Answer: He had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Ok, so we need to see how many times 9 will divide into 18.

18/9=2.

Step 2. So now that we know that 9 goes into 18 two times and we know he has two fumbles for every 9 touchdowns we can multiply 2 by 2 to find out how man fumbles he had.

2*2=4

Step 3. Now to find out how many more touchdowns than fumbles he had we need to subtract his fumbles from his touchdowns.

18-4= 14. So, now we know he had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.

Hope this helps!

Find all the zeroes of the polynomial function f(x)=x^3-5x^2+6x-30 using synthetic division.

WITCHER [35]

Write the coeeficientes of the polynomial in order:

| 1 - 5 6 - 30

------------------------

After some trials you probe with 5

 | 1 - 5 6 - 30

5 | 5 0 30
-----------------------------
 1 0 6 0 <---- residue

Given that the residue is 0, 5 is a root.

The quotient is x^2 + 6 = 0, which does not have a real root.

Therefore, 5 is the only root. You can prove it by solving the polynomial x^2 + 6 = 0.

What is the y intercept, and what does it represent?

motikmotik

In the linear equation y = mx + b, y-intercept represents the value of y. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis(vertical axis)

Finding the y-intercept is done by looking at which point in the graph crosses the y-axis. This point will always have an x-coordinate of zero(0).

Suppose your statistics professor reports test grades as z-scores, and you got a score of 2.49 on an exam. (a) Write a sentenc

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

a) A z-score of 2.49 means that your grade was 2.49 standard deviations above the mean of all grades.

b) 1.39% of the class scored lower than your friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

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.

You got a score of 2.49 on an exam.

(a) Write a sentence explaining what that means

A z-score of 2.49 means that your grade was 2.49 standard deviations above the mean of all grades.

(b) Your friend got a z-score of negative 2−2. If the grades satisfy the Nearly Normal Condition, about what percent of the class scored lower than your friend? 

This percentage is the pvalue of $Z = -2.2$
