X method is the method to find the factors of the polynomial equation.The factor of the given polynomial is,

$x^2+16x-3x-48=(x+16)(x-3)$

Thus the option 3 is the correct option,

<h3>How to find factor of polynomial using X method?</h3>

X method is the method to find the factors of the polynomial equation.

The standard form of the quadratic equitation is given as,

$ax^2+bx+c$

Given information-

The equation given in the problem is,

$x^2+13x-48$

Compare the above equation with the standard form. We get,

$a=1\\b=13\\c=-48$

To find out the factor of above equation using X method, follow the steps.

Step 1) Multiply $a$ and $c$ and place $ac$ at the top of X as shown in the image.

$ac=1\times(-48)\\ac=-48$

Step 2) Place $b$ at the bottom as shown in the image below.

$b=13$

Step 3) Find two numbers that multiply the top number $ac$ and to the bottom number $b$ .

Step 4) Write the polynomial from the X box as,

$x^2+16x-3x-48=x(x+16)-3(x+16)$

$x^2+16x-3x-48=(x+16)(x-3)$

Hence the factor of the given polynomial is,

$x^2+16x-3x-48=(x+16)(x-3)$

Thus the option 3 is the correct option,

Medical scientists study the effect of acute infection on tissue-specific immunity. In a collection of experiments under the sam

Serjik [45]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions is (0.5291, 0.6429).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence interval $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

In a collection of experiments under the same conditions, 44 of 75 mice test positive for lymphadenopathy. This means that $n = 75$ and $\pi = \frac{44}{75} = 0.586$ .

Compute a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions.

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.586 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.586*0.414}{75}} = 0.5291$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.586 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.586*0.414}{75}} = 0.6429$

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions is (0.5291, 0.6429).

PLEASE ANSWER! Given the functions f(x) = x2 + 6x - 1, g(x) = -x2 + 2, and h(x) = 2x2 - 4x + 3, rank them from least to greatest

Ratling [72]

Answer:

<em>he rank from least to great based on their axis of symmetry: </em>

0, 1, -3 ⇒ g(x), h(x), f(x)

So, <em>option C</em> is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is given by:

$ax^2+bx+c =0$

Here, a, b and c are termed as coefficients and x being the variable.

<em>Axis of symmetry can be obtained using the formula</em>

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

Identification of a, b and c in f(x), g(x) and h(x) can be obtained as follows:

$f(x) = x^2 + 6x - 1$

⇒ a = 1, b = 6 and c = -1

$g(x) = -x^2 + 2$

⇒ a = -1, b = 0 and c = 2

$h(x) = 2^2 - 4x + 3$

⇒ a = 2, b = -4 and c = 3

So, axis of symmetry in $f(x) = x^2 + 6x - 1$ will be:

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

x = -6/2(1) = -3

and axis of symmetry in $g(x) = -x^2 + 2$ will be:

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

x = -(0)/2(-1) = 0

and axis of symmetry in $h(x) = 2^2 - 4x + 3$ will be:

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

x = -(-4)/2(2) = 1

<em>So, the rank from least to great based on their axis of symmetry: </em>

0, 1, -3 ⇒ g(x), h(x), f(x)

So, <em>option C</em> is correct.

What line is parallel to 2x+5y=6 that goes through (5,3)

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

4y = x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, in the equation given : 2x + 5y = 6 , make y the subject of the formula which will give y = $\frac{-2x}{5}$ + $\frac{6}{5}$ which make the gradient, m, the coefficient of x = $\frac{-2}{5}$ . Since the line we're looking for is parallel to the one we were given, their respective gradients would be the same. (If they were perpendicular, the gradient of the new line would be a negative inverse of the given line)

Then you proceed to use the one-point formula : y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where y₀ = 3 and x₀ = 5 from the point it goes through (5, 3)

y - 3 = $\frac{1}{4}$ (x - 5); y - 3 = $\frac{x}{4}$ - $\frac{5}{4}$ ; y = $\frac{x}{4}$ - $\frac{5}{4}$ +3

y = $\frac{x}{4}$ - $\frac{17}{4}$ ; y = $\frac{x-17}{4}$ ; 4y = x - 17
