Question 1 of 10
1 answer:
The remainder is 8 in the given synthetic division problem. which is the correct answer would be option (B).
<h3>What is the division operation?</h3>In mathematics, divides left-hand operands into right-hand operands in the division operation.
In the given synthetic division, the coefficients of terms are 4,6, and -2.
Fill in the first coefficient as it appears on the bottom line.
Now multiply 1 by 4 and write the result (i.e., 4) underneath the second coefficient in the center line.
Now multiply 6 by 4 and write the result (i.e., 10) in the bottom row.
Now multiply 1 by 10 and write the result (i.e., 10) below the third coefficient in the center line.
Now add -2 with 10 and write the result (i.e., 8) in the bottom row.
The first two terms now indicate the polynomial coefficient, while the last term shows the remainder.
Therefore, the remainder is 8 in the given synthetic division problem.

Answer:
220 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this question:
If you pick 22 fruits at random, then 3% of the time, their mean weight will be greater than how many grams?
We have to find the 100 - 3 = 97th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.97. So X when Z = 1.88.
By the Central Limit Theorem
The answer is 220 grams.
