Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Brandon has a 25% chance of hitting a target, and there is 8 targets, you can take 25% of 8. This will get you an answer of 2. So, in this way Brandon has a 90% chance of hitting at least one target.

What is the 18th term of the arithmetic
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

J

-66

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 2

n = 18

d = - 4

a18  =  a1 + (n - 1) * d

a18 = 2 + (18 - 1)*(-4)

a18 = 2 + 17*-4

a18 = 2 - 68

a18 = -66

Find a polynomial of degree 3 with real coefficients and zeros of -3,-1, and 4, for which f(-2)=-24
Zanzabum

We want to find a polynomial

<em>f(x)</em> = <em>a</em> <em>x</em>³ + <em>b</em> <em>x</em>² + <em>c</em> <em>x</em> + <em>d</em>

such that the roots of <em>f</em> are <em>x</em> = -3, <em>x</em> = -1, and <em>x</em> = 4, and <em>f(x)</em> takes on a value of -24 when <em>x</em> = -2.

The factor theorem for polynomials tells us that we can factorize <em>f(x)</em> as

<em>a</em> <em>x</em>³ + <em>b</em> <em>x</em>² + <em>c</em> <em>x</em> + <em>d</em> = <em>a</em> (<em>x</em> + 3) (<em>x</em> + 1) (<em>x</em> - 4)

Expand the right side:

(<em>x</em> + 3) (<em>x</em> + 1) (<em>x</em> - 4) = <em>x</em>³ - 13<em>x</em> - 12

So we have

<em>a</em> <em>x</em>³ + <em>b</em> <em>x</em>² + <em>c</em> <em>x</em> + <em>d</em> = <em>a x</em>³ - 13<em>a</em> <em>x</em> - 12<em>a</em>

<em />

In order for both sides to be equal, the coefficients of both polynomials on terms of the same degree must be equal. This means

<em>a</em> = <em>a</em> (of course)

<em>b</em> = 0 (there is no <em>x</em>² term on the right)

<em>c</em> = -13<em>a</em>

<em>d</em> = -12<em>a</em>

<em />

We also have that <em>f</em> (-2) = -24, which means

<em>f</em> (-2) = <em>a</em> (-2 + 3) (-2 + 1) (-2 - 4)

-24 = 6<em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = -4

which in turn tells us that <em>c</em> = 52 and <em>d</em> = 48.

So we found

<em>f(x)</em> = -4<em>x</em>³ + 52<em>x</em> + 48

For a 2 week period Jan earned $150 less than twice toms earnings together Jen and tom earned 1380$ how much did tom earn?
nika2105 [10]
Given:
Tom's earnings: x
Jan's earnings: 2x - 150
Total earnings: 1380

x + 2x - 150 = 1380
3x = 1380 + 150
3x = 1530
3x/3 = 1530/3
x = 510

Tom's earnings: x = 510
Jan's earnings: 2x - 150 = 2(510) - 150 = 1,020 - 150 = 870
total earnings: 1,380

510 + 870 = 1,380
1,380 = 1,380
