Find all solutions to x³+3x² − 9x − 27 = 0 by factoring the equation.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The solutions are x=-3,\:x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this cubic polynomial x^3+3x^2-9x-27 you must:

  • Group the polynomial into two sections

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x^3+3x^2\right)+\left(-9x-27\right)

  • Factor out -9 from (-9x-27)

(-9x-27)=-9\left(x+3\right)

  • Factor out x^2 from (x^3+3x^2)

(x^3+3x^2)=x^2\left(x+3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=-9\left(x+3\right)+x^2\left(x+3\right)

  • Factor out common term x+3

-9\left(x+3\right)+x^2\left(x+3\right)=\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-9\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x+3\right)\left(x^2-9\right)

  • Factor x^2-9

x^2-9=\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27= \left(x+3\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)

x^3+3x^2-9x-27=\left(x+3\right)^2\left(x-3\right)=0

  • Using the Zero Factor Theorem: = 0 if and only if = 0 or = 0

x+3=0, \quad{x=-3}\\x-3=0, \quad{x=3}

The solutions are

x=-3,\:x=3

Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

(a) The probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm is 0.119.

(b) The probability that the thickness is more than 7.0 mm is 0.119.

(c) The probability that the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm is 0.762.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 5.0 millimeters (mm) and a standard deviation of 1.7 mm.

Let X = <u><em>thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village.</em></u>

So, X ~ Normal(\mu=5.0,\sigma^{2} =1.7^{2})

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                           Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean thickness = 5.0 mm

           \sigma = standard deviation = 1.7 mm

(a) The probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm is given by = P(X < 3.0 mm)

    P(X < 3.0 mm) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{3.0-5.0}{1.7} ) = P(Z < -1.18) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.18)

                                                           = 1 - 0.8810 = <u>0.119</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.18 in the z table which has an area of 0.881.

(b) The probability that the thickness is more than 7.0 mm is given by = P(X > 7.0 mm)

    P(X > 7.0 mm) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{7.0-5.0}{1.7} ) = P(Z > 1.18) = 1 - P(Z \leq 1.18)

                                                           = 1 - 0.8810 = <u>0.119</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.18 in the z table which has an area of 0.881.

(c) The probability that the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm is given by = P(3.0 mm < X < 7.0 mm) = P(X < 7.0 mm) - P(X \leq 3.0 mm)

    P(X < 7.0 mm) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{7.0-5.0}{1.7} ) = P(Z < 1.18) = 0.881

    P(X \leq 3.0 mm) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{3.0-5.0}{1.7} ) = P(Z \leq -1.18) = 1 - P(Z < 1.18)

                                                           = 1 - 0.8810 = 0.119

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.18 in the z table which has an area of 0.881.

Therefore, P(3.0 mm < X < 7.0 mm) = 0.881 - 0.119 = 0.762.

4х = 32<br> А. x= 9<br> В. x= 8<br> с. x= 28<br> D. х = 128
STatiana [176]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 32/4

4x/4 leaves you with x by itself, and 32/4 is 8. So x = 8
