Which is true about the completely simplified difference of the polynomials 6x6 − x3y4 − 5xy5 and 4x5y + 2x3y4 + 5xy5?

Galina-37 [17]

<span>Let be A= 6x6 − x3y4 − 5xy5 and B= 4x5y + 2x3y4 + 5xy5 and when we do their difference, it is A - B = 6x6 − x3y4 − 5xy5 -( 4x5y + 2x3y4 + 5xy5)=6x6 − x3y4 − 5xy5 - 4x5y - 2x3y4 - 5xy5 = 6x6 - x3y4 - 2x3y4 - 5xy5 -4xy5 -5xy5=6x6 - 3x3y4 -14xy5, so the final solution is A - B =6x6 - 3x3y4 -14xy5, the degree of this is equal to the degree of - 3x3y4, and it is 3+4=7, the answer is The difference has 3 terms and a degree of 7.</span>

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school degree as their highest educational level, or they do not. The probability of an adult having it is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

30.4% of U.S. adults 25 years old or older have a high school degree as their highest educational level.

This means that $p = 0.304$

100 such adults

This means that $n = 100$

Determine the probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is a. Exactly 32

This is P(X = 32).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 32) = C_{100,32}.(0.304)^{32}.(0.696)^{68} = 0.0803$

0.0803 = 8.03% probability that the number who have a high school degree as their highest educational level is exactly 32.

Which graph represents the function f(x)=2^x+3 ?

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

When answering this, you need to look at the equation. It has a Y-intercept of 3. Just by seeing that, you can tell the last graph is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation

Y-intercept is +3 which means it the line crosses the y axis at positive 3.
