Answer:

The correct option is A) $3x^3+3x^2-30x-48$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

$3\left(x+2\right)\left(x^2-x-8\right)$

Distribute 3 as shown

$\left(3x+6\right)\left(x^2-x-8\right)$

Distribute parentheses as shown.

$3xx^2+3x\left(-x\right)+3x\left(-8\right)+6x^2+6\left(-x\right)+6\left(-8\right)$

$3x^2x-3xx-3\cdot \:8x+6x^2-6x-6\cdot \:8$

$3x^3-3x^2-24x+6x^2-6x-48$

Add and subtract like terms

$3x^3+3x^2-30x-48$

Hence, the correct option is A) $3x^3+3x^2-30x-48$

Answer:

3x^3 + 3x^2 − 30x − 48

Step-by-step explanation:

3( x + 2 )( x^2 − x − 8 )

= ( 3( x + 2 ))( x^2 + − x + − 8 )

= ( 3( x + 2 ))( x^2 ) + ( 3( x + 2 ))( −x ) + ( 3( x + 2 ))( −8 )

= 3x^3 + 6x^2 − 3x^2 − 6x − 24x − 48

3x^3 + 3x^2 − 30x − 48

Suppose a certain study reported that 27.7% of high school students smoke.

Norma-Jean [14]

<u>Given</u>:

Probability of student smoke,

P = 27.7%

= 0.277

Number of students,

n = 632

$q = 1-p$

$=1-0.277$

$=0.723$

(i)

Here,

Number of students (n) = 60

then,

⇒ $n_P=60\times 0.277$

$=16.62$

⇒ $n_q=60\times 0.723$

$=43.38$

We can see that $n_P > 10$ and $n_q>10$ so the normal approximation condition are met.

Now,

$\mu = n_P= 16.62$

$\sigma = \sqrt{n_{Pq}}$

$= \sqrt{60\times 0.277\times 0.723}$

$=3.9664$

Now,

⇒ $P(X$

$=P(Z_{18.5})$

The Z-score is:

= $\frac{18.5-16.62}{3.4664}$

= $0.5423$

hence,

The probability will be:

⇒ $P(Z_{18.5}) = 0.7062$

or,

⇒ $P(Z$

(ii)

Here,

Number of students (n) = 75

$\mu = n_P = 75\times 0.277$

$=20.775$

$\sigma = \sqrt{n_{Pq}}$

$=\sqrt{75\times 0.277\times 0.723}$

$=3.8756$

Now,

⇒ $P(X>17) = P(X> 17.5)$

$=1-P(X \leq 17.5)$

$=1-P(Z_{17.5})$

The Z-score is:

= $\frac{17.5-20.775}{3.8756}$

= $-0.9740$

then, $P(Z_{17.5}) = 0.165$

hence,

The probability will be:

⇒ $P(X>17) = 1-0.165$

$=0.835$

5. Find the product of p(x) and q(x) if p(x) = 2x+7 and q(x) = 4x-9

stepan [7]

Answer:

p(x), q(x), and their product are all polynomials.

p(x) · q(x) = 6x² + 10x - 63

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all P(x) and q(x) are polynomials because polynomials refer to any sum, difference, or product of a collection of algebraic terms. The word polynomials is general. P(x) and q(x) are polynomials but more specifically they are binomials since they only have two terms. Their product is a polynomial as well, but more specifically its a trinomial because it has three terms.

<em>process of multiplying</em>

Using the distributive property (or foil method) when multiplying p(x) and q(x) you would first get the expression 6x² - 18x + 28x - 63. From here you would combine "like terms". This would give you your final answer of

6x² + 10x - 63. Sorry, I couldn't help you with the D question but I hope this helps ;)
