Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Correct steps to find the value of 'a' should be,
Braulio's synthetic division should be,
-1 | 1 5 a -3 11
<u> -1 -4 (4 - a) (a - 1) </u>
1 4 (a - 4) (1 - a) (a + 10)
Here remainder is (a + 10).
So (a + 10) = 17 ⇒ a = 7
Braulio Incorrectly found a value of 'a' because he should have used (-1) instead of 1.
Zahra's calculation by remainder theorem should be,
p(x) = x⁴ + 5x³ + ax² - 3x + 11
p(-1) = (-1)⁴ + 5(-1)³ + a(-1)² - 3(-1) + 11
= 1 - 5 + a + 3 + 11
= (a + 10)
Since, remainder of the solution is 17,
(a + 10) = 17 ⇒ a = 7
Zahra incorrectly found the value of 'a' because she incorrectly solved the powers to (-1).
Anything to the power of 0 is one.
Therefore we have:
(1)(y^-7z)
Which simplifies to:
y^-7z
Answer:
He estimated there were about $10.40 worth of groceries
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to round the prices up to the nearest tenth and then add them all.
3.50
3.50
1.15
1.15
1.15
___
10.45
So 10.45 is closest to 10.40 and you have to remeber that this is just an estimate so it will be less because we rounded the answer up.
Hope this helps
Answer:
z = -1.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-statistic:

In which X is the found proportion.
p is the mean proportion.
is the standard error for the data.
Out of 593 students who replied to her survey, 64 fit this criterion.
This means that 
She finds that the proportion of binge drinkers nationally is 13.1%.
This means that 
Also

The z statistic for this data is
