Answer:
-10
-5
5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the answers given, you probably mean f(x) = x^3 + 10x2 – 25x – 250
The Remainder Theorem is going to take a bit to solve.
You have to try the factors of 250. One way to make your life a lot easier is to graph the equation. That will give you the roots.
The graph appears below. Since the y intercept is -250 the graph goes down quite a bit and if you show the y intercept then it will not be easy to see the roots.
However just to get the roots, the graph shows that
x = -10
x = - 5
x = 5
The last answer is the right one. To use the remainder theorem, you could show none of the answers will give 0s except the last one. For example, the second one will give
f((10) = 10^3 + 10*10^2 - 25*10 - 250
f(10) = 1000 + 1000 - 250 - 250
f(10) = 2000 - 500
f(10) = 1500 which is not 0.
==================
f(1) = (1)^3 + 10*(1)^2 - 25(1) - 250
f(1) = 1 + 10 - 25 - 250
f(1) = -264 which again is not zero
Answer:
The probability that at least 280 of these students are smokers is 0.9664.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number of students at a particular college who are smokers
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 500 and p = 0.60.
But the sample selected is too large and the probability of success is close to 0.50.
So a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied to approximate the distribution of X if the following conditions are satisfied:
1. np ≥ 10
2. n(1 - p) ≥ 10
Check the conditions as follows:
Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied.
So,
Compute the probability that at least 280 of these students are smokers as follows:
Apply continuity correction:
P (X ≥ 280) = P (X > 280 + 0.50)
= P (X > 280.50)
*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that at least 280 of these students are smokers is 0.9664.
