Answer: 0.00102%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Human body temperatures are normally distributed with a mean of \mu=98^{\circ}Fand a standard deviation of s=0.61^{\circ}F

A hospital uses 100.6^{\circ}F as the lowest temperature considered to be a fever.

Let x be the random variable that represents the human body temperatures.

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{s}

For x= 100.6, z=\dfrac{100.6-98}{0.61}=4.26229508197\approx4.26

Using normal distribution table for z-values for right-tailed area ,

P(x>100.6)=P(Z>4.26)=0.0000102=0.00102\%

Hence, the required probability = 0.00102%

Factor completely 5ax2 − 20x3 2a − 8x. (a 4x)(5x2 2) (a 4x)(5x2 − 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 2) (a − 4x)(5x2 − 2).
antiseptic1488 [7]

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.

Factor completely 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x.

Take 5x² common from the first two terms and 2 from the last two terms. we have

5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x

5x²(a − 4x) + 2 (a − 4x)

Take (a - 4) common, then we have

(5x² + 2) (y − 4x)

The complete factor of the polynomial 5ax² − 20x³ + 2a − 8x is (5x² + 2) (y − 4x). Then the correct option is C.

Select the correct answer. Consider the following system of equations. Use this graph of the system to approximate its solution.
vesna_86 [32]

The approximate solution to the given system of equations, considering the graph, is given as follows:

D. \left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right).

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

On a graph, the solution of a system of equations is given by the intersection between the curves. In this graph, the intersection of the two curves happen close to x = -3.25, y = 2.5, hence the solution is approximated by:

D. \left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)
