Answer:

  (x +2)(x -4)(x -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide the cubic by (x +2), the factor that has -2 as a root, you get a quadratic with roots 4 and 5. Thus the factors are ...

  (x +2)(x -4)(x -5)

___

In the attachment, we have done the division using a graphing calculator. You can also do it by polynomial long division or by synthetic division. The resulting quadratic is ...

  x^2 -9x +20 = (x -4)(x -5) . . . . . factor the quadratic

which describes 1/8 is it a real number and rational number is it a real number and an irrational number and a natural number is
Aloiza [94]
Real numbers are all numbers found on the number line (positive, negative, fractions, square roots, whole numbers).

Rational numbers are fractions, or quotients, of two integers.

Irrational numbers are numbers with decimals that continue on (without repetition). They cannot be written as a fraction of two integers. Irrational number examples: √41, √97, √15

Natural numbers are whole, positive numbers.

Integers are whole, non-fraction numbers.


ANSWER: 1/8 is not a whole number, an integer or a natural number. It is a real and rational number (choice #1).

Hope this helps! :)

An environmental group conducted a study to determine whether crows in a certain region were ingesting food containing unhealthy
nydimaria [60]

Part A

Given info:

  • xbar = sample mean = 4.90 ppm
  • s = sample standard deviation = 1.12 ppm
  • n = 23 = sample size

Because n > 30 is not true, and we don't know the population standard deviation (sigma), this means we must use a T distribution.

The degrees of freedom here are n-1 = 23-1 = 22.

At 90% confidence and the degrees of freedom mentioned, the t critical value is roughly t = 1.717

Use a T distribution table or calculator to determine this. If you don't have a calculator for the task, then you can search out "inverse T calculator" and there are tons of free options to pick from.

The margin of error E is

E = t*s/sqrt(n)

E = 1.717*1.12/sqrt(23)

E = 0.400982

This is approximate and accurate to 6 decimal places.

The confidence interval is going to be xbar plus or minus that E value

L = lower bound = xbar - E = 4.90 - 0.400982 = 4.499018 = 4.50

U = upper bound = xbar + E = 4.90 + 0.400982 = 5.300982 = 5.30

The confidence interval in the format of (L, U) is (4.50, 5.30)

You could also express it as the format L < mu < U and it would be 4.50 < mu < 5.30; however, I'll stick to the first method.

<h3>Answer:  (4.50, 5.30)</h3>

=====================================================

Part B

Since we know sigma = 2.6 is the population standard deviation, we can use a Z distribution now.

At 90% confidence, the z critical value is roughly 1.645; use a table or calculator to determine this.

n = \left(\frac{z*\sigma}{E}\right)^2\\\\n \approx \left(\frac{1.645*2.6}{0.03}\right)^2\\\\n \approx 20325.254444 \\\\

Round this up to the nearest integer to get 20326. For min sample size problems, <u>always</u> round up.

<h3>Answer: 20326</h3>
