What second degree polynomial function has a leading coefficient of -2 and root 4 with a multiplicity of 2

The second degree polynomial with leading coefficient of -2 and root 4 with multiplicity of 2 is:

p(x) = -2*(x - 4)*(x - 4) = -2*(x - 4)^2

<h3>How to write the polynomial?</h3>

A polynomial of degree N, with the N roots {x₁, ..., xₙ} and a leading coefficient a is written as:

p(x) = a*(x - x_1)*(x - x_2)*...*(x - x_n)

Here we know that the degree is 2, the only root is 4 (with a multiplicity of 2, this is equivalent to say that we have two roots at x = 4) and a leading coefficient equal to -2.

Then this polynomial is equal to:

p(x) = -2*(x - 4)*(x - 4) = -2*(x - 4)^2

Let X be a normal random variable with mean 40 and standard deviation 2. Find P(X &lt; 28).
Vikki [24]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean = 40 ; Standard deviation = 2

P(x < 28)

Obtain the Zscore :

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

P(Z < (28 - 40) / 2))

Z = (28 - 40) / 2

Z = - 12 / 2

Z = - 6

P(Z < - 6) = 0.000000

schepotkina [342]

Answer:  Choice B

There is not convincing evidence because the interval contains 0.

========================================================

Explanation:

The confidence interval is (-0.29, 0.09)

This is the same as writing -0.29 < p1-p1 < 0.09

The thing we're trying to estimate (p1-p2) is between -0.29 and 0.09

Because 0 is in this interval, it is possible that p1-p1 = 0 which leads to p1 = p2.

Therefore, it is possible that the population proportions are the same.

The question asks " is there convincing evidence of a difference in the true proportions", so the answer to this is "no, there isn't convincing evidence". We would need both endpoints of the confidence interval to either be positive together, or be negative together, for us to have convincing evidence that the population proportions are different.
