Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, and the variance is found by using the mean. So we will do that first. I will use the population variance as opposed to the sample variance since our set of numbers is small.
The mean: 8 + 12 + 15 + 17 + 18 = 70 and divide that by 5 to get
and use this to find the variance in the formula:
it is a bit difficult to enter that formula in correctly, but here's how it works mathematically:
Squaring this ensures us that we don't end up with zero, which would be useless.
so
which means that the standard deviation is
s = 3.633
(If you do it with n-1 = 4 in the denominator of the variance, you get a standard deviation of 4.062)

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the polynomial : p(x)=1−2x2−3x3+4x
Rearranging : p(x) = -3x³ - 2x² + 4x + 1
Looking at the polynomial Given, we can see that it is a univariate polynomial, that is it has only one variable which is x. Thus for polynomials of this sort, the order of the polynomial is the highest exponent occurring in the polynomial equation. Therefore, the order of the polynomial above is 3, because the highest power of the function is 3.
This means that those with 4 as their highest exponent are of order 4 and those with highest exponent as 2 are of order 2.
Remember distributive property, but reverse it
ab-ac=a(b-c)
a is a common factor
find common factors
factor each
9x^2=3*3*x*x
6xy=2*3*x*y
common factor is 3*x or 3x
9x^2-6xy=3x(3x)-3x(2y)=3x(3x-2y)
factored form is 3x(3x-2y)
