Jack Lawler, a financial analyst, wants to prepare an article on the Shadow Stock portfolio developed by the American Associatio

n of Individual Investors (AAII). A list of the 30 companies in the Shadow Stock portfolio as of March is contained in the Excel Online file below. Use the spreadsheet to answer the following questions.
Jack would like to select a simple random sample of 5 of these companies for an interview concerning management practices.

a. The Shadow Stock companies are listed in column A of the Excel worksheet provided above. In column B we have generated a random number for each of the companies. Use these random numbers to select a simple random sample of 5 of these companies for Jack by finding the smallest random number, the second smallest random number, etc. in column B using an Excel function.

The random numbers corresponding to the first 5 companies selected are (to 5 decimal places):

First company (smallest random number) ____

Second company (2nd smallest random number) ____

Third company (3rd smallest random number) _____

Fourth company (4th smallest random number) _____

Fifth company (5th smallest random number)______

Factor of x^3-x^2-24x-36
Basile [38]
The trial and error method is used to find an initial factor:
If we let f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 and all we have to do is sub' in values of x until
f(x) = 0, we can use this to find an initial factor by the factor theorem:
f(1) = (1)³ - (1)² - 24(1) - 36 = -60
f(2) = (2)³ - (2)² - 24(2) - 36 = -80
f(5) = (5)³ - (5)² - 24(5) - 36 = -56
*** f(6) = (6)³ - (6)² - 24(6) - 36 = 0 ***

f(6) = 0 so (x - 6) is a factor of f(x).
This means that: f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 = (x - 6)(ax² + bx + c).
To find a,b and c, use long division (or inspection) to divide x³ - x² - 24x - 36 by x - 6.
The other 2 factors of f(x) can then be found by factorizing the
ax² + bx + c quadratic the way you would with any other quadratic (i.e. by quadratic formula, CTS or inspection).

If BE = 2x + 2, BD = 5x – 3, and AE = 4x – 6, what are the values of x and AC?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: x=7 and AC = 44 unuts.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. (i)

Here in parallelogram ABCD , AC and Bd are diagonals intersecting at E.

BE = 2x + 2, BD = 5x – 3, and AE = 4x – 6

Using (i)

BE=\dfrac{BD}{2}\\\\2x+2=\dfrac{5x-3}{2}\\\\ 2(2x+2)=5x-3\\\\ 4x+4= 5x-3\\\\ 5x-4x=4+3\\\\ x= 7

Now , AE = 4(7)-6 = 28-6 = 22

AC =2 AE = 2 (22) =44 units.

Hence, x=7 and AC = 44 unuts.
