Answer:

The answer to your question is: This polynomial does not have root, it does not intercept the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

                                             2x² + 4x + 7

To determine the number of roots of this polinomial, just look at the higher power and that number will be the maximum possible number of roots.

In this exercise, the maximum power is 2, so this polynomial could have at most 2 roots.

b) Find the possible roots of the polynomial, which are multiples of 7

   Possible roots:  ±1, ±7

                                             2x² + 4x + 7

Use synthetic division to find the roots

                                   2     4     7       1

                                          2     6                              

                                   2     6    13                   +1 is not a root

                   

                                   2    4     7        -1

                                        -2    -2                  

                                   2    2    5                    -1 is not a root

                                  2     4     7         7

                                         14   126                  

                                  2     18  133                  +7 is not a root

                                  2     4     7        -7

                                        -14   70                  

                                  2    -10   -77              -7 is not a root

Six​ stand-up comics,​ A, B,​ C, D,​ E, and​ F, are to perform on a single evening at a comedy club. The order of performance is
kiruha [24]

Answer:

a) 1/6

b) 1/36

c) 1/720

d) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Any of the six comics can perform in the fourth place, so there is one chance in six that Comic F is the one that performs fourth.

P(F=4th)=1/6

b) In this case, we have two conditions. Both are independent of each other, so the probability of both happening is the product of the probabilities of each happening individually:

P(D=4th \&B=2nd)=P(D=4th)\cdot P(B=2nd)=(1/6)\cdot(1/6)=1/36

c) This combination is one in all possible orders of perform. The amount of combinations of orders is n!=6!=720 possible combinations. So the probability of this specific order is:

P(F, D, B, A, C, E)=1/720

d) In this case, of the six possible comics performing in the last place, we calculate the probability of 2 of them being in that place. So the probability is:

P(C=6th\,or\, E=6th)=2/6=1/3

Assume you have applied for two jobs a and b. The probability that you get an offer for job a is 0. 25. The probability of being
laila [671]

If you have applied for two jobs a and b and the probability that you get an offer for the job a is 0.25 and the probability of being offered job b is 0.20, then the probability that you will be offered both jobs is 0.05.

Probability is a term used in mathematics that is concerned with the numerical illustration of the possibility of an event to take place. Its value is between 0 and 1 where 0 illustrates the impossibility of the event to take place while 1 illustrates the certainty of an event to take place.

As the probability of both the jobs are not dependent on each other, the probability that both jobs will be offered can be calculated by the formula;

P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B)

Here, P(A∩B) represents the probability of both the events to take place together

As P(A) is equal to 0.25

P(B) is equal to 0.20

P(A∩B) = (0.25)(0.20)

P(A∩B) = 0.05

Therefore, 0.05 is the probability that both jobs will be offered.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: 204 square inches

Step-by-step explanation: I’m not really sure, but if you follow through with the normal area identifying method; Length x Width, you should come up with 25.5. After doing this, you could multiply your product by 8 because your actual mirror size is 8 times greater. You will come up with 204 square inches, which would be your final solution. (Once again, I am not sure, just doing how I’ve been understanding from studies).

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America


"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
