Answer: The percent error in the player's guess is 9.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A basketball player guesses her team will score 57 points during the game.

The player's team actually scores 63 points.

i.e. The actual core = 63 points

The estimated score = 57 points

Then , the percent error in the player's guess would be :

=\dfrac{|\text{Estimated score-Actual score}|}{\text{Actual score}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{|57-63|}{63}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{|-6|}{63}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{6}{63}\times100=9.52380952381\%\\\\\approx9.5\%

Hence, the percent error in the player's guess is 9.5%.

Which sequences are geometric? Check all that apply.
IRISSAK [1]
There are no options, but I would assume that these sequences would be geometric: 16, -8, 4, -2, 1 -15, -18, -21.6, -25.92, -31.104, 625, 125, 25, 5, 1 can possibly be the correct ones.

Which of the following is not equal to sin⁡(-230°)?
xenn [34]

From trigonometry we know that:

if sin(\theta)=sin(\alpha)

then, \theta=n\pi+(-1)^n\alpha (where n is an integer)

This can be rewritten in degrees as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n\alpha.............(Equation 1)

Now, in our case, \alpha=-230^{\circ}

Therefore, (Equation 1) can be written as:

\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n(-230^{\circ})..........(Equation 2)

Now, to find the correct options all that we have to do is replace n by relevant integers and find the values of \theta that match.

For n=2, (Equation 2) gives us: \theta=2\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^2(-230^{\circ})=360^{\circ}-230^{\circ}=130^{\circ}.

Thus, sin(230^{\circ})=sin(130^{\circ})

Now, we know that: -sin(-50^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Let n=-1, then:

\theta=(-1)\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^{-1}(-230^{\circ})=-180^{\circ}+230^{\circ}=50^{\circ}

Thus, sin(-230^{\circ})=-sin(-50^{\circ})

Likewise, sin(-230^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})

Only the last option sin(-50^{\circ}) will never match sin(-230^{\circ}) because no integral value of n will ever give \theta=-50^{\circ}

Thus the last option is the correct option.

Solve x2 + 14x + 17 = –96 for x
jarptica [38.1K]

For this case we have to:

Given the quadratic equation of the form:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0

The roots are given by:

x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}

If we have: x ^ 2 + 14x + 17 = -96

We can rewrite it in the following way:

x ^ 2 + 14x + 17 + 96 = 0\\x ^ 2 + 14x + 113 = 0

Where:

a = 1\\b = 14\\c = 113

Where we have:

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {(14) ^ 2-4 (1) (113)}} {2 (1)}

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {(196-452)}} {2}

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {-256}} {2}

By definition: \sqrt {-1} = i

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {256} i} {2}

x = \frac {-14 \pm16i} {2}

x = \frac {-14} {2} \pm \frac {16i} {2}

x = -7 \pm8i

Thus, the roots are given by imaginary numbers:

x_ {1} = - 7 + 8i\\x_ {2} = - 7-8i

Answer:

x_ {1} = - 7 + 8i\\x_ {2} = - 7-8i

Multiply the polynomials (5x^2+4x-4)(4x^3-2x+6)<br> Explain your steps!!
Lapatulllka [165]
So distribute using distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac so

split it up
(5x^2+4x-4)(4x^3-2x+6)=(5x^2)(4x^3-2x+6)+(4x)(4x^3-2x+6)+(-4)(4x^3-2x+6)=[(5x^2)(4x^3)+(5x^2)(-2x)+(5x^2)(6)]+[(4x)(4x^3)+(4x)(-2x)+(4x)(6)]+[(-4)(4x^3)+(-4)(-2x)+(-4)(6)]=(20x^5)+(-10x^3)+(30x^2)+(16x^4)+(-8x^2)+(24x)+(-16x^3)+(8x)+(-24)
group like terms
[20x^5]+[16x^4]+[-10x^3-16x^3]+[30x^2-8x^2]+[24x+8x]+[-24]=20x^5+16x^4-26x^3+22x^2+32x-24

the asnwer is 20x^5+16x^4-26x^3+22x^2+32x-24
