Answer:

To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.


Step-by-step explanation:


A polynomials is an equation with many terms whose leading term is the highest exponent known as degree. The degree or exponent tells how many roots exist. These roots are the x-intercepts.


This polynomial has roots -4, -1, and 5. This means the graph must touch or cross through the x-axis at these x-values. What determines if it crosses the x-axis or the simple touch it and bounce back? The even or odd multiplicity - how many times the root occurs.


In this polynomial:


Root -4 has even multiplicity of 4 so it only touches and does not cross through.


Root -1 has odd multiplicity of 3 so crosses through.


Root 5 has even multiplicity of 6 so it only touches and does not cross through.


Lastly, what determines the facing of the graph (up or down) is the leading coefficient. If positive, the graph ends point up. If negative, the graph ends point down. All even degree graphs will have this shape.


To draw this graph, we start from the left in quadrant 3 drawing the curve to -4 on the x-axis to touch it but not cross. We continue back down and curve back around to cross the x-axis at -1. We continue up past -1 and curve back down to 5 on the x-axis. We touch here without crossing and draw the rest of our function heading back up. It should form a sideways s shape.

3 A piece of ibbon of lengh 84 cm is divided
xxMikexx [17]

Add the 3 ratio portions together: 1 + 4 + 7 = 12

Divide total length by 12:

84/12 = 7

Multiply each ratio portion by 7:

1 x 7 = 7

4 x 7 = 28

7 x 7 = 49

The longest piece is 49 cm

A film distribution manager calculates that 4% of the films released are flops. If the manager is correct, what is the probabili
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

9.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 4%, or 0.04

n = Sample size = 667

u = Expected value = n * p = 667 * 0.04 = 26.68

SD = Standard deviation = \sqrt{np(1-p)}  =\sqrt{667*0.04*(1-0.04)} = 5.06

Now, the question is if the manager is correct, what is the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 667 released films would be greater than 5%?

This statement implies that the p-vlaue of Z when X = 5% * 667 = 33.35

Since,

Z = (X - u) / SD

We have;

Z = (33.35 - 26.68) / 5.06

Z = 1.32

From the Z-table, the p-value of 1.32 is 0.9066

1 - 0.9066 = 0.0934, or 9.34%

Therefore, the probability that the proportion of flops in a sample of 667 released films would be greater than 5% is 9.34%.

Let P=x^2+6<br> PLEASE SHOW WORK!!<br> 15 POINTS
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = x^2 + 6

(x^2+6)^2 - 21 = 4x^2 + 24\\(x^2+6)^2 - 4x^2 - 45 = 0

Solving for 4x^2:

P = x^2 +6

P - 6 = x^2

4(P - 6) = 4x^2

Substitution:

p^2 - 4p - 24 - 45 = 0\\p^2 -4p - 69 = 0

Answer:

The odd function is written f (x) = (x) and rounds the odd numbers to the nearest integer.

The graph of f (x) = (x) includes the point (17/4), (7/2), (15/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The odd function seeks to round odd numbers, with fractions of first odd numbers and then even by adding 3 to them.
