Answer:

d. 14:11

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a 7 in 10 chance that Mike does his homework today and a 8 in 10 chance he will do it tomorrow,  the probability that he will do it both today and tomorrow is:

P = \frac{7}{10}* \frac{8}{10}\\P=\frac{56}{100}=0.56

The odds are the probability that an event occurs over the probability that it does not occur:

Odds = \frac{0.56}{1-0.56}=\frac{56}{44}=\frac{14}{11}

The odds that he will do it both today and tomorrow are 14:11.

You need to create a fenced off region of land for cattle to graze. The grazing area must be a total of 500 square feet, surroun
KATRIN_1 [288]
<h3>Given</h3>

A regular polygon with area 500 ft² and apothem 10 ft

Cost of fence is $7.95 per ft

<h3>Find</h3>

Part III The cost of fence around an area scaled to 60 times the size

<h3>Solution</h3>

You don't want to think too much about this, because if you do, you find the regular polygon has 3.087 sides. The closest approximation, an equilateral triangle, will have an area of 519.6 ft² for an apothem of 10 ft.

For similar shapes of scale factor "s", the larger shape will have an area of s² times that of the smaller one. Here, it appears the area scale factor s² is 60, so the linear scale factor is

... s² = 60

... s = √60 ≈ 7.7460

The perimeter fence of the 500 ft² area is presumed to be 100 ft long (twice the area of the polygon divided by the apothem—found in Part I), so the perimeter fence of the industrial farm is ...

... (100 ft)×7.7460 = 774.60 ft

and the cost to construct it is

... ($7.95/ft)×(774.60 ft) ≈ $6158

The degree of the polynomial function f(x) is 3. The roots of the equation f(x)=0 are −4 , 0, and 2. Which graph could be the gr
KATRIN_1 [288]

We know that the polynomial function is of degree 3, and that its roots are -4, 0, 2.

With this data we can write a generic equation for the function:

f (x) = bx (x + 4) (x-2)

Since the function is of degree 3 and cuts the axis at x = 0, then it has rotational symmetry with respect to the origin.

The graph of the function can be of two main forms, based on the value of the coefficient b.

If b is positive then the function grows from y = -infinite and cuts the x-axis for the first time in -4. Then it decreases, cuts at x = 0 and begins to grow again cutting the x-axis for the third time at x = 2. and continues to grow until y = infnit


If b is negative, then the function decreases from y = infinity and cuts the x-axis for the first time in -4. Then it grows, cuts at x = 0 and begins to decrease again by cutting the x-axis for the third time at x = 2, and continues to decrease until y = -infnit.


In the attached images the graphs of the function f (x) are shown assuming b = -1 and b = 1
