An automobile insurance company divides customers into three categories: good risks, medium risks, and poor risks. Assume that o

Leokris [45]

Answer:

0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that the customer is not a poor risk = 1 - probability that the customer is a poor risk

Firstly, let’s calculate the probability of being a poor risk.

From the given data the number of poor risks = 14229-7362-1190 = 5677

So the probability of being a poor risk = 5677/14229 = 0.399

Thus, the probability that the customer is not a poor risk = 1-0.399 = 0.601 which to 2 decimal places = 0.60

Alja [10]

If a binomial $(x-a)$ is a factor of a polynomial, then $a$ is a root of this polynomial.

$(x+2)=(x-(-2)) \Rightarrow a=-2\\\\
(-2)^3-6\cdot(-2)^2+k\cdot(-2)+10=0\\
-8-24-2k+10=0\\
-2k=22\\\
\boxed{k=-11}
