If one number is x the other is 15-x so their product is 15x-x².
This can be written -(x²-15x+225/4)+225/4=(15/2)²-(x-15/2)².
The largest value of this expression is when x=15/2=7.5 so the other number is also 7.5.
Let’s pick two other numbers and check their product: 7 and 8, product=56 but the product of 7.5 and 7.5=56.25 which is larger, therefore the two numbers are 7.5 and 7.5.

Express the sum of 3x³ - 7x² +2 and -x³ +9x² - 5<br> as a trinomial
saw5 [17]

2x³ + 2x² - 3 is the cubic trinomial that is expressed as the sum of 3x³ - 7x² +2 and -x³ +9x² - 5.

Given: To express the sum 3x³ - 7x² +2 and -x³ +9x² - 5 of as a trinomial.

What are algebraic equations?

Algebraic equations are a sequence or combination of characters containing variables, alphabets, numbers, symbols, etc. which are equated to some value.

What are polynomials?

Polynomials are algebraic expressions that consist of variables, coefficients, and operators. A polynomial is usually depicted as the sum of m terms for some unknown variable x, raised to the power of n with some constants.

For example: Let us consider p(x) to be a polynomial of degree n. The p(x) can be represented as

p(x) = Cₙ xⁿ + Cₙ₋₁xⁿ⁻¹ . . . . . . . + m terms . . . . . + K (where K is some constant and C's are coefficients of x)

What are trinomials?

Trinomials are algebraic expressions that consist of three non-zero terms or monomials.

For example: f(x) = x + y + z is a linear trinomial of 3 variables x, y, and z.

f(x) = x² + 4x + 1 is a quadratic trinomial of 1 variable x and so on.

Let's solve the problem:

Consider f(x) = 3x³ - 7x² +2 and g(x) = -x³ +9x² - 5

We have to express it as a sum of trinomials.

We can see both f(x) and g(x) are Cubic trinomials of one variable x and the lower degrees of x are the same.

So f(x) + g(x) will also given a cubic trinomial of one variable x

f(x) + g(x) = (3x³ - 7x² +2) + (-x³ +9x² - 5)

Grouping similar terms

f(x) + g(x) = (3x³ - x³) + (-7x² + 9x²) + (2 - 5)

f(x) + g(x) = 2x³ + 2x² - 3

Therefore, the required trinomial is 2x³ + 2x² - 3.

Hence 2x³ + 2x² - 3 is the cubic trinomial that is expressed as the sum of 3x³ - 7x² +2 and -x³ +9x² - 5.

The relationship between the number of games won by a minor league baseball team and the average attendance at their home games
natulia [17]

Answer: There is a strong positive correlation between  number of games won by a minor league baseball team and the average attendance at their home games is analyzed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pearson's coefficient 'r' gives the correlation between the predicted values and the observed values .

  • It tells the direction and the strength of the relation.
  • When r is negative it means there is a negative relationship between the variables .
  • When r is positive it means there is a positive relationship between the variables .
  • When |r|=1 , strong correlation ,
  • When r=0 , there is no correlation.
  • If 0.70<|r|<1 , there is a strong correlation.
  • If 0.50<|r|<0.70 , there is a moderate correlation.
  • If 0.30<|r|<0.50 , there is a low correlation.

Given :  A regression to predict the average attendance from the number of games won has an r = 0.73.

Since r=0.73 is positive and 0.70 <0.73 <1 , it means there is a strong positive correlation between number of games won by a minor league baseball team and the average attendance at their home games is analyzed.
