given that (3x+2) is a factor of 3x^3+bx^2-3x-2. find the value of b?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]b = 2[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

By the factor theorem, if a monomial of the form [tex](x - a)[/tex] is a factor of the polynomial [tex](3\, x^{3} + b\, x^{2} - 3\, x - 2)[/tex], then substituting in [tex]x = a[/tex] would set this polynomial to [tex]0[/tex].

Notice that in the factor theorem, the coefficient of [tex]x[/tex] in [tex](x - a)[/tex] is [tex]1[/tex], and the sign in front of the constant [tex]a[/tex] is a minus sign. Rewrite the given factor [tex](3\, x + 2)[/tex] in this form to find the value of [tex]a\![/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& (3\, x + 2) \\ =\; & 3\, (x + (2/3)) \\ =\; & 3\, (x - \underbrace{(-2/3)}_{a}) \end{aligned}[/tex].

Thus, [tex]x = (-2/3)[/tex] should set the polynomial [tex](3\, x^{3} + b\, x^{2} - 3\, x - 2)[/tex] to [tex]0[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} & (3\, x^{3} + b\, x^{2} - 3\, x - 2) \\ =\; & 3\times (-2/3)^{3} + b\times (-2/3)^{2} - 3 \times (-2/3) - 2 \\ =\; & -3\times (2/3)^{3} + b\times (2/3)^{2} + 3 \times (2/3) - 2 \\ =\; & -\frac{8}{9} + \frac{4\, b}{9} + 2 - 2 \\ =\; & \frac{-8 + 4\, b}{9}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Set this expression to [tex]0[/tex] and solve for [tex]b[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-8 + 4\, b}{9} = 0[/tex].

[tex]b = 2[/tex].

Select the correct answer. Which sentence correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14? A. 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 14. B. 68% of the data points lie between 8 and 12. C. 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18. D. 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 16.

Answers

Answer: Option (c) is correct.

68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

Step-by-step explanation: Given :  a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14

We have to choose the  sentence that correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14.

Since, given 68% data.

We know mean of data lies in middle.

And standard deviation is distribute equally about the mean that is 50% of values less than the mean  and 50% greater than the mean.

So, 68% of data lies

mean - standard deviation = 14 - 4 = 10

mean + standard deviation = 14 + 4 = 18

So, 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

bio = 258

sociology = 169

============================================================

Work Shown:

x = number of bio textbooks

y = number of sociology textbooks

x+y = 427 books sold total

y = x-89 since 89 less sociology textbooks were sold compared to bio

Apply substitution to get the following

x+y = 427

x+x-89 = 427 ... replace y with x-89

2x-89 = 427

2x = 427+89

2x = 516

x = 516/2

x = 258 bio textbooks were sold

y = x-89

y = 258-89

y = 169 sociology textbooks were sold

Max is creating a playlist and can have at most 180 minutes of music. He currently has 45 minutes. How many more minutes of music could Max include in the playlist?​

Answers

Answer:

max could still add 135 minutes of music into his playlist

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 45 = 135

Answer:

So we know that Max's playlist can have at most 180 minutes of music meaning that our amount of music cannot exceed that number.  We are also given that Max already has 45 minutes of music on there so we need to subtract that from 180 minutes to see how much we have left.

[tex]180\ minutes - 45\ minutes[/tex]

[tex]135\ minutes[/tex]

Max still has 135 minutes left on his playlist that he can fill up.

Can anyone help me with this please?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

since there are answer options we don't need to formally solve the system of equations, we only need to try the first point of every option, and see, where the equations are true.

if we cannot find it for the first point, then we would need to try the same thing for the serving points.

let's put (0, 6) into the first equation :

-2×0² + 6 = 6

6 = 6 true

let's put it into the second equation ;

4×0² + 3×6 = 28

18 = 28 false

that eliminates the first 2 answers.

let's put (-1, 4) into the first equation :

-2×(-1)² + 4 = 6

-2×1 + 4 = 6

-2 + 4 = 6

2 = 6 false

that eliminates the third answer.

let's put (-1, 8) into the first equation :

-2×(-1)² + 8 = 6

-2 + 8 = 6

6 = 6 true

let's put it into the second equation :

4×(-1)² + 3×8 = 28

4 + 24 = 28

28 = 28 true

and because the square function delivers the same result for -1 and +1, it is also true for the second point.

and the 4th answer is therefore correct.

# The size of an exterior angle of a triangle is the supplement of smaller of two opposite interior angles. If the greater of the opposite interior angles exceeds smaller by 30°, find the measure of the interior angles of the triangle.

please help me​

Answers

Answer:

30° and 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the interior angles be ∠x₁ (smaller) and ∠x₂ (larger), and the exterior angle ∠X.

Making the statements into equations :

Size of an exterior angle of a triangle is the supplement of smaller of two opposite interior angles ⇒ ∠X + ∠x₁ + ∠x₂ = 180° [Equation 1]

Greater of the opposite interior angles exceeds smaller by 30° :

⇒ ∠x₂ = ∠x₁ + 30° [Equation 2]

By exterior angle property :

⇒ ∠x₁ + ∠x₂ = ∠X [Equation 3]

Substituting Equation 3 in Equation 1 :

⇒ ∠x₁ + ∠x₂ + ∠x₁ + ∠x₂ = 180°

⇒ 2 (∠x₁ + ∠x₂) = 180°

⇒ ∠x₁ + ∠x₂ = 90°

⇒ ∠x₂ = 90° - ∠x₁ [Equation 4]

Substituting Equation 4 in Equation 2 :

⇒ 90° - ∠x₁ = ∠x₁ + 30°

⇒ 2∠x₁ = 60°

⇒ ∠x₁ = 30°

Substituting the value of ∠x₁ in Equation 2 :

⇒ ∠x₂ = 30° + 30°

⇒ ∠x₂ = 60°

The measures of the interior angles are 30° and 60°

Answer:

[tex]\textsf{i)} \quad \text{T} &=2 \pi r^2 + \dfrac{26}{r}[/tex]

ii)  radius = 1.27 cm (3 sf)

   height = 2.55 cm (3 sf)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Volume of a cylinder}=\pi r^2 h \quad \text{(where r is radius and h is height)}[/tex]

Given volume = 13 cm³, rewrite the equation making h the subject:

[tex]\implies 13=\pi r^2 h[/tex]

[tex]\implies h=\dfrac{13}{\pi r^2}[/tex]

Substitute found expression for h into the Surface Area equation to find the expression for the total surface area, T:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Surface Area of a cylinder} & =2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h\\\implies \text{Surface Area} & =2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r \left(\dfrac{13}{\pi r^2}\right)\\& =2 \pi r^2 + \dfrac{26 \pi r}{\pi r^2}\\ \implies \text{T} &=2 \pi r^2 + \dfrac{26}{r}\end{aligned}[/tex]

To find the radius of the minimum surface area, differentiate T with respect to r:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{T}& =2 \pi r^2 +26r^{-1}\\\implies \dfrac{dT}{dr} & =(2)2 \pi r^{(2-1)}+(-1)26r^{(-1-1)}\\ & =4 \pi r-26r^{-2}\\ & =4 \pi r-\dfrac{26}{r^2}\\ & = \dfrac{4 \pi r^3-26}{r^2} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Set it to zero, and solve for r:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\dfrac{dT}{dr} & = 0 \\\implies \dfrac{4 \pi r^3-26}{r^2} & = 0 \\\impliles 4 \pi r^3-26 & = 0 \\4 \pi r^3 & = 26 \\r^3 & = \dfrac{13}{2 \pi} \\r & = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{13}{2 \pi}} \end{aligned}[/tex]

To find the height, substitute the found value of r into the equation for height (found previously):

[tex]\begin{aligned}h & =\dfrac{13}{\pi r^2} \\\implies h & =\dfrac{13}{\pi \left(\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{13}{2 \pi}}\right)^2} \\& =2.548499134\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore,

radius = 1.274249567... = 1.27 cm (3 sf)height = 2.548499134... = 2.55 cm (3 sf)

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 84 people would be expected to have BP > 160.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

Researching the problem on the internet, the mean and the standard deviation for the BPs are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 122, \sigma = 22[/tex].

The proportion of adults with BP > 160 is given by one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 160, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 122}{22}[/tex]

Z = 1.73

Z = 1.73 has a p-value of 0.9582.

1 - 0.9582 = 0.0418.

Out of 2000 people:

0.0418 x 2000 = 83.6.

Rounding to the nearest integer, 84 people would be expected to have BP > 160.

52/65

0.8 seconds/1 rotation

0.8 seconds per rotation


Now let us multiply 0.8 by 200 to get our answer


0.8 * 200

160


It takes 160 seconds to do 200 rotations

Answer:

160 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 65 rotations in 52 seconds, let's represent it like this:

[tex]\frac{52 seconds}{65 rotations}[/tex]

Now, let's multiply this by 200 rotations, and cancel out the rotations on the bottom:

[tex]\frac{52 seconds}{65 rotations} * 200 rotations[/tex]

See how there is rotations on both the top and bottom? This cancels both of them and leaves seconds!

Multiply the above equation and we get:

160 seconds or 2 minutes 40 seconds.
