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).
Given that mean=56.1 and standard deviation=8.2, P(x>67.5) will be found as follows:
The z-score is given by:
z=(x-μ)/σ
thus the z-score will be given by:
z=(67.5-56.1)/8.2
z=11.4/8.2
z=1.39
thus
P(z=1.39)=0.9177
thus:
P(x>67.5)=1-P(z>0.9177)
=1-0.9177
=0.0823
Answer: A. 0.0823
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Total cost = (7 items * Cost per item) + Shipping fee = 7*6.5 + 8.5 = $54
(b)
Modelling the above equation with symbols:
c = s*6.5 + 8.5 = 6.5s + 8.5
(c)
For a total cost of 80$, c = 80:
80 = 6.5s + 8.5
Calculating, we get:
s = 11 items
Rachel ordered a total of 11 items
