3(x^2+10x+5)-5(x-k)=
3x^2+30x+15-5x+5k=
3x^2+25x+15+5k
for this to be divisible by x every term must include x or get eliminated
the problematic terms are 15 and 5k
to eliminate them they must equal 0 when added:
15+5k=0
5k=-15
k=-3
so A) -3 is the solution
Answer:
h= 12.98 metres
Explanation:
The tree is leaning over so, the triangle is no longer right-angled.
Answer:
5, 12, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the longer leg then x + 1 is the hypotenuse and x - 7 the shorter leg
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
x² + (x - 7)² = (x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL
x² + x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1
2x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides )
x² - 16x + 48 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 4)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12
x = 4 , then x - 7 = 4 - 7 = - 3 ← not possible
x = 12, then x - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5 and x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
The lengths of the 3 sides are
longer leg = 12 m , shorter leg = 5 m and hypotenuse = 13 m
Answer:
P(X > 5) = 0.1164 to 4 d.p.
The parameters are defined in the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial distribution problem
Binomial distribution function is represented by
P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ
n = total number of sample spaces = number of potential hires = 10
x = Number of successes required = number of potential hires that have prior call centre experience = more than half; that is, x > 5
p = probability of success = probability that any potential hire will have experience = (11/30) = 0.367
q = probability of failure = probability that any potential hire will NOT have experience = 1 - p = 1 - 0.367 = 0.633
P(X > 5) = P(X=6) + P(X=7) + P(X=8) + P(X=9) + P(X=10)
Inserting the parameters and computing the probabilities for each of those values of X,
P(X > 5) = 0.11641775484 = 0.1164 to 4 d.p.
