According to a survey of adults, 64 percent have money in a bank savings account. If we were to survey 50 randomly selected adul

Answer:
The mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts is 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each adult surveyed, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have bank savings accounts, or they do not. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
In this problem, we have that:
If we were to survey 50 randomly selected adults, find the mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts.
This is E(X) when .
So
The mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts is 32.

If the roots of the equation f(x)=0 are -4,-1, 2 and 5, then binomials (x+4), (x+1), (x-2) and (x-5) are factors of needed polynomial.
Thus, the polynomial will have form
where a is real coefficient (positive or negative). This polynomial has degree 4 as needed.
The form of the graph depends on the sign of coefficient a. Attached diagrams show two different cases of possible forms of graphs (first one for positive coefficient a, second one for negative coefficient a).
