Answer:

f(x)=2(x-2)^{3}(x+2)^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

2 is a zero of multiplicity 3 of the polynomial

so

we have that

x=2  is a solution of the polynomial

A factor of the polynomial is

(x-2)^{3} ----> is elevated to the cube because is a multiplicity 3

and the other solution is x=-2

since the polynomial  is fifth degree, x=-2 must have a multiplicity 2

so

the other factor of the polynomial is  

(x+2)^{2} ----> is squared because is a multiplicity 2

therefore

The polynomial is equal to multiply the factors by the leading coefficient

so

f(x)=2(x-2)^{3}(x+2)^{2}

Which equation represents the graphed function?
Alika [10]

Answer:

y = -1/3x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (2-3)/(3-0)

   -1/3

Then we know the y intercept( where it crosses the y axis)

It crosses at y=3

The slope intercept form is

y= mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/3x +3

Answer:

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

No. As the 95% CI include both negative and positive values, no proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference between them.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a confidence interval for the difference of proportions.

The difference in the sample proportions is:

p_1-p_2=x_1/n_1-x_2/n_2=(183/217)-(322/398)=0.843-0.809\\\\p_1-p_2=0.034

The estimated standard error is:

\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{0.843*0.157}{217}+\frac{0.809*0.191}{398} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{0.000609912+0.000388239}=\sqrt{0.000998151} \\\\ \sigma_{p_1-p_2}=0.0316

The z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

Then, the lower and upper bounds are:

LL=(p_1-p_2)-z*\sigma_p=0.034-1.96*0.0316=0.034-0.062=-0.028\\\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z*\sigma_p=0.034+1.96*0.0316=0.034+0.062=0.096

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

<em>Can it be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group?</em>

No. It can not be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group, as the confidence interval include both positive and negative values.

This means that we are not confident that the actual difference of proportions is positive or negative. No proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference.

RANDOMLY CHOOSING TWO POTENTIAL CLIENTS
gregori [183]
Let <span>Jacob, Carol, Geraldo, Meg, Earvin, Dora, Adam, and Sally be represented by the letters J, C, G, M, E, D, A, and S respectively. </span>

<span>In part IV we are asked:

</span><span>What is the sample space of the pairs of potential clients that could be chosen?
</span><span>
Since the Sample Space is the set of all possible outcomes, we need to make a set (a list) of all the possible pairs, which are as follows:

{(J, C), (J, G), (J, M), (J, E), (J, D), (J, A), (J, S)

          , </span>(C, G), (C, M), (C, E), (C, D), (C, A), (C, S)
<span>                   
</span>                      , (G, M), (G, E), (G, D), (G, A), (G, S)
<span>             
                                    ,</span>(M, E), (M, D), (M, A), (M, S)    
<span> 
                                               , </span>(E, D),  (E, A),  (E, S) <span>   
                                                          
                                                           , </span>(D, A), (D, S)
              
                                                                       , (A, S).}

We can check that the number of the elements of the sample space, n(S) is 

1+2+3+4+5+6+7=28.


This gives us the answer to the first question: <span>How many pairs of potential clients can be randomly chosen from the pool of eight candidates? 

(Answer: 28.)


II) </span><span>What is the probability of any particular pair being chosen?
</span>
The probability of a particular pair to be picked is 1/28, as there is only one way of choosing a particular pair, out of 28 possible pairs.

III) <span>What is the probability that the pair chosen is Jacob and Meg or Geraldo and Sally? 

The probability of choosing (J, M) or (G, S) is 2 out of 28, that is 1/14.


Answers:

I) 28
II) 1/28</span>≈0.0357
III) 1/14≈0.0714
IV)


{(J, C),  (J, G), (J, M),  (J, E),   (J, D),  (J, A),   (J, S)
          , (C, G), (C, M), (C, E),   (C, D), (C, A),  (C, S)
                      , (G, M), (G, E),  (G, D), (G, A),  (G, S)
                                   ,(M, E),  (M, D), (M, A),  (M, S)    
                                               , (E, D),  (E, A),  (E, S)    
                                                            , (D, A), (D, S)
                                                                        , (A, S).}

What transformations are used in transforming the parent graph y = x, to obtain the graph of c (x) = StartFraction 5 Over 9 EndF
Genrish500 [490]

Given that:

Parent equation : y=x

Transformed function : c(x)=\dfrac{5}{9}(x-32)

Solution:

Let Parent equation be f(x)=x. Then,

c(x)=\dfrac{5}{9}f(x-32)      ...(1)

The translation is defined as

c(x)=kf(x+a)+b                .... (2)

Where, k is stretch factor, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If 0<k<1, then the graph compressed vertically by factor k and if k>1, then the graph stretch vertically by factor k.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

k=\dfrac{5}{9} , So graph of parent function compressed vertically by factor \dfrac{5}{9}.

a=-32, so the graph of parent function shifts 32 units right.

b=0, so there is no vertical shift.

Therefore, the graph of parent function compressed vertically by factor \dfrac{5}{9} and shifts 32 units right to get the graph of c(x).
