2) Multiply<br> (6x+3)(3x2+8x+5)<br> Help, please shore me how to do this!

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Result :

3 • (2x + 1) • (x + 1) • (3x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".

STEP1

Equation at the end of step 1

(6x + 3) • ((3x2 + 8x) + 5)

STEP2

STEP3

Pulling out like terms

3.1 Pull out like factors :

6x + 3 = 3 • (2x + 1)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

3.2 Factoring 3x2 + 8x + 5

The first term is, 3x2 its coefficient is 3 .

The middle term is, +8x its coefficient is 8 .

The last term, "the constant", is +5

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 3 • 5 = 15

Step-2 : Find two factors of 15 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 8 .

-15 + -1 = -16

-5 + -3 = -8

-3 + -5 = -8

-1 + -15 = -16

1 + 15 = 16

3 + 5 = 8 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, 3 and 5

3x2 + 3x + 5x + 5

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

3x • (x+1)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

5 • (x+1)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(3x+5) • (x+1)

Which is the desired factorization

sorry if its too much...

7.109) The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share. A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they choose the leading brand, or they do not. The probability of a customer choosing the leading brand is independent of any other customer, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The leading brand of dishwasher detergent has a 30% market share.

This means that $p = 0.3$

A sample of 25 dishwasher detergent customers was taken.

This means that $n = 25$

a. What is the probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand?

This is:

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{25,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{25} = 0.0001$

$P(X = 1) = C_{25,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{24} = 0.0014$

$P(X = 2) = C_{25,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{23} = 0.0074$

$P(X = 3) = C_{25,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{22} = 0.0243$

$P(X = 4) = C_{25,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{21} = 0.0572$

$P(X = 5) = C_{25,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{20} = 0.1030$

$P(X = 6) = C_{25,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{19} = 0.1472$

$P(X = 7) = C_{25,7}.(0.3)^{7}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.1712$

$P(X = 8) = C_{25,8}.(0.3)^{8}.(0.7)^{17} = 0.1651$

$P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.3)^{9}.(0.7)^{16} = 0.1336$

$P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.3)^{10}.(0.7)^{15} = 0.0916$

Then

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0001 + 0.0014 + 0.0074 + 0.0243 + 0.0572 + 0.1030 + 0.1472 + 0.1712 + 0.1651 + 0.1336 + 0.0916 = 0.9021$

0.9021 = 90.21% probability that 10 or fewer customers choose the leading brand

Solve the equation: 13W - 2(4W + 1) = W - 58 *

Sergio [31]

Answer:

W = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

13W - 2(4W + 1) = W - 58

13W - 8W - 2 = W - 58

13W - 8W - W = 2 - 58

4W = - 56

W = - 56 : 4

W = - 14
