Answer:

p = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x² + px - 3)(3x - 5)

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

x²(3x - 5) + px(3x - 5) - 3(3x - 5) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3x³ - 5x² + 3px² - 5px - 9x + 15 ← collect like terms

= 3x³ +x²(3p - 5) - x(5p + 9) + 15

given the coefficient of the x- term is - 44 , then

-(5p + 9) = - 44 ← - (5p + 9) is th coefficient of x in the expansion

- 5p - 9 = - 44 ( add 9 to both sides )

- 5p = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

p = 7

if a lake has high alkalinity, what is closest to the probability that the lake also has a shallow depth?
never [62]

Answer:

0.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability distribution is the function which describes the likelihood of possible values assuming a random variable. The alkalinity of lake is determined by dividing the high shallow depthness by the total of lake alkalinity. The shallow depth is 209 and the total alkalinity of the lake is 966. By dividing the depthness with alkalinity we get 0.22.

209/966 = 0.219

approximately 0.22
