Step-by-step explanation:

Han is multiplying10x^4 by 0.5^3 and gets 5x^7 is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. What is the error in han’s thinking explain

On multiplying 10x⁴ by 0.5x³,

10x^4\times 0.5x^3=(10\times 0.5)x^{4+3}\\\\=5x^7

A polynomial is a combination of coefficients and variables. It is made up of one or more monomial. Han says that it is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. The statement is false. After multiplication we get 5x⁷. It has a variable x and constant 5. Hence, its is a polynomial.

Which equation, when graphed, has x-intercepts at (2, 0) and (4, 0) and a y-intercept of (0, â€"16)? f(x) = â€"(x â€" 2)(x â€" 4
zmey [24]

To find the equation, for the x-intercepts at (2, 0) and (4, 0) and a y-intercept of (0, –16) we have to find the nature of the curve.

The correct option is f(x) = –2(x – 2)(x – 4).

Given:

The x-intercepts at (2, 0) and (4, 0).

The y-intercept of (0, –16).

The nature of the graph is quadratic curve. Write the general equation for x-intercept.

y=a(x-2)(x-4)

Where is a number

Substitute 0 for x.

y=a(0-2)(-4)\\y=8a

We have y-intercept of (0, –16).

-16=8a\\a=-2

The equation would be,

f(x) = -2(x - 2)(x - 4).

Thus, the correct option is f(x) = –2(x – 2)(x – 4).

A modified roulette wheel has 32 slots. One slot is​ 0, another is​ 00, and the others are numbered 1 through 30​, respectively.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(a)\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) 17:15

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The roulette wheel has 32 slots (inclusive of 0 and 00)

Number of Odd Numbers between 1 to 30 =15

Since you are placing a bet that the outcome is an odd number.

P(\text{Winning})=\dfrac{\text{Number of Odd Numbers}}{\text{Total Number of Slots}} \\=\dfrac{15}{32}

(b) The actual odds against​ winning

\text{Actual Odds against Winning})=\dfrac{32-15}{15}\\=\dfrac{17}{15}

Therefore, the actual odds against​ winning are 17:15
