We have by the intermediate value theorem that if a continuous function takes values both above and below zero at 2 points, there is a zero of the function in-between. We have that polynomials are continues. Let's calculate f(-6) and f(-5). f(-6)=-36 while f(-5)=-1. Thus, we cannot conclude that there is a root between them.
F(-2)=8, f(-1)=-1, so there is a flip; a zero must exist between them.
F(1)=-1, f(2)=20, so again there is a change of signs.
f(-5)=-1, f(-4)=14 so there is a root still.
We have that the only choice that does not have a root between the integers is choice a.

Lisa wrote the expression (3x + 6x) - 2(x + 1) + 5. She simplified the expression using the following steps:
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Step 1. Should be 3(x +2x) -2(x +1) +5 . . .

or . . . 3x(1 +2) -2(x +1) +5 . . .

or . . . 9x -2(x+1) +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa apparently failed to realize that both terms inside the first set of parentheses have 3x as a factor. They are like terms, so could be combined directly. If Lisa really wants to factor out 3 or 3x, she could do so and then combine the remaining factors at another step.

PLEASE HELP ME
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Mean: $620, Mode: $600

Let's sort the rank stats.

First quartile: $580

Median: $610

Third quartile: $645

85th percentile: $685

OK, we're ready.  What happened to a and b?

c. $645 is the third quartile, 75th percentile.  That means 25% of the salaries are higher.

Answer: 25%

d.  $685 is the 85th percentile, 15% greater.

Answer: 15%

e.  The mean is the sum of all the salaries divided by the count.  

Mean = Sum / Count

So the sum is the count times the mean,

Sum = Count × Mean  = 100 × $620 = $62,000

Big payroll.

Answer: $62,000
