$(5x - 7) * (9x^2 - 4x - 8)$

1.) Try using the FOIL method (First*first, outside*outside, inside*inside, last*last):

$(5x)(9x^2) + (5x)(-4x) + (5x)(-8) + (-7)(9x^2)$

2.) Multiply the bases and add the exponents:

$45x^3 - 20x^2 - 40x - 63^2 + 28x + 56$

3.) Look for the variables without exponents:

$-40x + 28x$ = 28x

$45^3 - 83x^2 - 12x + 56$

mina [271]

The problem gives us points (4, 12) and (11,26). We first find the slope using m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). We substitute and get m=(26-12)/(11-4). This simplifies to m = 2. We can then use the point-slope form y-y1 = m(x-x1). We substitute and get y - 12 = 2(x - 4). We distribute: y - 12 = 2x - 8. We add 12 to both sides to get our final answer, y = 2x + 4.

Cole said All prime numbers are odd and all composite numbers are even do you agree with cole?

Anit [1.1K]

A prime number is such that it is divisible by only itself and one. ... Two is a prime because it is divisible by only two and one. All the other even numbers are not prime because they are all divisible by two. That leaves only the odd numbers.

Answer:

(a) The probability that a randomly selected woman shop exactly two hours online is 0.217.

(b) The probability that a randomly selected woman shop 4 or more hours online is 0.0338.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = time spent per week shopping online.

It is provided that the random variable X follows a Poisson distribution.

The probability function of a Poisson distribution is:

$P (X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!} ;\ x=0,1,2,...$

The average time spent per week shopping online is, λ = 1.2.

(a)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected woman shop exactly two hours online over a one-week period as follows:

$P (X=2)=\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{2}}{2!} =0.21686\approx0.217$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected woman shop exactly two hours online is 0.217.

(b)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected woman shop 4 or more hours online over a one-week period as follows:

P (X ≥ 4) = 1 - P (X < 4)

= 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1) - P (X = 2) - P (X = 3)

$=1-\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{0}}{0!}-\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{1}}{1!}-\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{2}}{2!}-\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{2}}{3!}\\=1-0.3012-0.3614-0.2169-0.0867\\=0.0338$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected woman shop 4 or more hours online is 0.0338.

(c)

Compute the probability that a randomly selected woman shop less than 5 hours online over a one-week period as follows:

P (X < 5) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + P (X = 3) + P (X = 4)

$=\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{2}}{2!}+\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{3}}{3!}+\frac{e^{1.2}(1.2)^{4}}{4!}\\=0.3012+0.3614+0.2169+0.0867+0.0260\\=0.9922$

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected woman shop less than 5 hours online is 0.9922.
