What are the zeros of the function y = x2 + 10x – 171, and why?

1 answer:

5 0

To find the zeros, you have to factor the equation.
y=(x+19)(x-9)
This is because 19*-9=-171 and 19-9=10.
Now to make x=0, you have to make the equation
x+19=0
and x-9=0
To solve, isolate x on both equations.
This makes x=-19 and x=9.

On average, there are 10 customers arrives a local bank per hour. Bob is the only bank teller on duty at the bank currently and

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

the probability that no customer will arrive in the next 6 minutes = 0.36788 = 0.368

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 10 customers per hour, this translates to 1 customer per 6 minutes

So, if there's a mean of 1 customer per 6 minutes, to obtain the probability that no customer will come in a 6 minute interval, this becomes a Poisson distribution problem.

The Poisson distribution formula is given by

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x!

where λ = mean = 1 customer per 6 minutes

x = 0 customer per 6 minutes

P(X=0) = (e⁻¹)(1⁰)/0! = 0.36788 = 0.368

Select the answer choice below that represents 5.9 x 10-4 in standard notation.

PIT_PIT [208]

This means that you have to move the decimal point 4 decimal places to the left, as denoted by the negative sign. Thus, this would add 3 zeros before 5. The answer would be 0.00059.

I hope the explanation was clear to you. Have a good day.

Answer:

560 ants and non linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

12 months divided by 3 months is 4. 35 times 2 is 70. Again is 140. Again is 280. Again a 4th time is 560 ants. It is not linear because it does not increase the same amount each time.
