A: $(4x^2+1)(2x+3)$

B: grouping

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the polynomial: $p(x)=8x^3+12x^2+2x+3$

Part A: What is the correct factorization of $p(x)=8x^3+12x^2+2x+3$ over the integers?

We need to factorize the term $p(x)=8x^3+12x^2+2x+3$

Factorizing by grouping:

$p(x)=8x^3+12x^2+2x+3$

$p(x)=(8x^3+12x^2)+(2x+3)$

$p(x)=4x^2(2x+3)+1(2x+3)$

$p(x)=(4x^2+1)(2x+3)$

So, factors of the term $p(x)=8x^3+12x^2+2x+3$ are $p(x)=(4x^2+1)(2x+3)$

Part B: What method is used to factor p(x)=8x3+12x2+2x+3?

The method used to factor the given polynomial is grouping.

We group the terms and then find the common terms in that specific group

So, the answers are:

A: $(4x^2+1)(2x+3)$

B: grouping

The probability that a person is accepted for admission to a specific university is 0.6. Determine the probability that exactly

frozen [14]

Answer: the probability that exactly two of the next five people who apply to that university get accepted is 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

We would number of people that applies for admission at the university and gets accepted. The formula is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × p^r × q^(n - r)

Where

x represent the number of successes.

p represents the probability of success.

q = (1 - p) represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of trials or sample.

From the information given,

p = 0.6

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6

q = 0.4

n = 5

the probability that exactly two of the next five people who apply to that university get accepted is

P(x = 2) = 5C2 × 0.6^2 × 0.4^(5 - 2)

P(x = 2) = 10 × 0.36 × 0.064

P(x = 2) = 0.23
