Answer:

a = 3, b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that both the polynomials are equal.

Therefore, h(x) = k(x)

${x}^{3} + (a + b) {x}^{2} - 4x + 2 \\ = {x}^{3} + 5 {x}^{2} - (2a - b)x + 2 \\ \\ equating \: like \: terms \: on \: both \: sides \\ (a + b) {x}^{2} = 5 {x}^{2} \\ \implies \: a + b = 5.....(1) \\ \\ - (2a - b)x = - 4x \\ 2a - b = 4....(2) \\ \\ adding \: equations \: (1) \: and \: (2) \\ \\ 3a = 9 \\ \implies \: a = \frac{9}{3} \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\implies \: a = 3}} \\ \\ substituting \: a = 3 \: in \: equation \: (1) \\ 3 + b = 5 \\ \implies \: b = 5 - 3 \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \implies b = 2}}$

RSTU is a rectangle with vertices at R(-3,1), S(1 ,1), T(-3,3) and U (1, 3). Describe two lines of reflection that would carry t

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The two lines of reflection are $x=-1$ and $y=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

I will attach a file with the graph of the rectangle and the lines of reflection.

We know that RSTU is a rectangle with vertices at $R=(-3,1)$ , $S=(1,1)$ ,

$T=(-3,3)$ and $U=(1,3)$

The first step is to draw the vertices on the plane and them the rectangle.

The rectangle is a symmetrical figure. Therefore if we want to carry the rectangle onto itself using a line of reflection this line must goes through the centroid of the rectangle.

Given that we have a rectangle whose width is $a$ and its length is $b$ its centroid will be place at $(\frac{a}{2},\frac{b}{2})$ .

Looking at the graph and using this information we find that the two lines of reflection are $x=-1$ and $y=2$ .

How many cubic meters of material are there in a conical pile of dirt that has radius 11 meters and height 6 meters? Use 3.14 f

liq [111]

Answer:

2280 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone of radius r and height h is V = πr²h. Here, that volume is:

V = π(11 m)²(6 m) = 726π m³, or 2280 m³

Tina is the top seller of the store. She earns a salary plus 2%. Tina's salary is $30,000 a year. This month her sales were $48,

Lilit [14]

I'm assuming she gets 2% commission on sales and that she gets paid monthly from her yearly salary.

If the above is true, her monthly pay is calculated as follows:

Commission: 48500 * 0.02 = $970
Monthly salary: 30000 ÷ 12 = $2500

So monthly pay is $2500 + $970 = $3470

The following confidence interval for the population proportion for how many U.S. adults do not get enough fruits and vegetables

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The interval is constructed at 93% confidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the difference between these two bounds, divided by 2.

Confidence interval of proportions concepts:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
