Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
you can divide both sides by 2.35 to get the right side to be 1:

Answer:
Yes, it's a rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/7. It is a rational because. It can be written as p/q form. Where p/q are non zero number. And in decimal it would be -0.42
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x+4(x^2+2x-3)=4x^2+9x-12
f'(x)=8x+9
f'(x)=0,gives x=-9/8
f(-5)=-5+4(-5-1)(-5+3)=-5+4*-6*-2=43
f(-9/8)=-9/8+4(-9/8-1)(-9/8+3)
=-9/8+4*-17/8*15/8
=-9/8-255/16
=-273/16=-17 1/16
f(5)=4*5^2+9*5-12=100+45-12=133
absolute maximum=133
absolute minimum=-17 1/16
The expected length of code for one encoded symbol is

where
is the probability of picking the letter
, and
is the length of code needed to encode
.
is given to us, and we have

so that we expect a contribution of

bits to the code per encoded letter. For a string of length
, we would then expect
.
By definition of variance, we have
![\mathrm{Var}[L]=E\left[(L-E[L])^2\right]=E[L^2]-E[L]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BL%5D%3DE%5Cleft%5B%28L-E%5BL%5D%29%5E2%5Cright%5D%3DE%5BL%5E2%5D-E%5BL%5D%5E2)
For a string consisting of one letter, we have

so that the variance for the length such a string is

"squared" bits per encoded letter. For a string of length
, we would get
.
$1,365 is the answer, (the third choice)
