Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x^2 - 16

Comparing this with the standard form

ax^2 + bx + c

ac = 9*-16 = -144

b = 0

-12 and 12 multiply to get ac and add to get b.

Factored form is

(3x - 4)(3x + 4).

Miriam reduced a square photo by cutting 3 inches away from the length and the width so it will fit in her photo album. The area
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

11 inches by 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the original photo were 11 inches by 11 inches.

We are informed that the area of the reduced photo is 64 square inches and that In the equation (x – 3)^2 = 64, x represents the side measure of the original photo.

In order to solve for x, we shall first take square roots on both sides of the equation;

The square root of (x – 3)^2 is simply (x - 3).

The square root of 64 is ±8 but we ignore -8 since the dimensions of any figure must be positive.

Therefore, we have the following equation;

x - 3 = 8

x = 8 + 3

x = 11

Which number in the monomial 215x18y3z21 needs to be changed to make it a perfect cube?
Murljashka [212]
Remember
xyz=(x)(y)(z)
if x and y and z are all perfect cubes, xyz is also a perfect cube

remmeber
(x^n)^m=x^(mn)
so if it is perfect cube it can be factored into
(x^n)^3, such taht n is a whole number
basiclaly, see if the expoent is divisble by 3

all of them should be perfect cubes

215x^18y^3z^21

split them up to see which ones need changing

215=5*43, not  a perfect cube
could be changed to 6^3, which is 216

x^18=(x^6)^3

y^3=y^3
z^21=(z^7)^3

the 215 needs to be changed

The time for a professor to grade a student's homework in statistics is normally distributed with a mean of 12.6 minutes and a s
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

37.23% probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 12.6, \sigma = 2.5

What is the probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 12 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8. So

X = 12

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{12 - 12.6}{2.5}

Z = -0.24

Z = -0.24 has a pvalue of 0.4052

X = 8

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{8 - 12.6}{2.5}

Z = -1.84

Z = -1.84 has a pvalue of 0.0329

0.4052 - 0.0329 = 0.3723

37.23% probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade

Which of the following accurately lists all of the discontinuities for the graph below?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

jump discontinuity at x = 0; point discontinuities at x = –2 and x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we can see that there is a whole in the graph at x=-2.

This is referred to as a point discontinuity.

Similarly, there is point discontinuity at x=8.

We can see that both one sided limits at these points are equal but the function is not defined at these points.

At x=0, there is a jump discontinuity. Both one-sided limits exist but are not equal.
