Answer:
15.87% is the chance that Scott takes more than 4.25 minutes to solve a problem at an academic bowl.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Mean, μ = 4 minutes
Standard Deviation, σ = 0.25 minutes
We standardize the given data.
Formula:
P(more than 4.25 minutes to solve a problem)
Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,
Thus,15.87% is the chance that Scott takes more than 4.25 minutes to solve a problem at an academic bowl.
Count change of signs to tell positive roots
then replace x with -x and evaluate, then count change in sign for negative roots
initially
+, -, -, +, +, -
3 changes
3 or 1 positive roots
replacing x with -x
-,-,+,+,-,-
2 changes
2 or 0 negative roots
B is answer
1.0 2.39 3.3 4.-17 5.. 15 6. -24 7. 43 8. 39 9. -11 10.-17
Answer:
It is possible, because the two shortest sides have to add up to be more than the longest side, and 8 + 12 = 20, which is more than the longest side of 17.
So yes, I agree with Bear.
