Answer:

x⁴+3x³ -5x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply this we are going to <u>multiply each term of the binomial by each term of the polynomial.</u>

(x-1)(x^{3}+4x^{2}  +4x-1)\\=x^4+4x^3+4x^2-x -x^3-4x^2-4x+1

Now we are going to <u>combine like terms (this means we are going to sum up terms with the same exponent)</u>

x^4+4x^3+4x^2-x -x^3-4x^2-4x+1 = x^4 +(4x^3-x^3)+(4x^2-4x^2)+(-x-4x)+1\\=x^4+3x^3-5x+1

Thus, the answer is x⁴+3x³ -5x +1

If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function ?? What is the equation of the new function
Bumek [7]

Answer: Choice A -- f(x) = (1/3)*|x|

============================================

The input of a function is x and the output is y = f(x)

To vertically compress a function, we will multiply the y value by some fraction smaller than 1. This is so that the y coordinates are a fraction of what they once were.

In this case, we multiply y by 1/3 so that something that has a y coordinate of y = 81 becomes y = 27 (divide by 3)

So we have y = f(x) become (1/3)*y = (1/3)*f(x) = (1/3)*|x|

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
