Answer:
The third choice: (x² - 1)³
Step-by-step explanation:
That is the only expression that is a binomial. Binomial means "two numbers". For this expression, x² is one number, and -1 is the other. Choice 1 is a monomial (one number) and choices 2 and 4 are trinomials (three numbers)
15.87% of the population does not meet the minimum standards.
We use z-scores to find this probability:
z=(X-μ)/σ = (85-100)/15 = -15/15 = -1
Using a z-table (http://www.-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this is 0.1587. This is 15.87%.
Dear SailorMars, #4's question is very convoluted so I won't show you how to do it. Luckily, I do know how to do #5 and #6. With #5, multiply 8 5/6 by two to get 17 2/3, then do 50-17 2/3 to get 32 1/3 ft of tape. With #6, add 11 1/2 and 6 4/5 to get 18.3 gallons of gas, then do 18.3-3 3/10 to get 15 gallons of gas used.
