Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is another word for average. It is found by adding up all of the values, and dividing that number by the amount of values you added together.

You have 5 values that get a mean or, average, of 7.4

1) We can write this as the following:

(11+12+5+3+x)/5=7.4

2) To solve, multiply both sides by 5:

11+12+5+3+x=37

3) Now combine all of the numbers on the left:

31+x=37

4) Now subtract 31 from both sides:

x=6

The thickness of each type of coin is shown in the table. How much thicker is stack of dollars worth of nickels than a dollars w

Lilit [14]

Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:

Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm

Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.

Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm

Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57

Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.

a) The polynomial in expanded form is $f(x) = x^{3}-2\cdot x^{2}-21\cdot x -18$ .

b) The slant asymptote is represented by the linear function is $y = -x + 1$ .

c) There is a discontinuity at $x = 2$ with a slant asymptote.

a) In this question we are going to use the Factor Theorem, which establishes that polynomial are the result of products of binomials of the form $x-r_{i}$ , where $r_{i}$ is the i-th root of the polynomial and the grade is equal to the quantity of roots. Therefore, the polynomial $f(x)$ has the following form:

$f(x) = (x-6)\cdot (x+1)\cdot (x+3)$

And the expanded form is obtained by some algebraic handling:

$f(x) = (x-6)\cdot (x^{2}+4\cdot x +3)$

$f(x) = x\cdot (x^{2}+4\cdot x + 3)-6\cdot (x^{2}+4\cdot x +3)$

$f(x) = x^{3}+4\cdot x^{2}+3\cdot x -6\cdot x^{2}-24\cdot x -18$

$f(x) = x^{3}-2\cdot x^{2}-21\cdot x -18$ (1)

The polynomial in expanded form is $f(x) = x^{3}-2\cdot x^{2}-21\cdot x -18$ .

b) In this question we divide the polynomial found in a) (in factor form) by the polynomial $x^{2}-x -2$ (also in factor form). That is:

$g(x) = \frac{(x-6)\cdot (x+1)\cdot (x+3)}{(x-2)\cdot (x+1)}$

$g(x) = \frac{(x-6)\cdot (x+3)}{x-2}$ (2)

The slant asymptote is defined by linear function, whose slope ( $m$ ) and intercept ( $b$ ) are determined by the following expressions:

$m = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \frac{g(x)}{x}$ (3)

$b = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} [g(x)-x]$ (4)

If $g(x) = \frac{(x-6)\cdot (x+3)}{x-2}$ , then the equation of the slant asymptote is:

$m = \lim_{x \to 2} \frac{(x-6)\cdot (x+3)}{x\cdot (x-2)}$

$m = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \left(\frac{x^{2}-3\cdot x -18}{x^{2}-2\cdot x} \right)$

$m = 1$

$b = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \left(\frac{x^{2}-3\cdot x -18}{x-2}-x \right)$

$b = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \left(\frac{x^{2}-3\cdot x - 18-x^{2}+2\cdot x}{x-2}\right)$

$b = \lim_{n \to \infty} \left(\frac{-x-18}{x-2} \right)$

$b = -1$

The slant asymptote is represented by the linear function is $y = -x + 1$ .

c) The number of discontinuities in rational functions is equal to the number of binomials in the denominator, which was determined in b). Hence, we have a discontinuity at $x = 2$ with a slant asymptote.
