Answer:
a = -86.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Factor Theorem, if x + 4 is a factor then P(-4) = 0, so:
P(-4) = 2(-4)^3 - 11(-4)^2 + a(-4)- 40 = 0
-128 - 176 - 4a - 40 = 0
-4a = 128 +176 + 40
-4a = 344
a = -86.
Let, the height of the building be x ft.
Given the building casts 35ft shadow.
The height of the flagpole given which is 22ft and casts a shadow of 10ft.
Now to find the height of the building we have to equate the ratio of height and shadow of the building and the flagpole.
So we can write,
x/35 = 22/10
To find x, we have to get rid of 35 from the left side and have to move it to right side. As 35 is divided there, we will multiply 35 to both sides.
(x/35)× 35 = (22/10)×35
x = (22×35)/10
x = 770/10
x = 77
So, the height of the building is 77 ft which is the required answer here.
<u>Answer:</u>
37 minutes
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Lena has 20 dollars. 20 - 12.23 = 7.77
Lena has $7.77 dollars left.
We divide this by .21 to see how many minutes her call was.
7.77 ÷ .21 = 37

Nathan has an infection and he needs to be treated with penicillin
But there’s a 75% probability of him being allergic to penicillin
And to test if the skin reacts to penicillin, the test is 98% accuracy
So even if he has the allergy the test is only 98% accurate of identifying the allergy
Therefore we are asked to find the probability of both these events happening
Event 1 and event 2 both should happen then. When the ‘and’ function is used in probabilities then the probabilities of both events happening should be multiplied
Therefore probability that Nathan has the allergy and test predicts it is
= 75% x 98% = 0.735
The answer is D. 0.735
