Which of the following represents the zeros of f(x) = 2x3 − 5x2 − 28x + 15?

likoan [24]

$\mathrm{Use\:the\:rational\:root\:theorem}$

$a_0=15,\:\quad a_n=2$

$\mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_0:\quad 1,\:3,\:5,\:15,\:\quad \mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_n:\quad 1,\:2$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:3,\:5,\:15}{1,\:2}$

$-\frac{3}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+3$

$-\frac{3}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+3$

$\mathrm{Compute\:}\frac{2x^3-5x^2-28x+15}{x+3}\mathrm{\:to\:get\:the\:rest\:of\:the\:eqution:\quad }2x^2-11x+5$

$=\left(x+3\right)\left(2x^2-11x+5\right)$

$Factor: 2x^2-11x+5$

$2x^2-11x+5=\left(2x^2-x\right)+\left(-10x+5\right)$

$=x\left(2x-1\right)-5\left(2x-1\right)$

$2x^3-5x^2-28x+15=\left(x+3\right)\left(x-5\right)\left(2x-1\right)$

$\left(x+3\right)\left(x-5\right)\left(2x-1\right)=0$

$\mathrm{Using\:the\:Zero\:Factor\:Principle:}$

thus zeros of f(x) is

$x=-3,\:x=5,\:x=\frac{1}{2}$

Adult men have heights with a mean of 69. 0 inches and a standard deviation of 2. 8 inches. find the z-score of a man who is 71.

Anarel [89]

The value of the z score is 1.03.

According to the statement

we have given that the value of mean and standard deviation and we have to find the value of the z score.

So, For this purpose we know that the

Z-score indicates how much a given value differs from the standard deviation. The Z-score, or standard score, is the number of standard deviations a given data point lies above or below mean.

And the given values are:

mean value = 69 inches

s.d value = 2.8 inches

And the value of x is 71.9 inches.

So, The Z score is

z = x - mean / standard deviation

substitute the values in it then

z = 71.9 - 69 / 2.8

then

z = 2.9 /2.8

z = 1.03

So, The value of the z score is 1.03.
