Answer:

$\boxed{\text{101 fl oz}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Convert litres to millilitres

$\text{V} = \text{3 L} \times \dfrac{\text{1000 mL}}{\text{1 L}} = \text{3000 mL}$

Step 2.Convert millilitres to fluid ounces

$\text{v} = \text{3000 mL} \times \dfrac{\text{1 fl oz}}{\text{29.6 mL}} = \boxed{\textbf{101 fl oz}}$

Based on historical data, your manager believes that 41% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability that the sample proportion is between 0.35 and 0.5 is 0.7895

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.35 and 0.5 we need to know the z-scores of the sample proportions 0.35 and 0.5.

z-score of the sample proportion is calculated as

z= $\frac{p(s)-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{N} } }$ where

p(s) is the sample proportion of first time customers
p is the proportion of first time customers based on historical data

N is the sample size

For the sample proportion 0.35:

z(0.35)= $\frac{0,35-0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41*0.59}{72} } }$ ≈ -1.035

For the sample proportion 0.5:

z(0.5)= $\frac{0,5-0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41*0.59}{72} } }$ ≈ 1.553

The probabilities for z of being smaller than these z-scores are:

P(z<z(0.35))= 0.1503

P(z<z(0.5))= 0.9398

Then the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.35 and 0.5 is

P(z(0.35)<z<z(0.5))= 0.9398 - 0.1503 =0.7895

I really need it to be sold in imaginary numbers

Yuliya22 [10]

Solving a 5th grade polynomial

We want to find the answer of the following polynomial:

$x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72=0$

We can see that the last term is -72

We want to find all the possible numbers that can divide it. Those are:

{±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±6, ±8, ±9, ±12, ±18, ±36, ±72}

We want to factor this polynomial in order to find all the possible x-values. In order to factor it we will have to find some binomials that can divide it using the set of divisors of -72.

We know that if

(x - z) is a divisor of this polynomial then z might be a divisor of the last term -72.

We will verify which is a divisor using synthetic division. If it is a divisor then we can factor using it:

Let's begin with

(x-z) = (x - 1)

We want to divide

$\frac{(x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72)}{x-1}$

Using synthetic division we have that if the remainder is 0 it will be a factor

We can find the remainder by replacing x = z in the polynomial, when it is divided by (x - z). It is to say, that if we want to know if (x -1) is a factor of the polynomial we just need to replace x by 1, and see the result:

If the result is 0 it is a factor

If it is different to 0 it is not a factor

Replacing x = 1

If we replace x = 1, we will have that:

$\begin{gathered} x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72 \\ \downarrow \\ 1^5+3\cdot1^4+3\cdot1^3+19\cdot1^2-54\cdot1-72 \\ =1+3+3+19-54-72 \\ =-100 \end{gathered}$

Then the remainder is not 0, then (x - 1) is not a factor.

Similarly we are going to apply this until we find factors:

(x - z) = (x + 1)

We replace x by -1:

$\begin{gathered} x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72 \\ \downarrow \\ (-1)^5+3\cdot(-1)^4+3\cdot(-1)^3+19\cdot(-1)^2-54\cdot(-1)-72 \\ =-1+3-3+19+54-72 \\ =0 \end{gathered}$

Then, (x + 1) is a factor.

Using synthetic division we have that:

Then:

$x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72=(x+1)(x^4+2x^3+x^2+18x-72)$

Now, we want to factor the 4th grade polynomial.

Let's remember our possibilities:

{±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±6, ±8, ±9, ±12, ±18, ±36, ±72}

Since we verified ±1, let's try with ±2 as we did before.

(x - z) = (x - 2)

We want to divide:

$\frac{x^4+2x^3+x^2+18x-72}{x-2}$

We replace x by z = 2:

$\begin{gathered} x^4+2x^3+x^2+18x-72 \\ \downarrow \\ 2^4+2\cdot2^3+2^2+18\cdot2-72 \\ =16+16+4+36-72 \\ =0 \end{gathered}$

Then (x - 2) is a factor. Let's do the synthetic division:

Then,

$x^4+2x^3+x^2+18x-72=(x-2)(x^3+4x^2+9x+36)$

Then, our original polynomial is:

$\begin{gathered} x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72 \\ =\mleft(x+1\mright)\mleft(x^4+2x^3+x^2+18x-72\mright) \\ =(x-1)(x-2)(x^3+4x^2+9x+36) \end{gathered}$

Now, let's prove if (x +2) is a factor, using the new 3th grade polynomial.

(x - z) = (x + 2)

We replace x by z = -2:

$\begin{gathered} x^3+4x^2+9x+36 \\ \downarrow \\ (-2)^3+4(-2)^2+9(-2)+36 \\ =-8+16-18+36 \\ =26 \end{gathered}$

Since the remainder is not 0, (x +2) is not a factor.

All the possible cases are:

{±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±6, ±8, ±9, ±12, ±18, ±36, ±72}

let's prove with +4

(x - z) = (x + 4)

We want to divide:

$\frac{x^3+4x^2+9x+36}{x+4}$

Let's replace x by z = -4 in order to find the remainder:

$\begin{gathered} x^3+4x^2+9x+36 \\ \downarrow \\ (-4)^3+4(-4)^2+9(-4)+36 \\ =-64+64-36+36 \\ =0 \end{gathered}$

Then (x + 4) is a factor. Let's do the synthetic division:

Then,

$x^3+4x^2+9x+36=(x+4)(x^2+9)$

Since

x² + 9 cannot be factor, we have completed our factoring:

$\begin{gathered} x^5+3x^4+3x^3+19x^2-54x-72 \\ =(x-1)(x-2)(x^3+4x^2+9x+36) \\ =(x-1)(x-2)(x+4)(x^2+9) \end{gathered}$

Now, we have the following expression:

$(x-1)(x-2)(x+4)(x^2+9)=0$

Then, we have five posibilities:

(x - 1) = 0

or (x - 2) = 0

or (x + 4) = 0

or (x² + 9) = 0

Then, we have five solutions;

x - 1 = 0 → x₁ = 1

x - 2 = 0 → x₂ = 2

x + 4 = 0 → x₃ = -4

x² + 9 = 0 → x² = -9 → x = ±√-9 = ±√9√-1 = ±3i

→ x₄ = 3i

→ x₅ = -3i

<h2><em>Answer- the solutions of the polynomial are: x₁ = 1, x₂ = 2, x₃ = -4, x₄ = 3i and x₅ = -3i</em></h2>

How is estimating quotients different from estimating products?

tatyana61 [14]

Quotients can sometimes be irrational so it is necessary to estimate them, products on the other hand are only rational, provided they aren't multiplied by an irrational, so it is not necessary to estimate
