Answer:

A∩B= 212/1492 = 53/373

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of employees who have children is A and the number of employees who drive to work is B. Then we have these values

A= 966/ 1492

B= 488/ 1492

A or B = A ∪ B = 621/746 = 1242/1492

The question is asking the probability that an employee has children and drives to work(A∩B). Using the union formula, we can find the answer. The calculation will be:

A ∪ B = A + B - A∩B

1242/1492 = 966/ 1492 +  488/ 1492 - A∩B

A∩B= 1454/1492- 1242/1492

A∩B= 212/1492= 53/373

OLEGan [10]
The <u>correct answer</u> is:

Experiment

Explanation:

In an experiment, one group is given a treatment while at least one other group is not.  After the treatment is finished, the results of the group that receive the treatment are compared with the results of the group (or groups) that do not receive the treatment, to determine if the treatment had any effect on the group.

In this problem, the different groups are the classes.  Some classes use the new method, which is the treatment, while other classes do not.  At the end of the year, the reading results of each class are compared to see if the treatment (new method) had any effect.

Which of the following functions best represents the graph?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

f(x)=x^3+x^2-4x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, the x-intercepts are;

x=-2

x=-1

x=2

These are root of the polynomial function represented by the given graph.

By the remainder theorem;

f(-2)=0,f(-1)=0,f(2)=0

According to the factor theorem, if (x-a) is a factor of f(x), then f(a)=0

This implies that;

(x+2),(x+1),(x-2) are factors of the required function.

Hence; f(x)=(x+1)(x-2)(x+2)

We expand using difference of two squares to obtain;

f(x)=(x+1)(x^2-4)

We expand using the distributive property to get;

f(x)=x^3-4x+x^2-4

Rewrite in standard form to obtain;

f(x)=x^3+x^2-4x-4
