<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                                                                                        3x + 3 = 7x + 10
  2. [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides:                                                                    3 = 4x + 10
  3. [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides:                                                                      -7 = 4x
  4. [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides:                                                                         -7/4 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                           x = -7/4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                     5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
  2. Multiply:                                -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  3. Add:                                      -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  4. Add:                                      -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
  5. Subtract:                               -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
  6. Subtract:                               -9/4 = -9/4

Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.

∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.

The following data are the distances between 20 retail stores and a large distribution center. The distances are in miles.
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

1191.4 ; 34.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

29; 37; 38; 40; 58; 67; 68; 69; 76; 86; 87; 95; 96; 96; 99; 106; 112; 127; 145; 150

The sample variance and standard deviation can be obtained thus :

Σ(X - m)² / (n - 1)

Where, m = mean of the sample

n = sample size

The standard deviation equals, sqrt(variance )

Using a calculator:

The variance, σ² ;

Mean = Σx / n = 1681 / 20 = 84.05

(x -m)^2

[(29-84.05)^2 + (37-84.05)^2 + (38-84.05)^2 + (40-84.05)^2 + (58-84.05)^2 + (67-84.05)^2 + (68-84.05)^2 + (69-84.05)^2 + (76-84.05)^2 + (86-84.05)^2 + (87-84.05)^2 + (95-84.05)^2 + (96-84.05)^2 + (96-84.05)^2 + (99-84.05)^2 + (106-84.05)^2 + (112-84.05)^2 + (127-84.05)^2 + (145-84.05)^2 + (150-84.05)^2] / 19

22636.95 / 19

= 1191.4184 = 1191.42

Standard deviation = sqrt( Variance)

Standard deviation = sqrt(1191.4184)

Standard deviation = 34.516929 = 34.52

Which polynomial function has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots 2i and 3i with multiplicity 1? f(x) = (x – 2i)(x – 3i) f(x) =
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

P(x)=(x-2i)(x-3i)

Step-by-step explanation:

Build a Polynomial Knowing its Roots

If we know a polynomial has roots x1, x2, ..., xn, then it can be expressed as:

P(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)...(x-xn)

Where a is the leading coefficient.

Note the roots appear with their signs changed in the polynomial.

If the polynomial has a leading coefficient of 1 and roots 2i and 3i with multiplicity 1, then:

P(x)=1(x-2i)(x-3i)

\mathbf{P(x)=(x-2i)(x-3i)}
