F(1) = (1)^3 + 2(1)^2 - 5(1) - 6 = 1 + 2 - 5 - 6 = -8; x = 1 is not a solution to the polynomial.
f(-1) = (-1)^3 + 2(-1)^2 - 5(-1) - 6 = -1 + 2 + 5 - 6 = 0; x = -1 is a solution to polynomial.
From the options, a or c has x = -1, both has x = , so lets check for x = 3
f(3) = (3)^3 + 2(3)^2 - 5(3) - 6 = 27 + 18 - 15 - 6 = 24; x = 3 is not a solution to the polynomial.
Therefore the solutions to the polynomial are x = -3, x = -1, x = 2

A college administrator would like to estimate the average grade point average (average of GPA) of all the current registered st
bonufazy [111]

Answer: 346

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Margin of error : E= 0.05

Standard deviation : \sigma=0.4

Significance level :\alpha=1-0.9=0.1

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

The formula to calculate sample size ( if proportion is known) :-

n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\sigma}{E})^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=(\dfrac{(2.326\times0.4)}{0.05})^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=346.257664\approx346

Hence, the required minimum sample would be 346.
