Answer:

x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of the polynomial sum to zero, that is

- 1 + 2 + 1 - 2 = 0

This indicates that x = 1 is a zero

let x = - 1, then

- (- 1)³ + 2(- 1)² + (- 1) - 2 = 1 + 2 - 1 - 2 = 0

Thus x = - 1 is a zero

let x = 2

- (2)³ + 2(2)² + 2 - 2 = - 8 + 8 + 2 - 2 = 0

Thus x = 2 is a zero

The 3 zeros are x = - 1, x = 1, x = 2

If IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15, what is the mean IQ score after the sco

lianna [129]

Answer:

$\mu = 0 , \sigma=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the IQ scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(100,15)$
