mu = 1100 = population mean
sigma = 275 = population standard deviation
x = 1400 = raw score
z = z score
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (1400-1100)/(275)
z = 300/275
z = 1.0909090909091 approximately
z = 1.09
Convention is to round to two decimal places so that you can use a Z table to look up the area under the curve (which helps determine probability).
The positive z score is due to Paula's raw score being above the mean.
Answer: Option D. 1,778
Solution:
Standard brick:
Width: w=3.625 in
Height: h=2.25 in
Length: l=7.625 in
Volumen of one standard brick: v
v=w*h*l
v=(3.625 in)*(2.25 in)*(7.625 in)
v=62.19140625 in^3
Pallet of bricks:
Side: s=4 feet
s=(4 feet)*(12 in / 1 feet)→s=48 in
Volume of a pallet of bricks: V=s^3
V=(48 in)^3
V=110,592 in^3
Number of bricks could be in a pallet: n
n=V/v
n=(110,592 in^3) / (62.19140625 in^3)
n=1,778.252119
n=1,778
Answer:
+1 is the potential root of the function.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
p(x) = x⁴ + 22x⁴ – 16x - 12
A potential root of the function is zero of the function. That is a potential root will reduce the function to zero or close to zero.
To determine this, we test each of the root given;
p(6) = (6)⁴ + 22(6)⁴ - 16(6) - 12 = 29700
p(3) = (3)⁴ + 22(3)⁴ - 16(3) - 12 = 1803
p(1) = (1)⁴ + 22(1)⁴ - 16(1) - 12 = -5
p(8) = (8)⁴ + 22(8)⁴ - 16(8) - 12 = 94068
The only number that reduces the function close to zero is +1, then +1 is the potential root of the function.
Quadratic functions are second-order equations of the form y=ax^2+bx+c. Their graphs form parabolas. The defining characteristic of a quadratic is that the acceleration of the outputs is a constant.
