This is the quadratic formula
Answer:
(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
actor the following:
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:
(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16
The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)
x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):
(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)
x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:
(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):
Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Answer:
The ratios are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply both 5 and 6, the ratio stays the same.
5:6 = 10:12 = 15:18 = 20:24 etc.
You can try this by dividing the larger number by the smaller number. You'll always get 1.2 as the "relationship", or ratio, is preserved.
24/20 = 1.2
15/18 = 1.2
10/12 = 1.2
6/5 = 1.2
Since 68% of the sample ranges from the plus minus first standard deviation from the mean, then interval wherein it will occur will be between 53.5% to 60.5%. I got this answer through adding and subtracting one standard deviation (3.5) from the mean (which is 57).
