Answer:

B = (A - 6) / 10

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem has 2 variables and 1 equation so it is not trivial to solve with confidence the value of B; however, we can solve for B in terms of A. With that being said, let's start.

If A divided by B = 10:

A/B = 10

10 remainder of 6

Could also be written as 10 & 6/B since B is the divisor. Rewrite this, you can get the equation:

A/B = (10B + 6) / B

A = 10B + 6

A - 6 = 10B

B = (A - 6) / 10

Thus, you have solve B in terms of A.

Cheers.

Answer: A

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = x³ + 4x² + 7x + 6

possible rational roots are ±{1, 2, 3, 6}

Try x = -2

-2 | 1 4 7 6

1 2 3 0 ← remainder is 0 so x = -2 is a root ⇒ (x + 2) = 0

The factored polynomial x² + 2x + 3 = 0 is not factorable so use the quadratic formula to find the roots.

a=1, b=2, c=3

$x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

$x=\dfrac{-(2)\pm\sqrt{(2)^2-4(1)(3)} }{2(1)}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{4-12} }{2}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{-8} }{2}$

$x=\dfrac{-2\pm2i\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$x = -1 \pm i\sqrt{2}$

$x = -1 + i\sqrt{2}$ $x = -1 - i\sqrt{2}$

$x - (-1 + i\sqrt{2})=0$ $x - (-1 - i\sqrt{2})=0$

The factors are:

$(x - 2)[x - (-1 + i\sqrt{2})][x - (-1 - i\sqrt{2})]$

Anyone I need help with this problem plss

Answer:

About 1.23 standard deviation above the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

From what we have here, we need to calculate the difference between the given value and the mean and divide by the standard deviation

That would be through calculating the z score as follows;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

where x is the given value

z-score = (87-71)/13 = 1.23

Since the score is bigger than the mean, the correct choice here is that the score is about 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
