For this case what we must do is find a quadratic function that is already factored.
 This is because in the factored quadratic equations, it is easier to observe the zeros of the function.
 In this case, the zeros of the function represent the time at which the company did not make any profit.
 We have the following equation:
 p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
 We observed that there was no gain in:
 t = 3
 t = 5
 The other roots are discarded because they are negative
 Answer:
 a.p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Part 1) The explanatory variable is the type of oven
It is a categorical variable
Part 2) The response variable is the baking time
It is a quantitative variable
part 3) two-sample z-test for proportions should be used for the test
Step-by-step explanation:
An explanatory variable is an independent variable that is not affected by all other variables. In this experiment, the type of oven is the input variable and it  is not affected by any other variable
A categorical variable is one that has two or more categories without any intrinsic ordering of the categories. The type of oven is either gas or electric, so it is categorical.
A response variable is a dependent variable whose variation depends on other variables. The baking time in this experiment depends on the type of oven used
A quantitative variable is one that take on numerical values.
A two proportion z-test allows you to compare two proportions to see if they are the same. The null hypothesis (H0) for the test is that the proportions are the same. The alternate hypothesis (H1) is that the proportions are not the same.

Answer:
$4,499.46
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the compound interest formula for this problem:

P = initial balance
r = interest rate (decimal)
n = number of times compounded annually
t = time
First, lets change 4% into a decimal:
4% ->  -> 0.04
 -> 0.04
Now lets plug the values into the equation as shown below:


Don will have $4,499.46 at the end of the three years.
