Answer:

1 in 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = success / (success + failure)

Odds = success / failure

The probability is 8%, which means in a group of 100 people, 8 will catch the flu and 92 will not.  So the odds are 8/92, which reduces to 1/11.5, or approximately 1/12.

You go to the store and pick out 3 apples for $0.60 each, 2 bananas for $0.50 each, and 1 quart of yogurt for $4.50. At checkout
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$6.21

Step-by-step explanation:

1 apple = $0.60

3 apples = $1.80 (Multiply 0.60 by 3)

2 bananas = $1.00 (Multiply 0.50 by 2)

1 quart of yoghurt = $4.50

Add the prices up first:

1.80 + 1.00 + 4.50 = $7.30

7.30 off 15% = $6.21

When the polynomial in P(x) is divided by (x + a), the remainder equals P(a).
Effectus [21]

According to Remainder Theorem for the polynomials, for every polynomial P(x) there exist such polynomials G(x) and R(x), that P(x)=(x\pm a)G(x)+R(x).


When the polynomial in P(x) is divided by (x + a), then there exist such polynomials G(x) and R(x), that P(x)=(x+a)G(x)+R(x). Note that for x=-a:


P(-a)=(-a+a)G(-a)+R(-a)=0·G(a)+R(-a)=R(-a).
This means that P(-a) is the remainder, not P(a). <span>
