Let t represent an unknown number. What is the value

Mathematics

There are two possible answers:

t = 2/3   or   t = -1/3

========================================================

Explanation:

The expression x+3 is the same as x-(-3). It is of the form x-k

Recall that by the remainder theorem, we know that p(x) is divisible by (x-k) if and only if p(k) = 0.

In this case, k = -3. Plug this into the p(x) function and we get

p(x) = t^2*x^3 - 3t*x + 6

p(-3) = t^2*(-3)^3 - 3t*(-3) + 6

p(-3) = -27t^2 + 9t + 6

Set that equal to 0

p(-3) = 0

-27t^2 + 9t + 6 = 0

-3(9t^2 - 3t - 2) = 0

9t^2 - 3t - 2 = 0

Now apply the quadratic formula to solve for t

t = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\t = \frac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(9)(-2)}}{2(9)}\\\\t = \frac{3\pm\sqrt{81}}{18}\\\\t = \frac{3\pm9}{18}\\\\t = \frac{3+9}{18}\ \text{ or } \ t = \frac{3-9}{18}\\\\t = \frac{12}{18}\ \text{ or } \ t = \frac{-6}{18}\\\\t = \frac{2}{3}\ \text{ or } \ t = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

We get two possible solutions for t.

If P=(2,-1),find the image of P under the following rotation. 180 degrees counterclockwise about the origin
vichka [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (-2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotating a point 180° about the origin in either direction is equivalent to reflecting it across the origin. The effect is to negate both coordinates.

  (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y) . . . . . rotation 180°

  (2, -1) ⇒ (-2, 1) . . . . . P' rotated 180° from P

The coordinates of the rotated point are (-2, 1).

Let X be the random variable denoting the number of girls that are born. Then X has a binomial distribution on n=125 babies and probability of getting a girl p=0.5. The probability we want is

\mathbb P(X\ge60)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=60}^{125}\binom{125}x0.5^{125-x}0.5^x\approx0.704=70.4\%
