The factors of x cube -10x square -53x-42

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em><u></u></em>x^3 - 10 x^2 -53x -42 = ( x + 1)(x + 3) (x - 14)<em><u></u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

 x^3 - 10x^2 -53x - 42

The factors of 42 : ±1 , ±2 , ±3 , ±6, ±7, ±14, ±21 , ±42

<u>Using trial and error method we will find the first root of the polynomial.</u>

1 : ( 1 )³ - 10 ( 1 )² - 53 ( 1 ) - 42

     1 - 10 - 53 - 42  ≠ 0

   Therefore 1 is not a root

-1 : ( -1 )³ - 10 (- 1 )² - 53 (- 1 ) - 42

      - 1 - 10 + 53 - 42

       53 - 53 = 0

Therefore - 1 is a root of the polynomial.

Therefore ( x + 1) is a factor.

<u>Now by long division or by using synthetic division we can find other factors.</u>

<u>Synthetic Division :</u>

                             -1 | 1      -10       -53      - 42

                                | 0     - 1          11          42

                                |______________________

                                  1      - 11       - 42        0

Therefore ,

x^3 - 10 x^2 -53x -42 = ( x + 1)(x^2 - 11x +42)  ------ ( 1 )

<u>Next further factorize x² - 11x - 42</u>

   x² - 11x - 42

= x² -  14x + 3x - 42

=x(x - 14) + 3 (x - 14)

=(x + 3 )(x - 14)

Therefore ,

x^3 - 10 x^2 -53x -42 = ( x + 1)(x + 3) (x - 14)

Rachel runs 4 miles in 23 minutes. How many miles does she run per minute?​
KIM [24]

Answer:

To calculate how many total miles Rachel runs per minute, setting up a unit rate, that is a rate with a denominator of 1, would be helpful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the current problem to determine a rate.

23 minutes/4 miles

Now, set up a unit rate.

1 minute/<em>x </em>miles = 23 minutes/4 miles

To solve for <em>x, </em>we can use simple division strategies. We divide 23 by 23 to receive 1 minute. Likewise, dividing the current milage by 23 would wield the correct unit rate. To do this, divide 4 by 23.

4/23 = 0.1739130434782609

Finally, simplify your answer to receive 0.17.

Therefore, Rachel runs ~0.17 miles per minute. (Note that this answer is only a rounded answer of her actual milage per minute)

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of 3.5 inches.

This means that \mu = 15.4, \sigma = 3.5

16 items are chosen at random

This means that n = 16, s = \frac{3.5}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.875

What is the probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 16.8. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{16.8 - 15.4}{0.875}

Z = 1.6

Z = 1.6 has a p-value of 0.9452.

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.
