Answer:
29.7 is the standard deviation :)
Upon a slight rearrangement this problem gets a lot simpler to see.
x^3-x+2x^2-2=0 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...
x(x^2-1)+2(x^2-1)=0
(x+2)(x^2-1)=0 now the second factor is a "difference of square" of the form:
(a^2-b^2) which always factors to (a+b)(a-b), in this case:
(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)=0
So g(x) has three real zero when x={-2, -1, 1}
Answer:
<em>l</em> = 1 5/16
w = 1/16
A = 21/16 x 1/16 = 21/256
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 11/4
<em>l</em> = length
w = <em>l</em> - 5/4
2<em>l</em> + 2(<em>l</em> - 5/4) = 11/4
2<em>l</em> + 2<em>l</em> - -5/2 = 1/4
multiply each side by 4
8<em>l</em> + 8<em>l </em>- 10 = 11<em> </em>
16<em>l</em> = 21
<em>l</em> = 21/16 or 1 5/16
width = 21/16 - 20/16 = 1/16
