4 0

Answer: b. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the indicator variable is a dummy variable in regression analysis which is used to denote either presence ( by 1 ) or absence ( by 0 ) of a nominal variable that can be responsible for the change in output.

Number of indicator variables = (all levels in the original variable)-1

Here , the given categories as per the location are northeast, northwest, southeast, or southwest.

i.e. all levels in the original variable = 4

Then, the umber of indicator variables we need = 4-1 =3

Hence, we need 3 indicator variables.

Thus , the correct answer is b. 3.

Yuma missed 5 points out of a possible 100. What decimal number represents the part of the math test she got right.
CaHeK987 [17]

0.95

Consider this question in terms of percentages ( that is, out of 100)

she got 95 questions right → 95% = \frac{95}{100} = 0.95

5x³+8x²-7x-6
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Whether we divide using long division or using synthetic division, the rule is the same:  If, after division, there is no remainder (i. e., the remainder is zero), the divisor binomial is a factor or the associated root is indeed a root/zero/solution.

Divide 5x³+8x²-7x-6 by (x+2) using synthetic division.  Use the divisor -2 (which comes from letting x+2 = 0):

      --------------------------

-2   /    5    8    -7    -6

                -10    4     6

     ------------------------------

          5      -2    -3    0          Since the remainder here is 0, we know that

                                               -2 is a root of 5x³+8x²-7x-6 and that (x+2) is

                                                a factor of 5x³+8x²-7x-6.


Now check out the possibility that (x+1) is a factor of  5x^3 + 8x^2 - 7x - 6:

Use -1 as the divisor in synthetic division:    

        --------------------------

-1   /    5    8    -7    -6

                -5   -3     10

     ------------------------------

          5      3   -10    4        

Since there is a non-zero remainder (4), we can conclude that (x + 1) is NOT a factor of the given polynomial expression.
