Answer:
The value of x is 66.
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a data set is the term that separates the lower half of the set from the upper half.
In a set with even cardinality, the median is given by the mean of it's two middle terms.
In this question:
Cardinality: 8
Middle terms: 4th and 5th, which are x - 5 and x + 1.
The median is 64.
This means that:
The value of x is 66.
Think of "multiplicity" as "exponents of the roots". So now "roots" have to do with x values. We need roots where x = 0, -1 means that "x+1=0", because when x=-1, -1+1=0, that statement is true. Since that "x+1" has a multiplicity of 2, we'll square that value:
The single root of 3 can be written as "x-3=0", because plugging in 3 for x makes that statement true: 3-3=0
Now we combine the terms by multiplying them and set that equal to 0:
The single root of 3 can be written as "x-3=0", because plugging in 3 for x makes that statement true: 3-3=0
Now we combine the terms by multiplying them and set that equal to 0:
