$\sf\implies \: - 15 - ( - 4) + 17$

$\sf \implies \: - 15 + 4 + 17$

$\sf \implies \: - 15 + 21$

$\boxed{ \tt \: ans \dashrightarrow 6}$

<h3>Remember these laws of integers:</h3>

(+)(-)=(-)
(-)(+)=(-)
(-)(-)=(+)
(+)(+)=(+)

F(x) = 4x^2+2x+6 what is the discriminant of f? How many distinct real number zeros does f have?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The discriminant of f is 92, and it has no real zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic is $b^2-4ac$ , where the quadratic is in the form $ax^2+bx+c$ . The discriminant of this one is therefore:

$2^2-4(4)(6)=4-96=-92$

Since the square root of a negative number is imaginary, this quadratic has no real number zeros. Hope this helps!

A batch of snack mix made of dried fruit and nuts contain 744G of nuts the ratio of nuts to dried fruit by weight is 12 to 13 ho

Bezzdna [24]

In a bag of snack mix:

n = nuts d = dried fruit

n = 744g d = ???g

Ratio Nuts/Dried fruit = 12/13

This basically means that if the mix was divided in 25 parts, 12 parts would be nuts and 13 would be dried fruits

If 744 is 12 parts then 744/12 is 1 part

744/12 = 62

1 part = 62g

there are 13 parts of dried fruit

13 x 62 = 806

744g of nuts + 806g of dreid fruit = 1550g

Answer: A batch of snack mix weigh 1550g, or 1.55kg

hope it helps :)

The physical plant at the main campus of a large state university receives daily requests to replace fluorescent light bulbs. Th

ankoles [38]

We have been given that the distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped and has a mean of 38 and a standard deviation of 6. We are asked to find the approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 38 and 56.

First of all, we will find z-score corresponding to 38 and 56.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$z=\frac{38-38}{6}=\frac{0}{6}=0$

Now we will find z-score corresponding to 56.

$z=\frac{56-38}{6}=\frac{18}{6}=3$

We know that according to Empirical rule approximately 68% data lies with-in standard deviation of mean, approximately 95% data lies within 2 standard deviation of mean and approximately 99.7% data lies within 3 standard deviation of mean that is $-3\sigma\text{ to }3\sigma$ .

We can see that data point 38 is at mean as it's z-score is 0 and z-score of 56 is 3. This means that 56 is 3 standard deviation above mean.

We know that mean is at center of normal distribution curve. So to find percentage of data points 3 SD above mean, we will divide 99.7% by 2.

$\frac{99.7\%}{2}=49.85\%$

Therefore, approximately $49.85\%$ of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 38 and 56.
