The zeros are -8, -1, 2, so you can write the function as f(x)=(x-(-8))(x-(-1))(x-2)=(x+8)(x+1)(x-2).

Expand:
(x+8)(x+1)(x-2)= \\
(x^2+x+8x+8)(x-2)= \\
(x^2+9x+8)(x-2)= \\
x^3-2x^2+9x^2-18x+8x-16= \\
x^3+7x^2-10x-16

The function is f(x)=x³+7x²-10x-16.
The missing value is 7.

The annual rainfall (in inches) in a certain region is normally distributed with = 40 and = 4. What is the probability that star
sdas [7]

Answer:

0.93970

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Denote a random variable "X" The annual rainfall (in inches) in a certain region . The random variable follows a normal distribution with parameters mean ( μ ) and standard deviation ( σ ) as follows:

                          X ~ Norm ( μ , σ^2 )

                          X ~ Norm ( 40 , 4^2 ).

- The probability that it rains more than 50 inches in that certain region is defined by:

                          P ( X > 50 )

- We will standardize our test value and compute the Z-score:

                          P ( Z > ( x - μ )  / σ )

Where, x : The test value

                          P (  Z > ( 50 - 40 )  / 4 )

                          P (  Z > 2.5 )

- Then use the Z-standardize tables for the following probability:

                          P ( Z < 2.5 ) = 0.0062

Therefore,          P ( X > 50 ) = 0.0062

- The probability that it rains in a certain region above 50 inches annually. is defined by:

                           q = 0.0062 ,

- The probability that it rains in a certain region rains below 50 inches annually. is defined by:

                           1 - q = 0.9938

                           n = 10 years   ..... Sample of n years taken

- The random variable "Y" follows binomial distribution for the number of years t it takes to rain over 50 inches.

                          Y ~ Bin ( 0.9938 , 0.0062 )

- The probability that it takes t = 10 years for it to rain:

                         =  10C10* ( 0.9938 )^10 * ( 0.0062 )^0

                         = ( 0.9938 )^10

                         = 0.93970

You’re trying to find the better buy so you want to find out how much you’re paying per unit (in this case kg)

So you divide the price by the unit (kg)

And find the better buy by looking at which price is cheapest.

Your answer is the 7.48 kg bag


Hope this helps and good luck!!
