For the above equation and given zeros of polynomial equation we have;
y=(x+2)(x-3)(x+4)
y=(x^2+2x-3x-6)(x+4)
y=(x^2-x-6)(x+4)
y=(x^3-x^2-6x+4x^2-4x-24)
y=x^3+3x^2-10x-24
Therefore our answer is 3
Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask. Thank you.
Let x be the required waranty period, then
P(X < x) = P(z < (x - 12)/(8/12)) = 1 - 0.067 = 0.933
P(z < 12(x - 12)/8) = P(z < 1.498)
12(x - 12)/8 = 1.498
x - 12 = 8(1.498) / 12 = 0.9987
x = 12 - 0.9987 = 11
Therefore, they should waranty for 11 years so that no more than 6.7% fail within that time.
cost of production = %13
Let the price be p, then
revenue less price of failed iron = p - 0.067(13) = p - 0.871
Profit = p - 0.871 - 13 = 5
p - 13.871 = 5
p = 5 + 13.871 = 18.871
Therefore, the should charge $18.87 per waffle iron.
So
a be first term and d be common difference
- a+a+2d+a+4d+a+6d+a+9d=17
- 5a+21d=17--(1)
And
- a+d+a+3d+a+5d+a+7d+a+9d=15
- 5a+25d=15--(2)
Eq(1)-Eq(2)
Put in second one
- 5a+25d=15
- a+5d=3
- a+5/2=15
- a=15-5/2
- a=25/2
I believe that the answer is 300
