So focusing on x^4 + 5x^2 - 36, we will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of -36x^4 and a sum of 5x^2? That would be 9x^2 and -4x^2. Replace 5x^2 with 9x^2 - 4x^2: 
Next, factor x^4 + 9x^2 and -4x^2 - 36 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity inside of the parentheses: 
Now you can rewrite this as 
, however this is not completely factored. With (x^2 - 4), we are using the difference of squares, which is 
. Applying that here, we have 
. x^4 + 5x^2 - 36 is completely factored.
Next, focusing now on 2x^2 + 9x - 5, we will also be completing the square. What two terms have a product of -10x^2 and a sum of 9x? That would be 10x and -x. Replace 9x with 10x - x: 
Next, factor 2x^2 + 10x and -x - 5 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside: 
Now you can rewrite the equation as 
. 2x^2 + 9x - 5 is completely factored.
<h3><u>Putting it all together, your factored expression is
</u></h3>
First, you need to divide 12.5/2.5= 5. After that, you need to multiply 17.50x5=87.50. So your answer is $87.50.
The number of people who voted follows a binomial distribution with probability of having voted
and
subjects, which means the approximating normal distribution should have mean
and standard deviation
.
With the continuity correction, you have
Answer:
Tank B
Step-by-step explanation:
Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables with equivalent ratios. For a proportional relationship, one variable is always a constant value times the other. A line is a proportional relationship if it starts from the origin, but if it does not start from the origin, it is not proportional.
From the two tanks, we can see that tank A have a y intercept whereas tank B starts from the origin. Therefore tank B shows a proportional relationship.
