If (x+2) is a factor of x^3-6x^2+kx+10, k=

Alja [10]

If a binomial $(x-a)$ is a factor of a polynomial, then $a$ is a root of this polynomial.

$(x+2)=(x-(-2)) \Rightarrow a=-2\\\\
(-2)^3-6\cdot(-2)^2+k\cdot(-2)+10=0\\
-8-24-2k+10=0\\
-2k=22\\\
\boxed{k=-11}

The bread is on sale for $1.50 so Erica is also going to buy candy or gum. Which can she afford?

Alborosie

Ok, so she started off with $5.00.

She bought milk for $2.99.

She buys bread, which costs $1.50.

Subtracting the money she wasted, the total would be $0.51.

The only thing she could buy is 5 pieces of gum for 25 cents.

Her change will be $0.26.

Hope this helps!

Dr bell donated 2(3x+60) dollars to the salvation army, 5x dollars to the church and $100 to a sport shop. If he donated a total

Andreyy89

He donated $285 to the salvation army.
The first thing to do is solve for "x". The equation would be {2(3x+60)}+5x+100=550.
Then, you would multiply 2 with 3x and 60. Your new equation would be 5x+120+5x+100=550.
Next, you would combine like terms. This means to combine the terms that are similar. In this case, it would be the whole numbers and the numbers with the variable. Your new equation would be 10x+220=550.
After that, you subtract 220 on both sides of the equal sign. This makes the equation 10x=330.
Then, you divide ten on both sides of the equal sign, giving you x=33.
The second things to is replace the x with 33. The amount for the salvation army is 5x+120. Replacing 33 with x, your final equation will be 165+120=$285.

Have a great day!!! :)

In a process that manufactures bearings, 90% of the bearings meet a thickness specification. A shipment contains 500 bearings. A

vredina [299]

Answer:

c) P(270≤x≤280)=0.572

d) P(x=280)=0.091

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of bearings have a proportion p=0.90 of satisfactory thickness.

The shipments will be treated as random samples, of size n=500, taken out of the population of bearings.

As the sample size is big, we will model the amount of satisfactory bearings per shipment as a normally distributed variable (if the sample was small, a binomial distirbution would be more precise and appropiate).

The mean of this distribution will be:

$\mu_s=np=500*0.90=450$

The standard deviation will be:

$\sigma_s=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{500*0.90*0.10}=\sqrt{45}=6.7$

We can calculate the probability that a shipment is acceptable (at least 440 bearings meet the specification) calculating the z-score for X=440 and then the probability of this z-score:

$z=(x-\mu_s)/\sigma_s=(440-450)/6.7=-10/6.7=-1.49\\\\P(z>-1.49)=0.932$

Now, we have to create a new sampling distribution for the shipments. The size is n=300 and p=0.932.

The mean of this sampling distribution is:

$\mu=np=300*0.932=279.6$

The standard deviation will be:

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{300*0.932*0.068}=\sqrt{19}=4.36$

c) The probability that between 270 and 280 out of 300 shipments are acceptable can be calculated with the z-score and using the continuity factor, as this is modeled as a continuos variable:

$P(270\leq x\leq280)=P(269.5$

d) The probability that 280 out of 300 shipments are acceptable can be calculated using again the continuity factor correction:

$P(X=280)=P(279.5$

How many distinct pairs of perfect squares differ by 35? (the pair $a, b$ is the same as the pair $b, a$.)?

Phantasy [73]

35 has 4 divisors, hence two factor pairs: 1*35 and 5*7. Each corresponds to a set of perfect squares that differ by 35

One pair is ((35±1)/2)^2 = {17^2, 18^2} = {289, 324}
The other is ((7±5)/2)^2 = {1^2, 6^2} = {1, 36}
