Answer: 96%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 total cyclists and 24 of those finished the race in less than 51 minutes. The question would like this 24 to be expressed as a percentage of 25.

In percentage this would be:

= Number of cyclists who finished in 51 minutes / Total number of cyclists * 100%

= 24 / 25 * 100%

= 96%

Bob discovers a box with 30 identical, used, rechargeable batteries in his attic.

Answer:

a) All of them are out of charge = 9.31x10⁻¹⁰

b) 20% of them are out of charge = 5.529x10⁻⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be modeled as a binomial distribution since

There are n repeated trials and all of them are independent of each other.

There are only two possibilities: battery is out of charge and battery is not out of charge.

The probability of success does not change with trial to trial.

Since it is given that it is equally likely for the battery to be out of charge or not out of charge so probability of success is 50% or 0.50

P = 0.50

1 - P = 0.50

a) All of them are out of charge?

Probability = nCx * P^x * (1 - P)^n-x

Probability = ₃₀C₃₀(0.50)³⁰(0.50)⁰

Probability = 9.31x10⁻¹⁰

b) 20% of them are out of charge?

0.20*30 = 6 batteries are out of charge

Probability =₃₀C₆(0.50)²⁴(0.50)⁶

Probability = 5.529x10⁻⁴

Find a factorization of x² + 2x³ + 7x² - 6x + 44, given that<br> −2+i√√7 and 1 - i√/3 are roots.
Levart [38]

A factorization of x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is (x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4).

<h3>What are the properties of roots of a polynomial?</h3>
  • The maximum number of roots of a polynomial of degree n is n.
  • For a polynomial with real coefficients, the roots can be real or complex.
  • The complex roots of a polynomial with real coefficients always exist in a pair of conjugate numbers i.e., if a+ib is a root, then a-ib is also a root.

If the roots of the polynomial p(x)=ax^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e are r_1,r_2,r_3,r_4, then it can be factorized as p(x)=(x-r_1)(x-r_2)(x-r_3)(x-r_4).

Here, we are to find a factorization of p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44. Also, given that -2+i\sqrt{7} and 1-i\sqrt{3} are roots of the polynomial.

Since p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is a polynomial with real coefficients, so each complex root exists in a pair of conjugates.

Hence, -2-i\sqrt{7} and 1+i\sqrt{3} are also roots of the given polynomial.

Thus, all the four roots of the polynomial p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44, are: r_1=-2+i\sqrt{7}, r_2=-2-i\sqrt{7}, r_3=1-i\sqrt{3}, r_4=1+i\sqrt{3}.

So, the polynomial p(x)=x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 can be factorized as follows:

\{x-(-2+i\sqrt{7})\}\{x-(-2-i\sqrt{7})\}\{x-(1-i\sqrt{3})\}\{x-(1+i\sqrt{3})\}\\=(x+2-i\sqrt{7})(x+2+i\sqrt{7})(x-1+i\sqrt{3})(x-1-i\sqrt{3})\\=\{(x+2)^2+7\}\{(x-1)^2+3\}\hspace{1cm} [\because (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2]\\=(x^2+4x+4+7)(x^2-2x+1+3)\\=(x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4)

Therefore, a factorization of x^4+2x^3+7x^2-6x+44 is (x^2+4x+11)(x^2-2x+4).
