An error has been made in subtracting the two polynomials shown in the work below the problem is (6x^2-4x-5)-(3x^2-7x=2)

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's work out the subtraction of the polynomial to find out where the error is and the correct result we should have.

6x² - 4x - 5

- 3x² - 7x + 2

= [6x² - 3x²] [-4x -(-7x)] [-5 -(+2)]

= 3x² + 3x - 7

The error that was made in the subtraction given in the question was that the negative signs before the terms, 7x and 5 were ignored while subtracting.

The sign is very important, it defines the value of the term.

We can choose to solve the problem in another way shown below:

(6x² - 4x - 5) - (3x² - 7x + 2)

Distributive the negative sign in the second polynomial

6x² - 4x - 5 - 3x² + 7x - 2

Combine like terms

6x² - 3x² - 4x + 7x - 5 - 2

3x² + 3x - 7

just olya [345]

Answer:

The term "El Nino" refers to the warming of the central and eastern tropical Pacific waters that occurs every 3 to 7 years and typically lasts from 9 to 12 months. The 1997-1998 El Nino, the strongest ever recorded, affected climate patterns worldwide. Its effect, combined with an increasing trend in annual global temperatures, made 1998 the warmest year in the 20th century. Suppose you are a climatologist. You conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the global mean temperature in the current year is different from the global mean temperature in 1998. Assume that the global mean temperature in 1998 is 14.3 degrees Celsius. You obtain a preliminary sample of temperatures from recording stations worldwide, which yields a sample mean of x bar = 15.1 degrees Celsius. Let mu denote the global mean temperature in the current year. Formulate your null and alternative hypotheses by selecting the appropriate values in the blue drop-down menus that follow.

lions [1.4K]
Where is the table,but this is what i did without the table .
 first added all the numbers up and got 260
then i put each color and the total in fraction form
then i simplified:
yellow would be: 50/260=5/26
red would be: 45/260=9/52
blue would be: 65/260=13/52
orange would be: 40/260=4/26
green would be: 60/260=6/26
