At Avery Middle School, 273 students responded to a survey asking whether a Bulldog, a Lion, or a Tiger should be the new school

mascot. Four times as many students chose Bulldog as chose Tiger. Twice as many students chose Lion as chose Tiger. How many students chose Lion?

Let the number of students who chose tiger be x.
The number of students who chose bulldog is 4 * x.
The number of students who chose lion is 2 * x.
7x = 273
x = 273/7 = 39
Your answer would be:
2 * x = 78.

hope this helps! :))

Find the vertex of the parabola.<br> F(x) = 5x^2 - 30x +49
Juli2301 [7.4K]

X=-b/2a is the formula for finding the axis of symmetry
So x= -30/2(5)
X=-30/10
X=-3

Because the axis of symmetry is -3, we know where to place our line, and we also know that the parabola is open downwards, which means that the vertex will be maximum. To find the vertex, plug in your values with the axis of symmetry as a midway point. Plug that in for x and so you should have the following:
F(x)
Y(f(x) and y variables are interchangeable) =5(-3)^2-30(-3)+49

Solve for y(f(x))
5(-3)^2-30(-3)+49
(-3)^2=3^2
3^2*5+30*3+49
Multiply
3^2*5+90+49
Add numbers
3^2*5+139
9*5=45
45+139=184
Y=184

So, your vertex would be
(-3,184) and it would be maximum. From there you can plug in the rest of your table of values.

) The manager of a local Gap store estimates that on average the probability of a customer entering the store and will purchase
xeze [42]

Answer: 1. 0.0256

2. 0.4096

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula , to find the probability of getting x successes:

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x} , where n= Total number of trials

p= Probability of getting success in each trial.

Let x be the number of customers will make purchase.

As per given , we have

p= 0.20

n= 4

1. The probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be:-

P(x=3)=^4C_3(0.20)^3(1-0.20)^{4-3}

P(x=3)=(4)(0.20)^3(0.80)^{1}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{n-1}=n]

P(x=3)=(4)(0.008)(0.80)=0.0256

Hence, the probability that 3 of the next 4 customers will make a purchase = 0.0256

2. The probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase will be :

P(x=0)=^4C_0(0.20)^0(1-0.20)^{4-0}

P(x=0)=(1)(0.80)^{4}\ \ [\because\ ^nC_{0}=1]

P(x=0)=0.4096

Hence, the probability that none of the next 4 customers will make a purchase= 0.4096

Type the correct answer in each box. (____)
trapecia [35]

Answer:

1. -16; 2. +64; 3. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is

V = πr²x

Data:

r = (x - 8)   mm

V = 1024π mm³

Calculations:

1. Find the cubic equation  

V = πr²h

1024π = π(x - 8)² × x

Divide each side by π

1024 = x(x - 8)²  

1024 = x(x² - 16x  + 64)

1024 =    x³ - 16x² + 64x

x³ - 16x² + 64x - 1024 = 0

2. Solve the cubic equation

The general formula for a third-degree polynomial is

f(x) = ax³ + bx² + cx + d

Your polynomial is  

f(x) = x³ - 16x² + 64x - 1024

a = 1; d = -1024

According to the <em>rational roots theorem</em>, the possible roots are

factors of d/factors of a

Factors of d = ±1, ±2, ±4, ±8, ±16, ± 32, ± 64, ±128, ±256, ±512, ±1024

Factors of a = ±1

Potential roots are x = ±1, ±2, ±4, ±8, ±16, ± 32, ± 64, ±128, ±256, ±512, ±1024

That's a lot of possibilities to check by trial and error. I will just use the one that works.

Try x = 16 by synthetic division.

16|1  -16   64  -1024

  <u>|     16     0   1024 </u>

   1     0   64        0

So,

(x³ - 16x² + 64x - 1024)/(x – 16) = x² + 64

and

(x - 16)(x² + 64) = 0

x - 16 = 0        x² + 64 =    0

     x = 16       x²         = -64

                       x          =  ±8i

There is only one real root: x = 16 mm
