Answer:

The correct answer is - C. 24.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

mean μ = 65%

standard deviation δ = 7.1 %

solution:

Prob( X>70) = 1 - Prob(x<70)  

= P (x-μ/δ ≥ 70 -65/7.1)

= 1 - Prob( (70-65)/7.1)

= 1 - Prob ( z < 0.7042553)

= 0.24065

the percentage of students scoring 70 or more in the exam

= 24.065*100

= 24.1%

Find k if (x+1) 2x^3+kx^2+1
Viktor [21]
<h2>Question:</h2>

Find k if (x+1) is a factor of 2x³ + kx² + 1

<h2>Answer:</h2>

k = 1

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The factor of a polynomial F(x) is another polynomial that divides evenly into F(x). For example, x + 3 is a factor of the polynomial x² - 9.

<em>This is because;</em>

i. x² - 9 can be written as (x - 3)(x + 3) which shows that both (x - 3) and (x + 3) are factors.

ii. If x = -3 is substituted into the polynomial x² - 9, the result gives zero. i.e

=> (-3)² - 9

=> (9) - 9 = 0

Therefore, if (x + a) is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = -a into the polynomial should result to zero. This also means that, if x - a is a factor of a polynomial, substituting x = a into the polynomial should give zero.

<em><u>From the question</u></em>

Given polynomial: 2x³ + kx² + 1

Given factor: x + 1.

Since x + 1 is a factor of the polynomial, substituting x = -1 into the polynomial should give zero and from there we can calculate the value of k. i.e

2(-1)³ + k(-1)² + 1 = 0

2(-1) + k(1) + 1 = 0

-2 + k + 1 = 0

k - 1 = 0

k = 1

Therefore the value of k is 1.

When homeowners list their home for sale, they begin by listing it for a price that is greater
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

-0.924

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude of the correlation coefficient is the square root of the variation.

|r| = √0.854

|r| = 0.924

The sign of the correlation coefficient is the same as the slope of the line of best fit.  In this case, it's negative.

r = -0.924
