Given f(x) = 3x^3 - 8x + k, and x – 1 is a factor of f(x), then what is the value
of k?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that (x - h) is a factor of f(x) then f(h) = 0

Given (x - 1) is a factor of f(x), then f(1) = 0, that is

3(1)³ - 8(1) + k = 0

3 - 8 + k = 0

- 5 + k = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )

k = 5

Answer 2

The value of k in the polynomial f(x) = 3x³ - 8x + k is 5.

What is a factor of a polynomial?

We know that if x = a is one of the roots of a given polynomial x - a = 0 is a factor of the given polynomial.

To confirm if x - a = 0 is a factor of a polynomial we replace f(x) with f(a) and if the remainder is zero then it is confirmed that x - a = 0 is a factor.

Given,  f(x) = 3x³ - 8x + k, and (x - 1) ⇒ x = 1 is a factor of f(x),

∴ If we replace 1 in place x and make f(x) = 0 and equate we will have the value of k.

So, 0 = 3(1) - 8(1) + k.

0 = 3 - 8 + k.

k = 5.

is the probability the cantaloupe came from Warehouse B?

A: The probability of cantaloupe having dia. more than 127 is 0.12167.

B: Cantaloupe selected at random from the warehouse, then the probability that has a diameter of more than 127 mm is 0.3782.

C: The probability that the cantaloupe will be from warehouse B given randomly selected cantaloupe's diameter is greater than 127 mm, is 0.8069.

What is probability?

The probability formula is defined as the possibility of an event happening being equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes. Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event occurring.  Also, the favorable number of outcomes cannot be negative.

Given two warehouses, A and B

mean for warehouse A = μ = 120 mm

The standard deviation for warehouse A = σ = 6mm

A:  a cantaloupe selected at random from Warehouse A

to find the probability of cantaloupe having a diameter greater than      127 mm = P(x > 127)

P(x > 127) = 1 - P(x ≤ 127)

P(x ≤ 127) = P((x - μ)/σ)

P(x ≤ 127) = P((127 - 120)/6)

P(x ≤ 127) = P(z ≤ 1.66)

P(x ≤ 127) = 0.87833

P(x > 127) = 1 - P(x ≤ 127)

P(x > 127) = 1 - P(x < 127) = 0.12167

probability of cantaloupe having dia. more than 127 is 0.12167.

B: Let event A for distributor A and  let event B for distributor B

and event C for a diameter greater than 127 mm.

and given A randomly selected cantaloupe from Warehouse B has a probability of 0.763 that it will have a diameter greater than 127 mm,

and the percentage of cantaloupe provided by B is 40%

rest 60% for A,

therefore, for cantaloupe selected at random, the probability of having a diameter greater than 127 mm is

P(C) = P(C|A)P(A) + P(C|B)P(B)

=  0.12167(0.6) + 0.763(0.4)

= 0.073 + 0.3052

P(C) = 0.3782

cantaloupe selected at random from the warehouse, then the probability that has a diameter of more than 127 mm is 0.3782.

C:   the probability the cantaloupe came from Warehouse B, given that the randomly selected cantaloupe's diameter is greater than 127 mm,

P(B|C) = P(B ∩ C)/P(C)

P(B|C) = (P(C|B)P(B))/P(C)

substitute values

P(B|C) = ((0.763)(0.4))/0.3782

P(B|C) = 0.3052/0.3782

P(B|C) = 0.8069

The probability that the cantaloupe will be from warehouse B given randomly selected cantaloupe's diameter is greater than 127 mm, is 0.8069.

Hence the probabilities are,

A;  0.12167

B; 0.3782

C; 0.8069.

An object travels along a horizontal straight path at a constant rate. The object travels 1 20 20 1 ​ of the length of the path in 3 4 4 3 ​ second. At that rate, how many seconds does it take the object to travel the entire length of the path?

Answers

Answer:

the number of seconds that needed for the overall path length is 15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of seconds that needed for the overall path length is shown below:

The tiny portion is 1 ÷ 20

And, the entire length is 20 ÷ 20

Now if 1 ÷ 20 is travelled in 3 ÷  4 path so the time needed is

= 20 × 3 ÷ 4

= 15 seconds

Hence, the number of seconds that needed for the overall path length is 15 seconds
