Answer:

The factors are (x - 1)(x - 5)(x + 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Long division:

x - 5 )x^3 - 4x^2 - 7x + 10( x^2 + x - 2 <--------- Quotient.

x^3 - 5x^2

x^2 - 7x

x^2 - 5x

- 2x + 10

-2x + 10

...........

x^ 2 + x - 2 = (x + 2)(x - 1).

The manager of a grocery store wants to determine the average amount of money spent at his store as it compares to the average d

JulijaS [17]

For the manager's store

Population size: 15
Arithmetic mean (μ): 37.6
Standard deviation (σ): 11,056

For the competitor's store

Population size: 15
Arithmetic mean (μ): 48,533
Standard deviation (σ): 28,356

For the manager's store the average is a better representation of the data since it does not have Outlier points in the box diagram. Also the median is close to the average.

For the competition store the average of the data collected is not as good representation of the data since they are dispersed from the mean with a standard deviation of 28.35. It also presents Outliers points in the box diagram, such as 112 which is very far from the average

Solve quadratic equation 10x^2+x-2=0

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$\{-\frac{1}{2} \} \cup \{\frac{2}{5}\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$10x^2 + x - 2 = 0; \\ a = 10, b = 1, c = -2; \\ D = b^2 - 4ac = 1^2 - 4 * 10 * (-2) = 1 + 80 = 81 = 9^2, > 0; \\ x_{1, 2} = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{D}}{2a} = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{9^2}}{2 * 10} = \frac{-1 \pm 9}{20} = \left \ [ {{\frac{-1 - 9}{20} = -\frac{10}{20} = -\frac{1}{2} } \atop {\frac{-1 + 9}{20} = \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}}} \right.$
