Answer:

{ 0, 3, - 3 }

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x(2x - 3)(x + 3)

to find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

x(2x - 3)(x + 3) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x = 0

2x - 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 3 ⇒ x = $\frac{3}{2}$

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

zeros are { 0, $\frac{3}{2}$ , - 3 }

The box plots show the math scores of students in two different classes. Based on the box plots, which statement is correct?

Allisa [31]

Based on the box plots, the statement which is correct is that: A. The median score of Class A is greater than the median score of Class B.

<h3>What is a box and whisker plot?</h3>

In Mathematics, a box plot is also referred to as box and whisker plot and it can be defined as a type of chart that can be used to graphically or visually represent the five-number summary of a data set with respect to locality, skewness, and spread.

Additionally, the five-number summary of any box plot (box and whisker plot) include the following:

Minimum
First quartile
Median
Third quartile
Maximum

By critically observing the box plot (box and whisker plot) which represent the math scores of students in in two different classes, we can reasonably and logically deduce the following median scores;

Median score of class A = 80

Median score of class B = 75

Therefore, a median score of 80 in Class A is greater than the median score of 75 in Class B.

A study of long-distance phone calls made from General Electric's corporate headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, revealed the

Answer:

a) 0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

b) 0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

c) 0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

d) 0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

e) They last at least 4.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 3.6, \sigma = 0.4$

(a) What fraction of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.6.

X = 4.2

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

X = 3.6

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{3.6 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5

0.9332 - 0.5 = 0.4332

0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

(b) What fraction of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

(c) What fraction of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

X = 5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 4.2

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

0.9998 - 0.9332 = 0.0666

0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

(d) What fraction of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

X = 5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 3

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{3 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.9998 - 0.0668 = 0.9330

0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

(e) As part of her report to the president, the director of communications would like to report the length of the longest (in duration) 4% of the calls. What is this time?

At least X minutes

X is the 100-4 = 96th percentile, which is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.96. So X when Z = 1.75.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$1.75 = \frac{X - 3.6}{0.4}$
