4 or more apples could be green because if there are 3 or less red then there must be 4-7 green
Vikentia [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4, 5, 6 or 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total number of apples = 7,

Let x be the number of red apples,

Then the number of green apples = 7 - x,

According to the question,

x < 4

-x > -4

7-x > 7 - 4

7-x > 3

⇒ Number of green apples > 3,

Also, number of green apples ≤ 7

Thus, the number of green apples are more than 3 i.e. 4, 5, 6 or 7.

The polynomial function f(x)=-x^3+x^2+14x-24 has zeros at x=-4, x=3, and x=2. Which of the following graphs represents the funct
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Assuming the choices are only of C and D, D would be the graph of the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many things that would cause D to be the graph of f(x).

Firstly, D has the end behavior of a -x^{3} function.

Secondly, it has correct zeroes

Lastly, Its y-intercept is -24, which is the case of the function f(x) as

f(0) = -24

Suppose that 20% of the adult women in the United States dye or highlight their hair. We would like to know the probability that
Rasek [7]

Answer:

71.08% probability that pˆ takes a value between 0.17 and 0.23.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the binomial approxiation to the normal to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.2, n = 200. So

\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.2 = 40

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.2*0.8} = 5.66

In other words, find probability that pˆ takes a value between 0.17 and 0.23.

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 200*0.23 = 46 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 200*0.17 = 34. So

X = 46

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{46 - 40}{5.66}

Z = 1.06

Z = 1.06 has a pvalue of 0.8554

X = 34

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{34 - 40}{5.66}

Z = -1.06

Z = -1.06 has a pvalue of 0.1446

0.8554 - 0.1446 = 0.7108

71.08% probability that pˆ takes a value between 0.17 and 0.23.

Doss [256]

Answer:

A) b) and c) answer has been explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the question would use 1's and 0's and taking probabilities to be equal for both using random test pattern whose formula is when p = q

then Simplify to

P[k] =  nCk /2^n

A.Probability that all bits are 1s

16c16/2^16 = 1/65536

B. Probability that all bits are 0s

16c0/2^16 = 1/65536

C.the probability that exactly 8 bits are 1s and 8 bits are 0s

16c8/2^16 = 12870/65536 =>0.1963 ≈ 19.63%

What are the possible numbers of positive real, negative real, and complex zeros of f(x) = −7x4 − 12x3 + 9x2 − 17x + 3?
madreJ [45]
Now, recall Descartes Rule of Signs.  Check the picture below.

the +x part, gives us the positive Real zeros, and it depends on how many times the sign changes from term to term, notice in the picture, it changed 3 times, so the positive real ones are 3, or 3-2, namely 1, so 3 or 1.

the negative real ones, come from using -x as the argument on f(x), and as you can see in the picture, there was only 1 sign change, meaning the negative real zeros are only 1.

since, based on the fundamental theorem of algebra the polynomial has 4 roots at most then,

3 positive real ones, and 1 negative real one, no complex ones

or

1 positive real one, and 1 negative real one, and 2 complex ones

bear in mind that complex always come in pairs, never alone.
