9514 1404 393
Answer:
g(x) = (x -3)(x -2+√7)(x -2 -√7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Synthetic division can tell us the quadratic factor that remains when the factor (x-3) is divided out.
g(x) = (x -3)(x^2 -4x -3)
The quadratic is not factorable over integers. Its vertex form is ...
(x -2)^2 -7
so its roots are x = 2±√7.
That means the linear factorization of g(x) is ...
g(x) = (x -3)(x -2-√7)(x -2+√7)
_____
I find it easy to learn the vertex form of the quadratic factor by using a graphing calculator to show the graph of the quadratic.

Answer:
11 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the median queing time from the cumulative frequency curve, we find
and trace it on the cumulative frequency curve.
From the graph, that total frequency is 100.
Half of this 50.
We trace the 50th item.
First locate 50 on the vertical axis and trace to the horizontal axis.
This corresponds to 11.
Note that each box is 0.5 units on the queing time axis.
