Actually, I think the question should be, "In what range(s) of x-values must there be a root of the POLYNOMIAL?" Unless you are working with some real strange maths, polynomials are smooth and continuous. If you drew a smooth and continuous line through the points in the graph, where would the line have to cross the x-axis?

There are 14 dogs in a particular class at a dog show. Blue, red, yellow, and white ribbons will be awarded to the first through

stira [4]

There are 14 possibilities for first place.
There are 13 possibilities for second place, since a dog can't get both first and second place.
There are 12 possibilities for third place, since a dog can't get both first, second, and third place.
There are 11 possibilities for fourth place, since a dog can't get both first, second, third, and fourth place.

Multiply them together and get 24024 possibilities.

Hope this helps!

Find the standard deviation of the following data. Answers are rounded to the nearest tenth. 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56

kogti [31]

Answer:

24.2(to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is ungrouped data type

standard deviation =√ [∑ (x-μ)² / n]

mean (μ)=∑x/n

= $\frac{5+5+6+12+13+26+37+49+51+56+56+84}{12}$

=33.3

x-μ for data 5, 5, 6, 12, 13, 26, 37, 49, 51, 56, 56, 84 will be

-28.3, -28.3, -27.3, -21.3, -7.3, 3.7, 15.7,17.7, 22.7,22.7,50.7

(x-μ)² will be 800.89, 800.89,745.29,453.69,53.29,13.69,246.49,313.29,515.29,515.29,2570.49

∑ (x-μ)² will be = 7028.59

standard deviation = √(7028.59 / 12)

=24.2

Here are the ingredients to make 12 cupcakes.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Mark needs 2 kg butter, 2 kg caster sugar, 14 eggs, and 1.5 kg flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, first you double the number of kids, as Mark wants each kid to have two cupcakes, not one. (Then add 80+80 to get 160)

Now add the adults to children: 160+152=312

now divide by 12 to see how many batches of cupcakes he needs to make.

312÷12=26 So he needs to make 26 batches

Now here are the ingredients needed to make 12 batches of cupcakes (I multiplied the amount of each ingredient by 26)

5200 g (5.2 kg) butter, 5200 g (5.2 kg) caster sugar, 104 eggs, and 6500 g (6.5 kg) flour.

now make the measurements the same as Mark's ingredients (or the other way around)

(to save time I am not showing each one, just the normal ingredients turned into kg and compared)

5 kg butter < 5.2 kg butter

5 kg caster sugar < 5.2 kg butter

90 eggs < 104 eggs

5 kg flour < 6.5 kg flour

Now do a little subtraction.....

5.2 kg-5 kg = 2 kg butter is needed....

5.2 kg - 5 kg = 2 kg caster sugar is needed....

104 - 90 = 14 eggs needed....

6.5 kg - 5 kg = 1.5 kg flour needed....

And there you go!!! Hope this helped!!! :D
