Answer:

5.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Linear Factorization Theorem, a polynomial function will have the same number of factors as its degree. We also know that these factors will have the form (x - c) where c is a complex number.

In this problem, and without factoring the polynomial, we observe that the <u>polynomial function is a 5 degree function so we can know that it will have 5 linear factors. </u>

Answer:

  -a^2 - a + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You only need to find the products of the first and last terms to determine the correct answer:

  (-a)(a) = -a^2

  (3)(4) = 12

You're looking for an expression with -1 as the leading coefficient and +12 as the constant. There is only one choice like that:

  -a^2 - a + 12

Answer:

350 points are possible

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 329 divided by 94% or .94 to get 350.

100% of 350 is 350

To double check, 94% of 350 is 329 & 6% of 350 is 21.  329 +21 = 350

Six distinct integers are picked from the set {1, 2, 3,…, 10}. How many selections are there, in which the second smallest integ
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1680 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of integers = 10

Number of integers to be selected = 6

Second smallest integer must be 3. This means the smallest integer can be either 1 or 2. So, there are 2 ways to select the smallest integer and only 1 way to select the second smallest integer.

<u>2 ways</u>   <u>1 way</u>  <u>       </u>  <u>        </u>  <u>        </u>  <u>        </u>

Each of the line represent the digit in the integer.

After selecting the two digits, we have 4 places which can be filled by 7 integers. Number of ways to select 4 digits from 7 will be 7P4 = 840

Therefore, the total number of ways to form 6 distinct integers according to the given criteria will be = 1 x 2 x 840 = 1680 ways

Therefore, there are 1680 ways to pick six distinct integers.
