Answer:
Between 38.42 and 49.1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean of 43.76, standard deviation of 2.67.
Between what two values will approximately 95% of the amounts be?
By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So
43.76 - 2*2.67 = 38.42
43.76 + 2*2.67 = 49.1
Between 38.42 and 49.1.
Thet contradict each other, that's why both of them are incorrect.
<span>Suppose that a polynomial has four roots: s, t, u, and v. If the polynomial were evaluated at any of these values, it would have to be zero. Therefore, the polynomial can be written in this form.
p(x)(x - s)(x - t)(x - u)(x - v), where p(x) is some non-zero polynomial
This polynomial has a degree of at least 4. It therefore cannot be cubic.
Now prove Kelsey correct. We have already proved that there can be no more than three roots. To prove that a cubic polynomial with three roots is possible, all we have to do is offer a single example of that. This one will do.
(x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)
This is a cubic polynomial with three roots, and four or more roots are not possible for a cubic polynomial. Kelsey is correct.
Incidentally, if this is a roller coaster we are discussing, then a cubic polynomial is not such a good idea, either for a vertical curve or a horizontal curve. I hope this helps</span><span>
