Explain how an estimate helps you place the decimal point when multiplying 3.9 × 5.3

An estimate helps you place the decimal point when multiplying because if you find out how many decimals there are and once you are done doing you estimated multiplication you put two decimal points after that.

Hope I helped some what and didn't make you confused.

We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:

fredd [130]

Answer:

x = -3 and x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

After writing down the polynomial, split it; put a line between 3x^2 and -18x. Look and 2x^3 + 3x^2 and -18x - 27 separately and factor them both:

p(x) = 2x^3 + 3x^2 <u>- 18x -27</u>

p(x) = x^2(2x+3) <u>-9(2x+3)</u>

Now notice how x^2 and -9 have the same factor (2x+3). That means x^2 and -9 can go together:

p(x) = (x^2 - 9)(2x+3)

Factor it once more because there's a difference of squares:

p(x) = (x+3)(x-3)(2x+3)

Now just plug in whatever makes the each bracket equal 0:

x = -3, x = 3, and x = -3/2

Those are your zeros.

The cycle time for trucks hauling concrete to a highway construction site is uniformly distributed over the interval 40 to 75 mi

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

$P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}$

Uniformly distributed over the interval 40 to 75 minutes.

This means that $a = 40, b = 75$

It is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

This means that we can use $a = 45$

What is the probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes?

$P(X > 50) = \frac{75 - 50}{75 - 45} = 0.8333$

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes
