The graph of the function f(x) = x3 – 7x – 6 intersects the x-axis at the points (–2, 0), (–1, 0), and (3, 0) as shown. Which ex

Alisiya [41]

The x-axis intercepts are the roots of the polynomial. So, the roots are x = - 2, x = - 1 and x = 3.

Therefore, the polynomial can be factored as:

(x - (-2)) * ( x - (-1) ) * (x - 3) = (x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3).

Answer: (x + 2) (x + 1) (x - 3)

In a string of 12 Christmas tree light bulbs, 3 are defective. The bulbs are selected at random and tested, one at a time, until

Juliette [100K]

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.

In this problem, the bulbs are chosen without replacement, hence the <em>hypergeometric distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem:

There are 12 bulbs, hence N = 12.

3 are defective, hence k = 3.

The third defective bulb is the fifth bulb if:

Two of the first 4 bulbs are defective, which is P(X = 2) when n = 4.

The fifth is defective, with probability of 1/8, as of the eight remaining bulbs, one will be defective.

Hence:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,12,4,3) = \frac{C_{3,2}C_{9,1}}{C_{12,4}} = 0.2182$

0.2182 x 1/8 = 0.0273.

0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.

if the statement "if it is snowing then it is cold outside" is assumed to be true is it reverse "if it is cold outsied then it i

Fofino [41]

No, the reverse is not always true, because it isn't always snowing outside when it's cold. However, if it's snowing outside, it must be cold as snow is, essentially, tiny bits of ice.
