Answer:
At least 68% of observations lie between 22 and 26 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 24
Standard deviation = 2
22 = 24 - 2
22 is one standard deviation below the mean
26 = 24 + 2
26 is one standard deviation above the mean.
So, by the empirical rule, at least 68% of observations lie between 22 and 26 months.
An 8th-degree polynomial needs 9 terms that involve
x⁸, x⁷, ..., x¹, and x⁰.
x=10 implies that (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial according to the Remainder theorem.
Let the polynomial be of the form
f(x) = a₁x⁸ + a₂x⁷ + a₃x⁶ +a₄x⁵ + a₅x⁴ + a₆x³ + a₇x² + a₈x + a₉
The first few lines of the synthetic division are
10 | a₁ a₂ a₃ a₄ a₅ a₆ a₇ a₈ a₉ ( the first row has 9 coefficients)

a₁
Answer:
The first row has 9 coefficients.
24/74 simplified is 12/37
It would be 31+t.
Unless there's more to this question.
