Since the problem doesn’t give a definite question, here are the possible questions and answer:

P(fewer than 4 tosses) 
= P(one toss) + P(two toss) + P(3 toss) 
= (3/4) + (3/4)(1/4) + (3/4)(1/4)^2 
= 0.984375 


Expected value 
= 1 / p 
= 1 / (3/4) 
= 4 / 3 

Variance 
= (1 - p) / p^2 
= (1 - (3/4)) / (3/4)^2 
= (1/4) / (9/16) 
= 4 / 9 

Standard deviation 
= sqrt(Variance) 
= sqrt(4 / 9) 
= 2 / 3

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute Change = final change in 2017 sales  - initial change in 2016 sales  =  $847,000,000 - $885,100,000 = 38,100,000

Relative Change = (Final - Initial change)/initial change x  100% = 38,100,000/885,100,00 x 100% = 381/8851 x 100% = 0.0430459835 x 100% = 4.30%

Can someone please help me workout this problem? If the quotient obtained by dividing 8x^4 - 2x^2 + 6x - 7 by 2x+1 is equal to 4
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is p = -2 q = -6  remainder = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Dividend = 8x⁴ - 2x² + 6x - 7

Divisor    = 2x + 1

Quotient = 4x³ + px² - qx + 3

Process

1.- Divide using long division

                                4x³ - 2x² + 3                          

                   2x + 1   8x⁴ + 0x³ - 2x² + 6x - 7

                             - 8x⁴ - 4x³

                                 0   - 4x³ - 2x²

                                      + 4x³ +2x²

                                          0       0   + 6x - 7

                                                          -6x - 3

                                                             0 - 10    Remainder

         px² = -2x²  then  p = -2

         -qx = 6x     then q = -6
