The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

x³+x²+x+1.

Explanation:

First we write the polynomial out with all of the other powers of x, using 0 as their coefficients:

(1x⁴+0x³+0x²+0x-1)÷(x-1)

To perform synthetic division, we write the coefficients of the dividend in a row:

1 0 0 0 1

We take the 1 from x-1 and use it in the box. We then drop the first 1 from the row of coefficients down.

We multiply our 1 in the box by the 1 at the bottom; this is 1 and goes under the first 0 to the right of the 1 in the coefficients row. We now add this 0+1; this is 1 and goes at the bottom beside the other 1.

Multiply this by 1; this is 1 and goes under the second 0 from the left in the row of coefficients. Add this to the 0; this is 1 and goes at the bottom, to the right of the other two 1's.

Multiply this by 1; this is 1 and goes under the third and last 0 in the row of coefficients. Add this to the 0; this is 1 and goes at the bottom, to the right of the other three 1's.

Multiply this by 1; this is 1 and goes under the -1 in the row of coefficients. Add this to the -1; this is 0 and goes at the bottom, to the right of the four 1's. This 0 means there is no remainder and the quotient was evenly divided. It gives us

1 1 1 1 0

This means we have 1x³+1x²+1x+1 with no remainder.

Answer:

The quotient is 1x^3+1x^2+1x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (x^4-1). we have to divide this expression by (x-10 by using synthetic division.

Steps in synthetic division

Step 1: Write the coefficients of x in descending order in the dividend inside the division table.

Step 2: Drop down the first coefficient of the dividend below the division symbol.

Step 3: Multiply the drop-down by the divisor, and write the answer diagonally in the next columns.

Step 4: Add down the column.

Step 5:  Repeat Steps 4 and 5 until the last column.

Now, as shown in synthetic division table, the quotient is

1x^3+1x^2+1x+1 and remainder is 0

Is the confidence interval affected by the fact that the data appear to be from a population that is not normally​ distributed?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

D. No, because the sample size is large enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

If the sample size is higher than 30, on this case the answer would be:

D. No, because the sample size is large enough.

And the reason is given by The Central Limit Theorem since states if the individual distribution is normal then the sampling distribution for the sample mean is also normal.

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

If the sample size it's not large enough n<30, on that case the distribution would be not normal.
