The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "D.The distributions are somewhat similar; C.The distributions are similar." Data Set 1 has a mean of 84 and a MAD of 6. Data Set 2 has a mean of 78 and a MAD of 8. You conclude about the two distributions: .The distributions are somewhat similar; <span>The distributions are similar.</span>

Explanation:
Factoring to linear factors generally involves finding the roots of the polynomial.
The two rules that are taught in Algebra courses for finding real roots of polynomials are ...
- Descartes' rule of signs: the number of positive real roots is equal to the number of coefficient sign changes when the polynomial is written in standard form.
- Rational root theorem: possible rational roots will have a numerator magnitude that is a divisor of the constant, and a denominator magnitude that is a divisor of the leading coefficient when the coefficients of the polynomial are rational. (Trial and error will narrow the selection.)
In general, it is a difficult problem to find irrational real factors, and even more difficult to find complex factors. The methods for finding complex factors are not generally taught in beginning Algebra courses, but may be taught in some numerical analysis courses.
Formulas exist for finding the roots of quadratic, cubic, and quartic polynomials. Above 2nd degree, they tend to be difficult to use, and may produce results that are less than easy to use. (The real roots of a cubic may be expressed in terms of cube roots of a complex number, for example.)

Personally, I find a graphing calculator to be exceptionally useful for finding real roots. A suitable calculator can find irrational roots to calculator precision, and can use that capability to find a pair of complex roots if there is only one such pair.
There are web apps that will find all roots of virtually any polynomial of interest.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Some algebra courses teach iterative methods for finding real zeros. These can include secant methods, bisection, and Newton's method iteration. There are anomalous cases that make use of these methods somewhat difficult, but they generally can work well if an approximate root value can be found.
Answer: 232 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Total digits = 588
1 digit page number:
1 to 9 = 1 × 9 = 9
Number of pages = 9/1 = 9
2 - digit page number :
10 - 99 = 2 × 90 = 180
Number of pages = 180/2 = 90
3 - digit page number :
588 - (9 + 180) = 588 - 189 = 399
Number of pages with 3 - digits = 399/3 = 133
Therefore, the total number of pages the book has is :
(9 + 90 + 133) = 232 pages
The solution to the system of equations is (-3.88, 0.66) and (3.04, 1.09)
<h3>How to determine the solution to the
system of equations?</h3>
The system of equations is given as:
x^2y + yx^2 = 20
1/x + 1/y = 5/4
Multiply through the equation 1/x + 1/y = 5/4 by 4xy
So, we have:
4x + 4y = 5xy
So, we have the following system of equations
4x + 4y = 5xy
x^2y + yx^2 = 20
Next, we plot the graph of the system of equations
4x + 4y = 5xy
x^2y + yx^2 = 20
See attachment for the graph of the system
From the attached system, we have the point of intersection to be
(x, y) = (-3.88, 0.66) and (3.04, 1.09)
Hence, the solution to the system of equations is (-3.88, 0.66) and (3.04, 1.09)
