Suppose you want to organize a community watch, one from each street. you have 5 volunteers from maple street and 3 volunteers f

rom elm street. how many permutations do you get?

There would be 15 different options for the community watch.

One one side there are 5 volunteers and on the other side there are 3 volunteers. You just have to multiply 5 by 3 and you get 15 different options.

3. Which polynomial is equal to

Nataly_w [17]

Which polynomial is equal to (-3x^2 + 2x - 3) subtracted from (x^3 - x^2 + 3x)?

<h3><u><em>Answer:</em></u></h3>

The polynomial equal to (-3x^2 + 2x - 3) subtracted from (x^3 - x^2 + 3x) is $x^3 + 2x^2 + x + 3$

<h3><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h3>

Given that two polynomials are: $(-3x^2 + 2x - 3)$ and $(x^3 - x^2 + 3x)$

We have to find the result when $(-3x^2 + 2x - 3)$ is subtracted from $(x^3 - x^2 + 3x)$

In basic arithmetic operations,

when "a" is subtracted from "b" , the result is b - a

Similarly,

When $(-3x^2 + 2x - 3)$ is subtracted from $(x^3 - x^2 + 3x)$ , the result is:

$\rightarrow (x^3 - x^2 + 3x) - (-3x^2 + 2x - 3)$

Let us solve the above expression

<em><u>There are two simple rules to remember: </u></em>

When you multiply a negative number by a positive number then the product is always negative.

When you multiply two negative numbers or two positive numbers then the product is always positive.

So the above expression becomes:

$\rightarrow (x^3 - x^2 + 3x) + 3x^2 -2x + 3$

Removing the brackets we get,

$\rightarrow x^3 - x^2 + 3x + 3x^2 -2x + 3$

Combining the like terms,

$\rightarrow x^3 -x^2 + 3x^2 + 3x - 2x + 3$

$\rightarrow x^3 + 2x^2 + x + 3$

Thus the resulting polynomial is found

According to a study done by a university student, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mou

VikaD [51]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

$P(X = 8) = 0.0037$

b

$P(X < 5) = 0.805$

c

$P(X > 6) = 0.0206$

I would be surprised because the value is very small , less the 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is $p = 0.267$

Generally data collected from this study follows binomial distribution because the number of trials is finite , there are only two outcomes, (covering , and not covering mouth when sneezing ) , the trial are independent

Hence for a randomly selected variable X we have that

$X \ \ \~ \ \ { B ( p , n )}$

The probability distribution function for binomial distribution is

$P(X = x ) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 -p) ^{n-x}$

Considering question a

Generally the the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals exactly 8 do not cover their mouth when sneezing is mathematically represented as

$P(X = 8) = ^{12} C_8 * (0.267)^8 * (1- 0.267)^{12-8}$

Here C denotes combination

So

$P(X = 8) = 495 * 0.000025828 * 0.28867947$

$P(X = 8) = 0.0037$

Considering question b

Generally the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals fewer than 5 do not cover their mouth when sneezing is mathematically represented as

$P(X < 5 ) =[P(X = 0 ) + \cdots + P(X = 4)]$

=> $P(X < 5 ) =[ ^{12} C_0 * (0.267)^0 * (1- 0.267)^{12-0} + \cdots + ^{12} C_4 * (0.267)^4 * (1- 0.267)^{12-4} ]$

=> $P(X < 5 ) = 0.02406 + 0.10516 + 0.21067 + 0.25580 + 0.20964$

=> $P(X < 5) = 0.805$

Considering question c

Generally the probability that fewer than half(6) covered their mouth when sneezing(i.e the probability the greater than half do not cover their mouth when sneezing) is mathematically represented as

$P(X > 6) = 1 - p(X \le 6)$

=> $P(X > 6) = 1 - [P(X = 0) + \cdots + P(X =6)]$

=> $P(X > 6)=1 - [^{12} C_0 * (0.267)^0 * (1- 0.267)^{12-0}+ \cdots + ^{12} C_4 * (0.267)^6 * (1- 0.267)^{12-6} ]$

=> $P(X > 6)= 1 - [0.02406 + \cdots + 0.0519 ]$

=> $P(X > 6) = 0.0206$

I would be surprised because the value is very small , less the 0.05

Identify the range of the function shown in the graph.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

A

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a graph

To find the range of graph

The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis.

We can see in the graph that for negative values of x it have positive values, zero and negative values of y.

The graph extends vertically from (-∞,∞), along the y axis. So the range of the function shown in the graph is (-∞,∞).

Hence, it is concluded that range is All real numbers
