Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.

Cube root of x^3 is x.
Cube root of 8 is 2
So
a=x
b= 2.

Set these equations equal to zero



If we do the discriminant, we get a negative answer so we would have two imaginary solutions,
Thus the only real root is 2.
If you want imaginary solutions, apply the quadratic formula.

Answer:
95.64% probability that pledges are received within 40 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that pledges are received within 40 days
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 40. So



has a pvalue of 0.9564
95.64% probability that pledges are received within 40 days
Answer:
3/2(x+y)
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of 2 DVD is x+y
Divide by 2 to get the cost of one DVD
(x+y) /2
Multiply by 3 to get the cost of 3
3/2(x+y)
