Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the (X) in this means times then
1/15
Answer:
x^4 -53x^2 +108x +160
Step-by-step explanation:
If <em>a</em> is a zero, then (<em>x-a</em>) is a factor. For the given zeros, the factors are ...
p(x) = (x +8)(x +1)(x -4)(x -5)
Multiplying these out gives the polynomial in standard form.
= (x^2 +9x +8)(x^2 -9x +20)
We note that these factors have a sum and difference with the same pair of values, x^2 and 9x. We can use the special form for the product of these to simplify our working out.
= (x^2 +9x)(x^2 -9x) +20(x^2 +9x) +8(x^2 -9x) +8(20)
= x^4 -81x^2 +20x^2 +180x +8x^2 -72x +160
p(x) = x^4 -53x^2 +108x +160
_____
The graph shows this polynomial has the required zeros.
Answer:
$104,710.29
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount is given by ...
A = Pe^(rt)
where P is the principal invested at annual rate r for t years. Filling in the numbers, we get ...
A = 30000e^(.05·25) = 30000e^1.25 ≈ 104,710.29
The balance will be about $104,710.29 on the child's 25th birthday.
1). $2,700 is (2,700/6,000) = 45% of 6,000.
It took 6 years to earn it, so it earned (45%/6) = 7.5% each year.
That's the simple-interest rate.

2). The investment earns 4.5% each year, so it earned 9% in 2 years.
The $1,150.65 is the 9% of the original investment. Call it V.
1150.65 = 0.09 x V .
Divide each side by 0.09 :
V = 1150.65 / 0.09 = $12,785 .

3). There are 18 marbles in the bag all together.
a). 8 of them are green. If you close your eyes and pull out 1 marble,
the probability that it's a green one is
8/18 = 4/9 = 44.4% .
b). If it was a red marble, and you put it in your pocket, then
there are only 17 in the bag now, and 8 of them are still green.
If you pull another one, the probability that it's green is
8/17 = 47.1% .

5). There are 10 marbles in the bag all together.
(The second sentence doesn't say anything, and doesn't mean anything.)
If you pull out a silver marble and put it in your pocket, then
there are 9 marbles in the bag, and 2 of them are orange.
The probability of pulling an orange marble now is
2/9 = 22.2% .
The ratio 90: 105 is not equivalent to 15: 18
