A. The area of a square is given as:

A = s^2

Where s is a measure of a side of a square. s = (2 x – 5) therefore,

A = (2 x – 5)^2                  

Expanding,

A = 4 x^2 – 20 x + 25

 

B. The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable x, in this case 2. Therefore the expression obtained in part A is of 2nd degree.

Furthermore, polynomials are classified according to the number of terms in the expression. There are 3 terms in the expression therefore it is classified as a trinomial.

 

<span>C. The closure property demonstrates that during multiplication or division, the coefficients and power of the variables are affected while during multiplication or division, only the coefficients are affected while the power remain the same.</span>

The average high-school teacher annual salary is $43,000. Let teacher salary be normally distributed with a standard deviation o
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

a) 0.219

b) 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 43000, \sigma = 18000

a. What percent of high school teachers make between $40,000 and $50,000?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 50,000 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 40,000.

So

X = 50,000

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{50000 - 43000}{18000}

Z = 0.39

Z = 0.39 has a pvalue of 0.6517.

X = 40,000

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{40000 - 43000}{18000}

Z = -0.17

Z = -0.17 has a pvalue of 0.4325

So 0.6517 - 0.4325 = 0.219 = 21.9% of high school teachers make between $40,000 and $50,000.

b. What percent of high school teachers make more than $80,000?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 80000. SO

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{80000 - 43000}{18000}

Z = 2.06

Z = 2.06 has a pvalue of 0.9803.

So 1-0.9803 = 0.0197 = 0.02 = 2% of high school teachers make more than $80,000.
