Solve the following equation for
a
a. Be sure to take into account whether a letter is capitalized or not.

Observe that the x coords of the roots of a polynomial are,

[tex]x_{1,2,3,4}=\{-3,0,1,4\}[/tex]

Which can be put into form,

[tex]y=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)[/tex]

with data

[tex]y=a(x-(-3))(x-0)(x-1)(x-4)=ax(x+3)(x-1)(x-4)[/tex]

Now if I take any root point and insert it into the equation I won't be able to solve for y because they will always multiply to zero (ie. when I pick [tex]x=-3[/tex] the right hand side will multiply to zero,

[tex]y=-3a(-3+3)(-3-1)(-3-4)=0[/tex]

and a will be "lost" in the process.

If we observed a non-root point that we could substitute with x and y and result in a non-loss process then you could find a. But since there is no such point (I don't think you can read it of the graph) there is no other viable way to find a.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

  $3277.23

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value of the CD with interest at rate r compounded semiannually for t years will be given by ...

  A = P(1 +r/2)^(2t)

where P is the principal value.

For the given rate and time, this is ...

  A = $2000(1 +0.05/2)^(2·10) = $2000(1.025^20) ≈ $3277.23

The value of the CD at maturity will be $3277.23.

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

12 -4x-5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from each side

12-9x-12 = 39-12

-9x = 27

Divide by -9

-9x/-9 = 27/-9

x = -3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

12 - 4x - 5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 - 9x = 39 - 12

-9x = 27

Divide both sides by -9

-9x/-9 = 27/-9

x = -3

Answer:

5/8 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by

A = l*w  where l is the length and w is the width

A = 5/6 * 3/4

A = 3/6 * 5/4

A = 1/2 * 5/4

A = 5/8 ft^2

Answer:

The answer is "Specific treatment levels".

Step-by-step explanation:

When we experimenting with 'level' which is related to the quantity or magnitude of treatment. For this part of an experiment or study, a group or individual is exposed to a specified set of circumstances. For example: If four categories are exposed to different doses of a given drug, then each dose reflects a level of a treatment factor in the model.

Answer:

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is

[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]

The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.

First lets visualize this sequence

[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]

Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.

[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]

Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.

[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]

To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Answer:

-52

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)

Distribute the left side to get:

(-4x + -40) - 6

Now distribute the right side to get:

-3x + 6

Arrange the equation as the following:

-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Add the like terms on each side:

-4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Do the inverse operation of each term:

-x = 52

Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.

And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

Answer: -52

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2)

Distribute the left side to get:

(-4x + -40) - 6

Now distribute the right side to get:

-3x + 6

Arrange the equation as the following:

-4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Add the like terms on each side:

-4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Do the inverse operation of each term:

-x = 52

Now we need to get x to become a positive, so we just divide -x by -1 to get x.

And 52/-1 to get our final answer of -52.

Answer:

-2pi/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2 cos 3(x + 2π∕3) +1

y = A sin(B(x + C)) + D  

amplitude is A

period is 2π/B

phase shift is C (positive is to the left)

vertical shift is D

We have a shift to the left of 2 pi /3

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard cosine function has the form:

[tex]\displaystyle y = a\cos (b(x-c)) + d[/tex]

Where |a| is the amplitude, 2π / b is the period, c is the phase shift, and d is the vertical shift.

We have the function:

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2 \cos 3\left(x + \frac{2\pi}{3}\right) + 1[/tex]

We can rewrite this as:

[tex]\displaystyle y = \left(2\right)\cos 3\left(x - \left(-\frac{2\pi}{3}\right)\right) + 1[/tex]

Therefore, a = 2, b = 3, c = -2π/3, and d = 1.

Our phase shift is represented by c. Thus, the phase shift is -2π/3.

Our answer is A.

Answer:

c. The researchers are 95% confident that the true mean difference in ALT values between the population of drinkers and population of non-drinkers is between 24.32 and 39.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Groups:

x1 = 69 ; s1 = 19 ; n1 = 38

x2 = 32 ; s2 = 14 ; n2 = 37

1 - α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Using a confidence interval calculator to save computation time, kindly plug the values into the calculator :

The confidence interval obtained is :

(24.32 ; 39.68) ; This means that we are 95% confident that the true mean difference in ALT values between the two population lies between

(24.32 ; 39.68) .

The equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions

The given equation is:

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]

First, we determine the solutions

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 8 + 5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 3[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]x - 1 = (x - 3)^2[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 3x - 3x + 9[/tex]

[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 6x + 9[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x^2 - 6x - x + 9 + 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Expand again

[tex]x^2 - 2x-5x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x(x - 2) -5(x -2)= 0[/tex]

Factor out x - 2

[tex](x - 5)(x -2)= 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]x - 5=0[/tex] or [tex]x - 2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x= 5[/tex] or [tex]x = 2[/tex]

The above values are valid values of x.

Hence, the equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions

Answer:

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

First take 60 percent off

x - x*60% = new price

x- .60x = .40x

The new price is .40x

Then take 15 % off

(.40x) - (.40x)*15%

.40x - .40x*.15

.40x - .06x

.34x

100 -.34 =.66

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off
