There are 15 different pieces of cheese on the plate. Is it possible by dividing only one piece to divide all into two groups with equal weight and equal amount of pieces in each?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It is possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each piece of cheese can be divided into two equal pieces.

Therefore, the 15 different pieces can produce 30 (15 * 2) equal pieces.

Then there will be 15 pieces in each group.

Provided during the division, it is ensured that equal weights were allocated to each piece, then each group will have the same weight as the other group.

Note that the division of the 15 pieces of cheese into two equal parts looks like the only way to have equal weight of two groups of the delicacy.

A polynomial is divided by (x - 2), the quotient is (x – 6), and the remainder is -6
What is the original polynomial

Answers

Answer: x^2-8x+6

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

Explanation:

n = numerator polynomial = unknown (what we want to solve for)

d = denominator polynomial = x-2

q = quotient = x-6

r = remainder = -6

Based on that, we can say,

n/d = q + r/d

n = q*d + r ... multiply every term by d

n = (x-6)(x-2) + (-6) .... substitution

n = x^2-8x+12-6

n = x^2-8x+6

Dividing (x^2-8x+6) over (x-2) leads to a quotient of (x-6) and a remainder of -6.

Factor 5x 4 - 30x 2 - 135. 5(x2 + 9)(x2 - 3) 5(x - 3)(x + 3)(x2 - 3) 5(x - 3)(x + 3)(x2 + 3)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5x^{4} -30x^{2} -135[/tex]

We need to pull out 5 to make the rest easier to factor.

[tex]5(x^{4} -6x^{2} -27)[/tex]

Now we can factor.

Consider all combinations of how to get 27.

1 x 27

3 x 9

And that's it before you end up just switching the place i.e. 9 x 3 and 27 x 1

This makes it easy to see that 3 and 9 are our best choice because 9 - 3 is 6 which is our middle term in the equation.

So now we have:

[tex]5(x^{2} -9)(x^{2} +3)[/tex]

We can break down [tex]x^{2} -9[/tex] even further because it's a perfect square.

(x - 3)(x + 3)

Our final factor is

5(x - 3)(x + 3)[tex](x^{2} +3)[/tex]

10x + 36 = 8x -36
What is x?

Answers

Answer:

x= -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps.

Answer:

[tex]x = -36[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for [tex]x[/tex] :

[tex]10x + 36 = 8x - 36[/tex]

-Subtract [tex]8x[/tex] from [tex]10x[/tex] :

[tex]10x - 8x + 36 = 8x - 8x - 36[/tex]

[tex]2x + 36 = -36[/tex]

-Subtract both sides of the equation by [tex]36[/tex] :

[tex]2x + 36 - 36 = -36 -36[/tex]

[tex]2x = -72[/tex]

-Take [tex]2x[/tex] divide it on both sides:

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{-72}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = -36[/tex]

So therefore, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is [tex]-36[/tex].

Find the z score that cuts-off the largest 9% under the standard normal curve. a) -1.34 b) 1.34 c) 0.536 d) 1.28

Answers

Answer:

b) 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score is used to determine the number of standard deviations by which the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the z score is above the mean while for a negative z score implies that it is below the mean. The z score is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For the largest 9%, the score is 100% - 9% = 91% = 0.91

From the normal distribution table, the z score that corresponds to 0.91 is 1.34

55

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to know how much is 2/5 of 550 since that is how much she put in the jar. 2/5 * 550 = 220 and then you need to find a 1/4 of that since that is how much she takes from th jar for vecation. 1/4 * 220 = 55 which is the awnser

In the bin there is a 45% chance of randomly selecting ripe avocados. If you are picking avocados from the bin, you keep inspecting avocados and stop upon finding a ripe avocado. If you buy a bag of avocados, you do not inspect the fruit until you get home and inspect the bag of avocados all at once.
1. What is the probability that you have inclusively between 2 and 3 ripe avocados from your bag of 5 avocados?
2. What is the probability that you inspect inclusively 3 and 3 avocados from the bin?

Answers

Answer:

0.6125

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

P(ripe avocados) = 0.45 , n = 5

by binomial distribution,

P(x=k) = [tex]${\overset{n}C}_k P^k(1-P)^{n-k}$[/tex]

P(2 ≤ x ≤ 3) = P(x=2) + P(x=3)

P(x=2) = [tex]${\overset{5}C}_2(0.45)^2(0.55)^3$[/tex]

           = 10 x (0.45)² x (0.55)³

           = 0.3369

P(x=3) = [tex]${\overset{5}C}_3(0.45)^3(0.55)^2$[/tex]

           = 10 x (0.45)³ x (0.55)²

           = 0.2756

So, P(2 ≤ x ≤ 3 ) = 0.3369 + 0.2756

                          = 0.6125
