Answer:

f(x) = 4x + 11x2 - 104x + 105  =  (x - 3)(x + 7)(4x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x^3 + 11x2 - 104x + 105

has the coefficients {4, 11 -104, 105}.  We perform synthetic division using the given -7 as divisor:

-7   /   4      11     -104     105

                -28     119     -105

     -----------------------------------

          4      -17      15         0

Since the remainder is zero (0), we have shown that -7 is a zero of f(x).  The coefficients of the quotient (above) are {4, -17, 15}.  Let's try factoring the corresponding polynomial again using synthetic division.  Start out by using 5 as divisor and determining whether or not the remaindeer is zero:

5    /     4     -17      15

                    20     15

     -------------------------

             4        3     30           No, the remainder is 30 and so 5 is not a

                                               root of this quadratic.  Try the divisor 3 instead:

3     /     4      -17      15

                      12      -15

      ---------------------------

             4       -5        0        Yes, the remainder is 0 and so 3 is a root.

Thus, the given f(x) = 4x + 11x2 - 104x + 105 factors as follows:

f(x) = 4x + 11x2 - 104x + 105  =  (x - 3)(x + 7)(4x - 5).  Notice that the coefficients of the last factor come from those we found above when using 3 as a divisor in synthetic division.

g A fair coin is tossed 20 times. The number of heads observed is the count X of successes. Give the distribution of X . Choose
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

We assume that we have a fair coin that is p(Head)=p(Tails)=0.5

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of heads observed in 20 times". The distribution for X is given by:

X \sim Binom(n=20, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A Bernoulli trial is "a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted". And this experiment is a particular case of the binomial experiment.

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

Solution to the problem

We assume that we have a fair coin that is p(Head)=p(Tails)=0.5

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of heads observed in 20 times". The distribution for X is given by:

X \sim Binom(n=20, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

Ivan and Tanya share £150 in the ration of 4:1
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Money Ivan gets   extra = 120 - 30 (or 3x) = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Ivan = 4x

Tanya = 1x

Total = 150

4x + x = 150

5x = 150 ;  x = 150 / 5 = 30

Ivan = 4x = 120

Tanya = 1x = 30

Money Ivan gets   extra = 120 - 30 (or 3x) = 90
