Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{4}{3}x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through the origin has an equation y = mx

m - slope

The formula of a slope of a line passes through the origin

and a point (x, y):

$m=\dfrac{y}{x}$

We have the point (6, 8). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{8}{6}=\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}=\dfrac{4}{3}$

Finally:

$y=\dfrac{4}{3}x$

Which answer best describes the complex zeros of the polynomial function?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer-

D. The function has one real zero and two nonreal zeros. The graph of the function intersects the x-axis at exactly one location.

Solution-

The given polynomial is,

$f(x)=x^3-x^2+6x-6$

The zeros of the polynomials are,

$\Rightarrow f(x)=0$

$\Rightarrow x^3-x^2+6x-6=0$

$\Rightarrow x^2(x-1)+6(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^2+6)(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x^2+6)=0,(x-1)=0$

$\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{-6},\ x=1$

$\Rightarrow x=1,\ \pm \sqrt6i$

Therefore, this function has only one real zero i.e 1 and two nonreal zeros i.e ±√6i . The graph of the function intersects the x-axis at exactly one location i.e at x = 1

In a sample of 800 U.S. adults, 199 think that most celebrities are good role models. Two Two U.S. adults are selected at rand

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a sample of 800 U.S. adults, 199 think that most celebrities are good role models. Two Two U.S. adults are selected at random from the population of all U.S. adults without replacement.

In 800 adults 199 are favourable and remaining 601 are against.

a) The probability that both adults think most celebrities are good role models is ________= Prob of selecting both from 199

= $\frac{199C2}{800C2} \\=0.0616$

=0.062

b) The probability that neither adult thinks most celebrities are good role models is _______=P(both selecting from 601)

= $\frac{601C2}{800C2} \\=0.5641$

=0.564

c) The probability that at least one of the two adults thinks most celebrities are good role models ______

=1-Prob that neither thinks

= 1- 0.564

= 0.436
