To evaluate the probability that the lifespan will be between 1440 and 1465 hours will be given by:
P(1440<x<1465)
using the z-score formula we obtain:
z=(x-μ)/σ
where:
μ=1450
σ=8.5
hence
when x=1440
z=(1440-1450)/8.5
z=-1.18
P(z<-1.18)=0.1190

when x=1465
z=(1465-1450)/8.5
z=1.77
P(z<1.77)=0.9625

hence:
P(1440<x<1465)
=0.9625-0.1180
=0.8445

What are the rational roots of the polynomial f(x) = 20x^4 + x^3 +8x^2 + x-12
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x = 3/4 and x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

20x⁴ + x³ + 8x² + x − 12

Group:

(20x⁴ + 8x² − 12) + (x³ + x)

Factor:

4 (5x⁴ + 2x² − 3) + x (x² + 1)

4 (5x² − 3) (x² + 1) + x (x² + 1)

(x² + 1) (4 (5x² − 3) + x)

(x² + 1) (20x² + x − 12)

(x² + 1) (4x − 3) (5x + 4)

So the rational roots are x = 3/4 and x = -4/5.
