The factors are 3x, 4x^2-3 and 5x+2

So, Option B, C and F are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find factors of the expression $p(x)=60x^4+24x^3-45x^2-18x$

Solving the expression: $p(x)=60x^4+24x^3-45x^2-18x$

Taking 3x common:

$p(x)=3x(20x^3+8x^2-15x-6)$

Now, factor by grouping, the terms inside the bracket.

$p(x)=3x((20x^3+8x^2)+(-15x-6))$

$p(x)=3x(4x^2(5x+2)-3(5x+2))$

$p(x)=3x(4x^2-3)(5x+2)$

So, the factors are 3x, 4x^2-3 and 5x+2

So, Option B, C and F are correct.

Oak pollen sent 21,000 people to U.S. emergency rooms for asthma in 2010. By 2090 the rate could climb another 5 or 10 percent.

Gnesinka [82]

The probable number of prople sent to US emergency rooms by 2090 can be between 22,050 and 23,100

Step-by-step explanation:

Total sent to US emergency room by 2010= 21000

The estimated increase in the rise of cases = 5 to 10% by 2090

Final numbers in 2090

Hence the final numbers in 2090 would be 5 to 10% more than the total cases in 2010

Lower limit= 5% of 21000= 1050

Hence lower limit of cases in 2090= 21000+1050= 22050

Upper limit of cases in 2090= 10% of 21000= 21000+2100= 23,100

The number would lie anywhere between 22050 and 23,100 in 2090

The frequency of an AM radio is 1.4 x 106 hertz (cycles per second). Approximately, how many cycles are completed in a minute?

Vadim26 [7]

<span>There are 8,904 cycles per minute. This would be determining the amount of cycles per second, which is 148.4. After you know the amount per second, you can then multiply it by the time, which in this case is 60 seconds, or 1 minute. 148.4 cycles per second multiplied by 60 seconds is 8,904 cycles.</span>

Trials in an experiment with a polygraph include results that include cases of wrong results and cases of correct results. Use a

hram777 [196]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

This is a complete question

Trials in an experiment with a polygraph include 97 results that include 23 cases of wrong results and 74 cases of correct results. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that such polygraph results are correct less than 80% of the time. Identify the nullhypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method. Use the normal distribution as an approximation of the binomial distribution.

The computation is shown below:

The null and alternative hypothesis is

$H_0 : p = 0.80$
