Answer:

12 trades

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call 'x' the number of trades they will do.

After each trade, the number of cards Ian has increase by 1 (he gives 1 but receives 2), and the number of cards Jason has decrease by 1 (he receives 1 but gives 2), so after x trades, the number of cards Ian has is 20 + x, and Jason has 44 - x.

To find the number of trades when they will have the same amount of cards, we have that:

20 + x = 44 - x

2x = 24

x = 12 trades

Select all polynomials that are divisible by (x-1)(x−1)left parenthesis, x, minus, 1, right parenthesis. Choose all answers that
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to be able to determine the polynomials that are divisible by (x-1), this means that x-1 must be a factor for the functon to be able to divide any of the polynimial.

Since x-1 is a factor, we can get the value of x

x-1 = 0

x =0+1

x = 1

Next is for to substitute x - 1 into the polynomial and see the ones that will give us zero

For A(x)=3x^3+2x^2-x

A(1) = 3(1)^3+2(1)^2-(1)

A(1) = 3+2-(1)

A(1) = 5-1

A(1) = 4

Since A(1) ≠ 0, then x-1 is not divisible by the polynomial function.

<u>For B(x)=5x^3-4x^2-x</u>

B(1)=5(1)^3-4(1)^2-1

B(1)=5-4-1

B(1)=1-1 = 0

Since B(1) = 0, hence x-1 is divisible by 5x^3-4x^2-x

For the polynomial  C(x)= 2x^3-3x^2+2x-1

C(1)=2(1)^3-3(1)^2+2(1)-1

C(1)=2-3+2-1

C(1)= -1+1

C(1)= 0

Since C(1) = 0, hence x-1 is divisible by<u> the </u>

<u />

<u>F</u>or the polynomial D(x)=x^3+2x^2+3x+2

D(1)=1^3+2(1)^2+3(1)+2

D(1)=1+2+3+2

D(x) = 8

Hence the polynomial D(x) is not divisible by x-1

Hence the correct options are B(x)=5x^3-4x^2-x and 2x^3-3x^2+2x-1

Ms. Hamby gave a quiz. Two students’ work and the answer key are shown. Ms. Hamby accepts equivalent answers in any form.
Luden [163]

Answer:

Student A and Student B both answered 2 questions correctly.

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: that answers in the form:

\frac{a}{-b}=\frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}

ARE ALL EQUIVALENT.

First of all, 4/5 is equivalent to 0.8 if we do long division.

and 19/20 is 0.95 if we do long division.

Now, <u>Student A:</u>

Both of the fractions are correct and the negative sign is equivalent and makes the answer correct, so both are correct.

For <u>Student B:</u>

Similarly, both answers are correct for this student as well, looking at the equivalence we showed first.

Also, "-" (negative) in front of the parenthesis and inside parenthesis here doesn't matter.

Hence,

Student A and Student B both answered 2 questions correctly.

In high-school 135 freshmen were interviewed.
timama [110]

Answer:

a) n(none) = 25

b) n(PE but not Bio) = 25

c) n(ENG but not both BIO and PE) = 55

d) n(students that did not take Eng or Bio) = 40

e) P( Students did not take exactly two subjects) = 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Venn diagram drawn:

a) Number of students that took none

n(Freshmen) = 135

n(all three) = 5

n (PE and Bio) = 10

n(PE and Eng) = 15

n(Bio and Eng) = 7

n (PE and Bio only) = 10 - 5 = 5

n(PE and Eng only) = 15 - 5 = 10

n(Bio and Eng only) = 7 - 5 = 2

n(PE only) = 35 - 5 - 5 - 10 = 15

n(Bio only) = 42 - 5 - 5 - 2 = 30

n(Eng only) = 60 - 10 - 5 -2 = 43

n(Freshmen) = n(PE only) + n(Bio only) + n(Eng only) + n(PE and Bio only) + n(PE and Eng only) + n(Bio and Eng only) + n(all three) + n(none)

135 = 15 + 30 + 43 + 5 + 10 + 2 + 5 + n(none)

135 = 110 + n(none)

n(none) = 135 - 110

n(none) = 25

b)Number of students that too PE but not Bio

n(PE but not bio)= n(PE only) + n(PE and Eng only)

n(PE but not Bio) = 15 + 10

n(PE but not Bio) = 25

c) Number of students that took ENG but not both BIO and PE

n(ENG but not both BIO and PE) = n(Eng only) + n(Eng and Bio only) + n(Eng and PE only) = 43 + 2 + 10

n(ENG but not both BIO and PE) = 55

d) Number of students that did not take ENG or BIO

n( students that did not take Eng or Bio) = n(PE only) + n(none)

n(students that did not take Eng or Bio) = 15 + 25

n(students that did not take Eng or Bio) = 40

e) Probability that a randomly-chosen student from this group did not take exactly two subjects

n( Students that did not take exactly two subjects) = n(PE only) + n(Bio only) + n(Eng only)

n( Students that did not take exactly two subjects) = 15 + 30 + 43

n( Students that did not take exactly two subjects) = 88

P( Students did not take exactly two subjects) = 88/135

P( Students did not take exactly two subjects) = 0.65
