 55% of their readers own a laptop. A marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage. A random sample of 280 found that 51% of the readers owned a laptop. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.05 level.

Answers

Answer:

We fail to reject the null hypothesis, we accept H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

Population proportion        p₀   =  55 %    p₀   =  0,55

Sample  size         n  =  280

Sample mean     p =  51 %            p =  0,51       q = 0,49

n*p   and  n*q   are both bigger than 10 therefore we can approximate the binomial distribution to a normal distribution

Test  Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                             H₀                   p   =  p₀

Alternative Hypothesis                Hₐ                    p   ≠  p₀

Significance level is  α  = 0,05    but we have a two-tail test then

α/2  =  0,025

z(c)  =  - 1,96

Computing  z(s)

z(s)  =  ( p - p₀ ) / √(p*q)/n

z(s)  =  ( 0,51 - 0,55 ) / √(0,51*0,49)/280

z(s)  =  - 0,04 * 16,73 / 0,5

z(s)  =  -  1,34

Comparing

z(s)   and z(c)

- 1,34    <    - 1,96

| z(s) | < | z(c)|

Then z(s) is in the acceptance region,  we accept H₀

Usually Holly leaves home to school at 9:00, however today she left home 20 minutes later. In order to be at school on time she increased her usual speed by 20% and still was at school 15 minutes later than usual. What is her usual time from home to school

Answers

Answer:

Her usual time from home to school is 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

At any point in time;

distance = speed * time

Here, we want to calculate the normal time she spent going from home to school

Let the normal time be x minutes

And the normal speed be t m/min

Today, she increased her speed by 20%

Her speed today will be t + 20/100 * t =

1.2t m/min

Her distance from how to school normally is

xt meters

Now what this means is that, at the increased speed, she was able to get to school 5 minutes earlier

What we are saying is although, she lost 20 minutes initially, she was able to beat down the lateness by 5 minutes

So, the time spent on her increased speed journey is;

(x-5) minutes

At any point in time, the distance will be equal;

Thus, mathematically;

xt = 1.2t(x-5)

xt = 1.2xt - 6t

6t = 1.2xt-xt

6t = 0.2xt

t cancels out

0.2x = 6

x = 6/0.2

x = 30 minutes

The waiting time for a bus has a uniform distribution between 2 and 13 minutes. What is the probability that the waiting time for this bus is less than 4.5 minutes on a given day

Answers

Answer: 0.2273

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability density function for uniform distribution is given by :-

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{1}{b-a}[/tex], where x is uniformly distributed in [a,b].

Let x denotes the waiting time for this bus.

Given : The waiting time for a bus has a uniform distribution between 2 and 13 minutes.

Probability distribution function of x for interval [2,13] will be :-

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac1{13-2}=\dfrac{1}{11}[/tex]

Required probability : P(x<4.5) = [tex]\int^{4.5}_{2}f(x)\ dx[/tex]

[tex]=\int^{4.5}_{2}\dfrac1{11}\ dx\\\\=\dfrac1{11}[x]^{4.5}_{2}\\\\ = \dfrac1{11}(4.5-2)\\\\=\dfrac1{11}(2.5)\approx0.2273[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the waiting time for this bus is less than 4.5 minutes on a given day = 0.2273

The volume of a right rectangle prism is found by multiplying the length of the base by the width of the base by the height of the prism. A right rectangular prism has a volume of 50 cubic inches. If the height of the prism is 4 inches, what is the area of the base of the prism?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  12.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the base can be written as ...

  B = LW

Then the volume formula ...

  V = LWH

can be written in terms of the base area as ...

  V = BH

The base area can be found by dividing by the height:

  B = V/H = (50 in³)/(4 in) = 12.5 in²

The area of the base is 12.5 square inches.
