Okay. To find the distance apart from each other, subtract 15.3 and 7.5. When you do that, you should get 7.8. -7.5 and -15.3 are 7.8 units away on a number line.
Answer:
P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: P(x)=x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144
It is a polynomial with degree 4.
It should maximum four factor.
Hit and trial error method.
Put x = 2 into P(x)
P(2)=2⁴+3×2³-28×2²-36×2+144
P(2) = 0
So, x-2 would be factor of P(x)
Now divide x⁴+3x³-28x²-36x+144 by x-2 to get another factors


Put x = 4
now divide
by x-4


Now factor 
Complete factor of P(x)
P(x)=(x-2)(x-4)(x+3)(x+6)
Answer:
P ( snowboard I ski) = 0.5714
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Ski
Event B: Snowboard.
28 out of 120 students ski:
This means that 
16 out of 120 do both:
This means that 
P ( snowboard I ski)

So
P ( snowboard I ski) = 0.5714
