The graph of a polynomial function has zeroes 0 (multiplicity 2) , 1 (multiplicity 2), and 5/2 (multiplicity 2). Write a functio

pogonyaev

Answer:

x^6 - 7x^5 + 69/4x^4 + -35/2x^3 + 25/4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2(x-1)^2(x-5/2)^2 is the factored form of the polynomial. Now you simplify it to convert to standard form.

What type of error is present in the underlined

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Type of error: Run-on(comma splice).

Best revision to fix it: Adding a semicolon after beginners .

Explanation:

A run-on sentence is described as a sentence in which two independent clauses are joined inappropriately. It could be either comma splice where the two independent clauses are incorrectly linked using a comma or fused sentence when the two clauses run-on without employing appropriate coordinating conjunction or punctuation marks to separate the two ideas.

In the given sentence, it exemplifies a comma splice type of run-on sentence error. To fix this error, a semicolon after 'beginners' can be employed instead of a comma. This will help in connecting the two ideas appropriately where the first idea leads the second. Thus, the final sentence reads as:

'The guitar is another excellent instrument for beginners; however, it takes more practice than a recorder.'

A paper describes a study in which researchers observed wait times in coffee shops in Boston. Both wait time and gender of the c

kvasek [131]

Answer:

$t=\frac{85.8-113.4}{\sqrt{\frac{(50)^2}{145}+\frac{(75)^2}{141}}}}=-3.65$

$p_v =2*P(t_{(284)}$

Using Excel we can use the following code: "=2*T.DIST(-3.65;284;TRUE)"

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level giveen $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that the means are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$\bar X_{M}=85.8$ represent the mean for the males

$\bar X_{F}=113.4$ represent the mean for females

$s_{M}=50$ represent the sample standard deviation for males

$s_{F}=75$ represent the sample standard deviation for female

$n_{M}=145$ sample size for the group poisoned

$n_{F}=141$ sample size for the group unpoisoned

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean for the two groups are equal or not , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{M} = \mu_{F}$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_{M} \neq \mu_{F}$

If we analyze the size for the samples both are higher than 30 but the population deviations are not given, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X_{M}-\bar X_{F}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{M}}{n_{M}}+\frac{s^2_{F}}{n_{F}}}}$ (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

3) Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the results obtained like this:

$t=\frac{85.8-113.4}{\sqrt{\frac{(50)^2}{145}+\frac{(75)^2}{141}}}}=-3.65$

4) Statistical decision

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n_{M}+n_{F}-2=145+141-2=284$

Since is a two tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{(284)}$

Using Excel we can use the following code: "=2*T.DIST(-3.65;284;TRUE)"

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level giveen $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that the means are different.

Find the equation of the line through ( - 10, - 8) that is perpendicular to the line through (10,6), (5,5).

Furkat [3]

Answer:

y=-5x-58

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.

Anyways we need to find the slope of the line going through (10,6) and (5,5).

To find the slope, we are going to line up the points vertically and subtract vertically, then put 2nd difference over 1st difference. Like so:

( 10 , 6)

- ( 5 , 5)

------------------

5 1

So the slope of the line through (10,6) and (5,5) is 1/5.

The slope of a line that is perpendicular will be the opposite reciprocal of 1/5.

The opposite reciprocal of 1/5 is -5.

The line we are looking for is y=-5x+b where we need to find the y-intercept b.

y=-5x+b goes through (-10,-8)

So we can use (x,y)=(-10,-8) to find b in y=-5x+b.

y=-5x+b with (x,y)=(-10,-8)

-8=-5(-10)+b

-8=50+b

Subtract 50 on both sides:

-8-50=b

-58=b

So the equation is y=-5x-58
