The answer is 9 for this one
Answer:
C. 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a coin has 2 sides and there is the same probability of getting either side, then each side has a 50% or 0.5 probability. Therefore, in order to calculate the expected value of one coin flip we need to multiply the value of each side by its probability and add those values together like so...
1 * 0.5 = 0.5
0 * 0.5 = 0
Now we add these values together...
0.5 + 0 = 0.5
Finally, we can see that the expected value of one coin flip is 0.5
Answer:
x-intercepts = 1,2, and 4, y-intercept = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 - 7x^2 - 14x - 8 in factored form is equal to (x-1)(x-2)(x-4).
Solving for x-intercepts:
- We are actually able to solve for all x-intercepts without the given factor. But since we are given one of the factors, our job becomes much easier.
- Using synthetic division, or long division, we factor out the x-intercept 4. Which leaves us with the polynomial x^2 - 3x + 2.
- From here we can separate the polynomial into two binomials.
- x^2 - 3x + 2 = (x-1)(x-2). Giving us all 3 x-intercepts.
- Using Descartes' rules we can identify before even starting the problem how many real x-intercepts there are (Not needed for this problem).
Solving for y-intercept:
- The y-intercept is always the coefficient that does not have any assigned x-variables.
- The coefficient is -8, thus the y-intercept.
- If unsure of the y-intercept, you can always plug in x = 0. Solving for the y-intercept will give you the value of f(0).
- If there is no coefficient, the y-intercept is equal to zero.
