Polynomials are mathematical expressions involving variables raised with non-negative integers and coefficients. The correct option is B.

What is a polynomial?

Polynomials are mathematical expressions involving variables raised with non-negative integers and coefficients(constants who are in multiplication with those variables) and constants with only operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative exponentiation of variables involved.

Example:

 x² + 3x + 5

In order to find the values at which the given polynomial will have zeros of the function, we need to find the values at which f(x) changes from positive to negative or vice versa. Since this is the range at which the function must have crossed the x-axis on the graph.

As per the given table, the value of f(x) is changing from negative to positive and positive to negative are between 2.5 and 3.0 and between 4.0 and 4.5.

Hence, the correct option is B.

The school play sold $550 in tickets one night. The number of $8 adult tickets was 10 less than twice the number of $5 child tickets. How many tickets were sold for the adults vs the child tickets?

Answers

Answer:

This is my answer↓:

Step-by-step explanation:

He school play sold $550 in tickets one night.

The number of $8 adult tickets was 10 less than twice the number of

$5 child tickets.

How many of each ticket were sold

Let say child ticket sold = x

Adult tickets was 10 less than twice the number of    child tickets.

=> Adult ticket sold = 2x - 10

Child ticket sold = x

$5 child tickets price

=> Revenue = 5x  $

Adult ticket sold = 2x - 10

$8 Adult tickets price

=> Revenue = 8(2x - 10) =16x - 80 $

5x + 16x - 80 = 550

=> 21x = 630

=> x = 30

Child ticket sold = 30

Adult ticket sold = 50

Total ticket sold = 80

Given that a is rational and √2 is irrational and a is not equal to 2, show that. √2-1 is irrational​

Answers

Answer:

Let us assume that √2 is a rational number.

So it can be expressed in the form p/q where p, q are co-prime integers and q≠0

√2 = p/q

Here p and q are coprime numbers and q ≠ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

√2 = p/q

On squaring both the sides we get,

=>2 = (p/q)2

=> 2q2 = p2……………………………..(1)

p2/2 = q2

So 2 divides p and p is a multiple of 2.

⇒ p = 2m

⇒ p² = 4m² ………………………………..(2)

From equations (1) and (2), we get,

2q² = 4m²

⇒ q² = 2m²

⇒ q² is a multiple of 2

⇒ q is a multiple of 2

Hence, p, q have a common factor 2. This contradicts our assumption that they are co-primes. Therefore, p/q is not a rational number

√2 is an irrational number.

Graph A: A horizontal line goes from (1, 0.5) to (2, 0.5). Another horizontal line goes form (2, 0.2) to (7, (0, 2). Graph B: A curve starts at (0, 0), curves up to (1, 1), and then curves down to (2, 0).




Which graph represents a density curve, and why?


graph A only, because the curve is above the horizontal axis, and the area under the curve from 2 to 7 is 1


graph B only, because the curve is above the horizontal axis, and the area under the curve is equal to 1.57


both graph A and graph B, because both curves are above the horizontal axis, and both areas are positive


neither graph A nor graph B, because, even though both curves are above the horizontal axis, neither graph has an area of 1


Pictures posted below

Answers

Answer: neither graph A nor graph B, because, even though both curves are above the horizontal axis, neither graph has an area of 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Areas under the graphs:

Graph A

[tex](1)(0.5)+(7-2)(0.2)=1.5\\\\[/tex]

Graph B

[tex]\frac{\pi}{2}(1^{2})=\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

As neither of these graphs have an area of 1, neither of them are density curves.

The statement - "neither graph A nor graph B, because, even though both curves are above the horizontal axis, neither graph has an area of 1" is true.

A few fundamental principles apply to density curves:

A density curve's area beneath it represents probability.A density curve's area under it equals one.Base x height in a uniform density curve equals one.The likelihood that x = a will never occur.The likelihood that x < a is the same as that of x ≤ a.

Neither curve of Graph A nor of Graph B has the area under the curve summed up as 1, though the curve is above the horizontal axis.

Hence, because neither graph has an area of 1, even if both curves are above the horizontal axis, the statement "neither graph A nor graph B, because, even though both curves are above the horizontal axis, neither graph has an area of 1" is true.

how would you solve 4c + 11 = -25? explain how in complete sentences and list the solution. (yall im so lost in class rn, i need this)

Answers

Answer:

c = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

4c + 11 = -25

4c = -25 - 11

4c = -36

c = -36 : 4

c = -9

or

4c + 11 + 25 = 0

4c + 36 = 0

c = (-36)/4

c = -9

-------------------

check

4 *(-9) + 11 = -25

-36 + 11 = -25

-25 = -25

the answer is good

Answer:

c= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4c + 11 = -25

2. Put all like terms together and change the sign. In this case, the +11 will go to the right with the -25 and it will become -11.

Therefore:

4c= -25 -11

4c= -36

3. Make c the subject. Since 4 is being multiplied by c, when it goes to the right, it will divide.

Therefore:

c= -36/4

c= -9

Answers

Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going from a smaller triangle to a larger triangle, so the scale factor is greater than 1.

Eliminate A and D.

We know scale factor = (image)/(preimage), so the scale factor is 32/4 = 8

The scale factor of dilation of the triangle is k = 8

What is Dilation?

Resizing an item uses a transition called Dilation. Dilation is used to enlarge or contract the items. The result of this transformation is an image with the same shape as the original. However, there is a variation in the shape's size. Dilation transformations ensure that the shape will stay the same and that corresponding angles will be congruent

The result of dilation is that the shapes and boundaries of objects in the input image are expanded or thickened. It is often used in conjunction with other morphological operations such as erosion, opening, and closing to manipulate and enhance images.

Given data ,

Let the first triangle be represented as ΔABC

Let the second triangle be represented as ΔDEF

where the measures of sides of ΔABC are

AB = 6 , BC = 6 and AC = 4

The measure of sides of triangle ΔDEF are

DE = 48 , EF = 48 and DF = 32

The scale factor of dilation k = measure of side DE / measure of side AB

k = 48 / 6

k = 8

Hence , the dilation factor is k =8

Suppose a bag contains a set of 10 tiled letters: M, T, O, A, T, P, J, A, K, A You draw a tile from the bag, and record the letter and leave it on the table. You shake up the bag, and draw another tile out of the bag. Calculate the probability you will select the letter M on the first draw and the Letter T on the second draw?

Answers

Answer:

1/90

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

To begin with, there are 10 tiles.. You draw one and don't replace it. Then you draw another tile from the 9 that remain.  The job is to figure out the probability of that happening.

You have a 1/10 chance of drawing the M.

But now there are only 9 tiles left and you have a 1 in 9 chance of drawing a T

Solution

P(M,T) = 1/10 * 1/9 = 1 / 90

You have a 1 in 90 chance of getting the two tiles in the order you have specified.

If x is a positive integer, what is the value of x for the equation (x!-(x-3)!)\23=1?

Answers

[tex]\dfrac{x!-(x-3)!}{23}=1\\x!-(x-3)!=23\\(x-3)!((x-2)(x-1)x-1)=23\\(x-3)!((x^3-x^2-2x^2+2x)-1)=23\\(x-3)!((x^3-3x^2+2x)-1)=23[/tex]

23 is a prime number, therefore there are two possibilities:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution by substitution method

3x+5y=7

and 4x-y=5

Suppose,

3x+5y=7→(1)

and 4x-y=5→(2)

Taking equation (2), we have

4x-y=5

⇒y=4x-5→(3)

Putting y=4x-5 in equation (1), we get

3x+5y=7

⇒3x+5(4x-5)=7

⇒3x+20x-25=7

⇒23x-25=7

⇒23x=7+25

⇒23x=32

⇒x=32/23

→(4)

Now, Putting x=32/23

in equation (3), we get

y=4x-5

⇒y=4(32/23)-5

⇒y=(128-115)/23

⇒y=13/23

∴y=13/23   and x=32/23

Solving a quadratic equation, the age of the man with a blood pressure of 125 mmHg is of 27 years old.

What is a quadratic function?

A quadratic function is given according to the following rule:

[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

The solutions are:

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}[/tex][tex]x_2 = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

The pressure is given by:

P = 0.006A² - 0.02A + 120.

When the pressure is of 125 mmHg, we have that:

0.006A² - 0.02A + 120 = 125.

0.006A² - 0.02A - 5 = 0.

Hence the coefficients are a = 0.006, b = -0.02, c = -5, and the solutions, applying the formula are:
