Total number of sheets are 12.

Total number of white sheets= 9

Total number of red sheets = 3

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes/ total number of outcomes.

Hence

When Calvin throws the sheets in the air, the probability that he gets a white sheet is

\frac{9}{12}

which equals to \frac{3}{4}

that becomes 0.75

Which polynomial function could be represented by the graph below?
Svetllana [295]

Note that

1.

f(x)=x^3+x^2-6x=x(x^2+x-6)=x(x-2)(x+3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

2.

f(x)=x^3-x^2-6x=x(x^2-x-6)=x(x+2)(x-3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

3.

f(x)=-2x^3-2x^2+12x=-2x(x^2+x-6)=-2x(x-2)(x+3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

4.

f(x)=-2x^3+x^2+12x=-2x(x^2-x-6)=-2x(x+2)(x-3)

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

From the diagram you can see that x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2 and the graph is   decreasing-increasing-decreasing.

Answer: correct choice is 3.

Find the average speed of a plane that leaves Bristol at 14.00 and lands in Rome at 17.15.The distance is 1200 miles
horrorfan [7]
It is very important to go through all the details that have been provided in the question. These information's will come in very handy while getting to the solution for the answer. Now let us concentrate on the problem in hand.
Distance between Bristol and Rome that the plane covers = 1200 miles
Starting time of the plane from Bristol = 14:00 hrs
Landing time of the plane in Rome = 17:15 hrs
Then
Total time taken by the plane to travel from Bristol to Rome = 17:15 - 14:00 hours
                                                                                               = 3 .15 hours
So
The average speed of the plane = 1200/3.15 miles per hour
                                                    = 380.95 miles per hour
From the above deduction we can conclude that the average speed of the plane traveling from Bristol to Rome is 380.95 miles per hour.
