We can one theorem to help us find rational roots of this polynomial.

2x^3 + x^2 - 4x - 2

We'll use Descartes' rule of signs.

Because there is 1 sign change, 1 of the 3 roots will be positive.

Now we can make the value of x -1 to see how many negative roots there will be.

-2  + 1 + 4 - 2

There are 2 sign changes, so we know there will be 2 negative roots.

Because of this, we should have 3 real, rational roots.

Lynna [10]

Answer:

For 99% of confidence interval is 67.5±1.3524

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean height =67.5 inches

Standard deviation:2.1 inches

Z at 99%.

No of samples 16.

To find:

confidence interval

Solution:

We have formula for confidence interval,

=mean ±Z*{standard deviation/sqrt(no.of observation)}

Now

Z=99%

has  standard  value as ,

Z=2.576

Confidence interval= mean±Z{standard deviation/sqrt(No. of samples)}

=67.5±2.57{(2.1/sqrt(16)}

=67.5±2.576(2.1/4)

=67.5±1.3524

A football is thrown from the stadium. The height of this football can be represented by the polynomial -16t2 +32t + 20, where t
olasank [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

related equation

-16t^2 + 32t + 20 = 0

-4t^2 + 8t + 5 = 0

Δ/4 = 16 + 20 = 36

t1 = (-4 + 6)/-4 = -1/2

t2 = (-4 - 6)/-4 = 5/2

-16(t+1/2)(t-5/2)

-16(2t+1/2)(2t-5/2)

-4(2t+1)(2t-5)
