Answer: The correct statements are
The GCF of the coefficients is correct.
The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.
David applied the distributive property.
Step-by-step explanation:
GCF = Greatest common factor
1) GCF of coefficients : (80,32,48)
80 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5
32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
GCF of coefficients : (80,32,48) is 16.
2) GCF of variables :(
)
= b × b × b × b
= b × b
=b × b × b × b
GCF of variables :(
) is 
3) GCF of
and c: c is not the GCF of the polynomial. The variable c is not common to all terms, so a power of c should not have been factored out.
4) 
David applied the distributive property.
Answer:
x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
As complex roots exist in conjugate pairs the other zero is -1 - 2i.
So in factor form we have the polynomial function:
(x - 5)(x + 3)(x - (-1 + 2i))(x - (-1 - 2i)
= (x - 5)(x + 3)( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i)
The first 2 factors = x^2 - 2x - 15 and
( x + 1 - 2i)(x +1 + 2i) = x^2 + x + 2ix + x + 1 + 2i - 2ix - 2i - 4 i^2
= x^2 + 2x + 1 + 4
= x^2 + 2x + 5.
So in standard form we have:
(x^2 - 2x - 15 )(x^2 + 2x + 5)
= x^4 + 2x^3 + 5x^2 - 2x^3 - 4x^2 - 10x - 15x^2 - 30x - 75
= x^4 - 14x^2 - 40x - 75.
Answer:
8x^2
Explanation:
First, do prime factorization of each of the coefficients:
32 ⇒ 2^5
24 ⇒ 2^3, 3
The greatest common factor (GCF) of the coefficients is 2^3 = 8.
Next, find the GCF of the variables:
x^2
x^2, y
The GCF of the variables is x^2.
Finally, multiply the GCF of the coefficients by the GCF of the variables to get:
8x^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A suitable table or calculator is needed.
One standard deviation from the mean includes 68.27% of the total, so the number of bottles in the range 20 ± 0.16 ounces will be ...
0.6827·26,000 = 17,750 . . . . . within 20 ± 0.16
__
The number below 1.5 standard deviations below the mean is about 6.68%, so for the given sample size is expected to be ...
0.66799·26,000 = 1737 . . . . . below 19.76
_____
<em>Comment on the first number</em>
The "empirical rule" tells you that 68% of the population is within 1 standard deviation (0.16 ounces) of the mean. When the number involved is expected to be expressed to 5 significant digits, your probability value needs better accuracy than that. To 6 digits, the value is 0.682689, which gives the same "rounded to the nearest integer" value as the one shown above.
