M(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x
Let us first find the zeros of the function.
That is when it is equal to zero.
m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 0
x(4x^2 - 5x - 7) = 0. Therefore x = 0 or 4x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0.
Using a quadratic function calculator to solve 4x^2 - 5x - 7
x = 2.09, -0.84
Therefore the zeros are x =-0.84, 0, 2.09 for the function m(x).
The intervals observed are imagining that the zeros are on the number line:
x<-0.84, -0.84<x<0, 0<x<2.09, x>2.09.
For each of this range we would test the function with a number that falls in the range.
The function is decreasing in the interval where it is less than 0.
For x<-0.84, let us test x = -1, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 4(-1)^3 - 5(-1)^2 - 7(-1) = -4 -5 +7 = -2, -2 < 0, so it is decreasing here.
For -0.84<x<0, let us test x = -0.5, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 4(-0.5)^3 - 5(-0.5)^2 - 7(-0.5) = -0.5 -1.25 +3.5 = 1.75, 1.75 >0. It is not decreasing.
For 0<x<2.09, let us test x = 1, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x =
4(1)^3 - 5(1)^2 - 7(1) = 4 -5 -7 = -8, -8 <0. It is decreasing.
For x>2.09, let us test x = 3, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x =
4(3)^3 - 5(3)^2 - 7(3) = 108 -45 -21 = 42, 42 >0. It is not decreasing.
So the function is decreasing in the intervals:
x < -0.84, & 0<x<2.09.
Steps: -2/9+3/9
-2+3/9
Answer: 1/9
You just put the scale of one building on one side and the scale of the similar building on other side, with width and length written in same place (denominator or numerator). With x for the part that you dont know
Length of one building / width of one building = length of other building / width of other building
12 / 9 = 100 / x
Solve for x, by cross-multiplying
12 * x = 100 * 9
12x = 900
X = 900/12
X = 75 ft
Answer: 0.009
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula we use here : Binomial distribution formula
Probability of getting success sin x trial =
, where n is the sample size and p is the probability of success in each trial .
Given : A study conducted at a certain college shows that 65% of the school's graduates find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation.
i.e. p= 0.65
Sample size : n= 11
Now, the probability that 11 randomly selected graduates all find jobs in their chosen field within a year of graduating:-
Hence, the probability that 11 randomly selected graduates all find jobs in their chosen field within a year of graduating = 0.009
