<h3>Answer: </h3>
The GCF is 4
The polynomial factors to ![4(3x^2+x+5)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%283x%5E2%2Bx%2B5%29)
==========================================================
Further explanation:
Ignore the x terms
We're looking for the GCF of 12, 4 and 20
Factor each to their prime factorization. It might help to do a factor tree, but this is optional.
- 12 = 2*2*3
- 4 = 2*2
- 20 = 2*2*5
Each factorization involves "2*2", which means 2*2 = 4 is the GCF here.
We can then factor like so
![12x^2 + 4x + 20\\\\4*3x^2 + 4*x + 4*5\\\\4(3x^2 + x + 5)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=12x%5E2%20%2B%204x%20%2B%2020%5C%5C%5C%5C4%2A3x%5E2%20%2B%204%2Ax%20%2B%204%2A5%5C%5C%5C%5C4%283x%5E2%20%2B%20x%20%2B%205%29)
The distributive property pulls out that common 4. We can verify this by distributing the 4 back in, so we get the original expression back again.
The polynomial inside the parenthesis cannot be factored further. Proof of this can be found by looking at the roots and noticing that they aren't rational numbers (use the quadratic formula).
Answer:
The probability that the maximum speed is at most 49 km/h is 0.8340.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable<em> </em><em>X</em> be defined as the maximum speed of a moped.
The random variable <em>X</em> is Normally distributed with mean, <em>μ</em> = 46.8 km/h and standard deviation, <em>σ</em> = 1.75 km/h.
To compute the probability of a Normally distributed random variable we first need to convert the raw score of the random variable to a standardized or <em>z</em>-score.
The formula to convert <em>X</em> into <em>z</em>-score is:
![z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%3D%5Cfrac%7BX-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D)
Compute the probability that the maximum speed is at most 49 km/h as follows:
Apply continuity correction:
P (X ≤ 49) = P (X < 49 - 0.50)
= P (X < 48.50)
![=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3DP%28%5Cfrac%7BX-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%3C%5Cfrac%7B48.50-46.80%7D%7B1.75%7D%29%5C%5C%3DP%28Z%3C0.97%29%5C%5C%3D0.83398%5C%5C%5Capprox%200.8340)
*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that the maximum speed is at most 49 km/h is 0.8340.
