I'm assuming there is a typo in the question, and the expression is actually "6x+40". That expression factored is 2(3x+20).

Students were asked to write 6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7 in standard form
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The standard form is 7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7

To Find :

standard form of 6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7

Solution:

A polynomial is in standard form when its term of highest degree is first, its term of 2nd highest is 2nd etc.

In order to write any polynomial in standard form, you look at the degree of each term. You then write each term in order of degree, from highest to lowest, left to write.

Now lets check the degree of each term in the polynomial

The degree of 6x is 5

The degree of 8x is 1

The degree of 3x is 3

 The degree of 7x is 7

Now rewrite  the polynomial in the order of the degree, from highest to lowest

7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x

Weight of a rock: In a geology course, students are learning to use a balance scale to accurately weigh rocks. One student plans
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The student who weighted the rock 5 times has a 95% confidence interval of (25.2, 29.1) which is guaranteed to be more wider (less precise) than the other student who weighted the rock 20 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Confidence Interval?

The confidence interval represents an interval that we can guarantee that the target variable will be within this interval for a given confidence level.  

The confidence interval is given by

CI = \bar{x} + t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\

Where \bar{x} is the mean weight \sigma is the standard deviation t_{\alpha/2} is the critical value from t-table and n is the sample size.

The term t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) is known as margin of error.

As the sample size is decreased the corresponding margin of error increases which results in wider confidence interval which means smaller precision.

The student who weighted the rock 5 times has a 95% confidence interval of (25.2, 29.1) which is guaranteed to be more wider (less precise) than the other student who weighted the rock 20 times.

We can say with 95% confidence that the true mean weight of the rock is within the interval of (25.2, 29.1).

A taxi charges a flat rate of $3.00, plus an additional $0.50 per mile. Carl will only take the taxi home if the cost is under $
Ahat [919]

Answer: Take the bus to save money

Step-by-step explanation:

you plug x for 15, the inequality would be ($0.50 * 15) + $3 <  $10. We need a less than sign (<) because Carl says the price has to be under and not equal to.

$7.5 + $3 < $10. After you do simple math and add, you will know that Carl is short of money by 50 cents.

Hope this helps :)
