mihalych1998 [28]3 years ago

Answer:

The factors are (x- \frac {\bf 1} {\bf 2}){\bf (x+4)}{\bf (x+1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that \frac{1}{2} ,-4, -1 are the zeroes of the polynomial

Let the polynomial be P(x)

For the polynomial P(x), If r is a zero of P(x) then (x-r) will be a factor of P(x).

If (x-r) is a factor of P(x) then r will be a zero of P(x).

From the given Zeroes we can write it in  form of factors as below:

P(x) = (x- \frac{1}{2})(x-(-4))(x-(-1))

P(x) = (x- \frac{1}{2})(x+4)(x+1)

Answer:

  1, 4, 3, 6, 2, 7, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle operator in f\circ g means that the function named on the left (f) operates on the result of the function named on the right (g). So, the notation

  (f\circ g)(x)

means

  f(g(x))

That is, g(x) is computed and used as input to the function f. When the function definitions are as shown, the evaluation proceeds in these steps.

  (f\circ g)(-4)\\\\=f(g(-4))\quad\text{write as function of a function}\\\\=f(-2(-4)^2)\quad\text{put -4 for x in $g(x)$}\\\\=f(-2(16))\quad\text{evaluate $(-4)^2$}\\\\=f(-32)\quad\text{evaluate $g(-4)$}\\\\=2(-32-1)\quad\text{put -32 for x in $f(x)$}\\\\=2(-33)\quad\text{first step evaluating $f(-32)$}\\\\=-66\quad\text{value of $(f\circ g)(-4)$}

If your step choices at the bottom are numbered 1 to 7 left-to right, then the sequence is as shown in the Answer section above.

Suppose that circles R and S have a central angle measuring 80°. Additionally, the measure of the sector for circle R is
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The correct answer is B) 9 m.

The measure of the sector of circle R is 32π/9 m.  The measure of the central angle is 80°.  This means that the sector is 80/360 = 2/9 of the circle.  The area of a circle is given by A=πr², so the area of the sector is A=2/9πr².  To verify this, 2/9π(4²) = 2/9π(16) = 32π/9.

Using this same formula for circle S, we will work backward to find the radius:

18π = 2/9πr²

Multiply both sides by 9:
18*9π = 2πr²
162π = 2πr²

Divide both sides by 2π:
162π/2π = 2πr²/2π
81 = r²

Take the square root of both sides:
√81 = √r² 
9 = r

To find relative frequency of no voters; 

p(A)=favourable outcomes/total outcomes 

p(A)=100/400 

= 1/4 or 0.25 

Therefore, the probability a person will respond with a no is 0.25.

Hope I helped :)
