Answers

1) 4

2) 0, 2, -10

3) 0, 5, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x³ - 64 = 0

x³ = 64

x = 4

2) x³(x² + 8x - 20) = 0

x³(x² + 10x - 2x - 20) = 0

x³(x(x + 10) - 2(x + 10)) = 0

x³(x + 10)(x - 2) = 0

x = 0, 2, -10

3) x³ - 3x² - 10x = 0

x(x² - 3x - 10) = 0

x(x² - 5x + 2x - 10) = 0

x(x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5)) = 0

x(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0

x = 0, 5, -2

Suppose that p is the probability that a randomly selected person is left handed. The value (1-p) is the probability that the pe
solmaris [256]

Answer:

a) 1/2

b) 250

Step-by-step explanation:

The start of the question doesn't matter entirely, although is interesting to read. What we are trying to do is find the value for p such that 1000p(1-p) is maximized. Once we have that p, we can easily find the answer to part b.

Finding the value that maximizes 1000p(1-p) is the same as finding the value that maximizes p(1-p), just on a smaller scale. So, we really want to maximize p(1-p). To do this, we will do a trick called completing the square.

p(1-p)=p-p^2=-p^2+p=-(p^2-p)=-(p^2-p+1/4)-(-1/4)=-(p-1/2)^2+1/4.

Because there is a negative sign in front of the big squared term, combined with the fact that a square is always positive, means we need to find the value of p such that the inner part of the square term is equal to 0.

p-1/2=0\\p=1/2.

So, the answer to part a is \boxed{1/2}.

We can then plug 1/2 into the equation for p to find the answer to part b.

1000(1/2)(1-1/2)=1000(1/2)(1/2)=1000*1/4=250.

So, the answer to part b is \boxed{250}.

And we're done!
