Answer:

She is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

The fundamental theorem of algebra states that if a polinomial has a degree n, therefore has n roots. To fidn these roots the use of complex number imay be necesary .

For the equation, degree is 3, so there are 3 solutions.

According to a study done by a university​ student, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mou
Anon25 [30]

 Let X be a discrete binomial random variable.
 Let p = 0.267 be the probability that a person does not cover his mouth when sneezing.
 Let n = 18 be the number of independent tests.
 Let x be the number of successes.
 So, the probability that the 18 individuals, 8 do not cover their mouth after sneezing will be:

 a) P (X = 8) = 18! / (8! * 10!) * ((0.267) ^ 8) * ((1-0.267) ^ (18-8)).
 P (X = 8) = 0.0506.

 b) The probability that between 18 individuals observed at random less than 6 does not cover their mouth is:

 P (X = 5) + P (X = 4) + P (X = 3) + P (X = 2) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 0) = 0.6571.

 c) If it was surprising, according to the previous calculation, the probability that less than 6 people out of 18 do not cover their mouths is 66%. Which means it's less likely that more than half of people will not cover their mouths when they sneeze.

The radius of a cone is decreasing at a constant rate of 7 inches per second, and the volume is decreasing at a rate of 948 cubi
inessss [21]

Answer:

The height of cone is decreasing at a rate of 0.085131 inch per second.        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The radius of a cone is decreasing at a constant rate.

\displaystyle\frac{dr}{dt} = -7\text{ inch per second}

The volume is decreasing at a constant rate.

\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = -948\text{ cubic inch per second}

Instant radius = 99 inch

Instant Volume = 525 cubic inches

We have to find the rate of change of height with respect to time.

Volume of cone =

V = \displaystyle\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

Instant volume =

525 = \displaystyle\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h = \frac{1}{3}\pi (99)^2h\\\\\text{Instant heigth} = h = \frac{525\times 3}{\pi(99)^2}

Differentiating with respect to t,

\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi \bigg(2r\frac{dr}{dt}h + r^2\frac{dh}{dt}\bigg)

Putting all the values, we get,

\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi \bigg(2r\frac{dr}{dt}h + r^2\frac{dh}{dt}\bigg)\\\\-948 = \frac{1}{3}\pi\bigg(2(99)(-7)(\frac{525\times 3}{\pi(99)^2}) + (99)(99)\frac{dh}{dt}\bigg)\\\\\frac{-948\times 3}{\pi} + \frac{2\times 7\times 525\times 3}{99\times \pi} = (99)^2\frac{dh}{dt}\\\\\frac{1}{(99)^2}\bigg(\frac{-948\times 3}{\pi} + \frac{2\times 7\times 525\times 3}{99\times \pi}\bigg) = \frac{dh}{dt}\\\\\frac{dh}{dt} = -0.085131

Thus, the height of cone is decreasing at a rate of 0.085131 inch per second.
