Answer:

x = 1± 3i

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-2x+10=0

We can complete the square to solve by subtracting 10 from each side

x^2-2x+10-10=-10

x^2 -2x = -10

We need to add (2/2) ^2 to each side or 1

x^2 -2x+1 = -10 +1

x^2 -2x+1 = -9

The left side factors into (x- (2/2) ) ^2

(x-1) ^2 = -9

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-1) ^2 =± sqrt(-9)

x-1 = ±sqrt(-1) sqrt(3)

Remember the sqrt(-1) = i

x-1 = ± 3i

Add 1 to each side

x-1+1 = 1± 3i

x = 1± 3i

Divide the polynomial x^3+x^2-2x+3 by (x-1)

Anni [7]

Answer:

x² + 2x + (3 / (x − 1))

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by setting up the division:

.........____________

x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3

Start with the first term, x³. Divided by x, that's x². So:

.........____x²______

x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3

Multiply x − 1 by x², subtract the result, and drop down the next term:

.........____x²______

x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3

.........-(x³ − x²)

...........----------

...................2x² − 2x

Repeat the process over again. First term is 2x². Divided by x is 2x. So:

.........____x² + 2x __

x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3

.........-(x³ − x²)

...........----------

...................2x² − 2x

Multiply, subtract the result, and drop down the next term:

.........____x² + 2x __

x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3

.........-(x³ − x²)

...........----------

...................2x² − 2x

.................-(2x² − 2x)

.................---------------

.....................................3

x doesn't divide into 3, so that's the remainder.

Therefore, the answer is:

x² + 2x + (3 / (x − 1))

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute y=0

0= -x^2

then swap the sides

-x^2=0 ,

change the signs

x^2=0

set the base equal to 0

In a certain year, when she was a high school senior, Idonna scored 671 on the mathematics part of the SAT. The distribution of

Answer:

Idonna's standardized score is 1.41.

Jonathan's standardized score is 0.55.

A.) Idonna's score is higher than Jonathan's

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Idonna scored 671 on the mathematics part of the SAT. The distribution of SAT math scores in that year was Normal with mean 509 and standard deviation 115.

This means that her standardized score is Z when $X = 671, \mu = 509, \sigma = 115$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{671 - 509}{115}$

$Z = 1.41$

Idonna's standardized score is 1.41.

Jonathan took the ACT and scored 24 on the mathematics portion. ACT math scores for the same year were Normally distributed with mean 21.1 and standard deviation 5.3 .

This means that his standardized score is Z when $X = 24, \mu = 21.1, \sigma = 5.3$
