Find a cubic polynomial with integer coefficients that has $\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$ as a root.
Answers
Find the powers [tex]a=\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}[/tex]
$a^{2}=5+2 \sqrt{6}$
$a^{3}=11 \sqrt{2}+9 \sqrt{3}$
The cubic term gives us a clue, we can use a linear combination to eliminate the root 3 term $a^{3}-9 a=2 \sqrt{2}$ Square $\left(a^{3}-9 a\right)^{2}=8$ which gives one solution. Expand we have $a^{6}-18 a^{4}-81 a^{2}=8$ Hence the polynomial $x^{6}-18 x^{4}-81 x^{2}-8$ will have a as a solution.
Note this is not the simplest solution as $x^{6}-18 x^{4}-81 x^{2}-8=\left(x^{2}-8\right)\left(x^{4}-10 x^{2}+1\right)$

Statement 2: A line has an infinite number of points extending in opposite directions. Which geometry term does each statement represent? (4 points) Statement 1: definition; Statement 2: theorem Statement 1: postulate; Statement 2: definition Statement 1: postulate; Statement 2: theorem Statement 1: theorem; Statement 2: postulate
Answers
Answer: Statement 1: postulate; Statement 2: definition
Step-by-step explanation:
A postulate is assumed to be a fact and used to derive conclusions about any argument .A definition is a brief explanatory statement of a term.A theorem is a statement that can be proved to be true by using given, definitions, postulates or prior proved theorems .Here, Statement 1:If parallel lines have a transversal, then corresponding angles are congruent.
which is a fact, and hence it is postulate.
Statement 2: A line has an infinite number of points extending in opposite directions.
which is an explanatory statement of a 'line', hence it is 'definition.
So the correct option is Statement 1: postulate; Statement 2: definition
Answer:statement 1 and statement 2 postulate

Sherina wrote and solved the equation. x minus 56 = 230. x minus 56 minus 56 = 230 minus 56. x = 174. What was Sherina’s error?
Answers
Answer:
subtracting 56 instead of adding (or adding wrong)
Step-by-step explanation:
She wrote ...
x - 56 = 230
x - 56 - 56 = 230 -56 . . . . correct application of the addition property*
x = 230 -56 . . . . . . . . . . . . incorrect simplification
Correctly done, the third line would be ...
x -112 = 174
This would have made Sherina realize that the error was in subtracting 56 instead of adding it. The correct solution would be ...
x - 56 + 56 = 230 + 56 . . . using the addition property of equality
x = 286 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . correct simplification on both sides
__
There were two errors:
1) incorrect strategy --- subtracting 56 instead of adding
2) incorrect simplification --- simplifying -56 -56 to zero instead of -112
We don't know whether you want to count the error in thinking as the first error, or the error in execution where the mechanics of addition were incorrectly done.
_____
* The addition property of equality requires the same number be added to both sides of the equation. Sherina did that correctly. However, the number chosen to be added was the opposite of the number that would usefully work toward a solution.
Answer:
D: Sherina should have added 56 to both sides of the equation.

A recent national survey found that high school students watched an average (mean) of 7.1 movies per month with a population standard deviation of 1.0. The distribution of number of movies watched per month follows the normal distribution. A random sample of 33 college students revealed that the mean number of movies watched last month was 6.2. At the 0.05 significance level, can we conclude that college students watch fewer movies a month than high school students? State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.
Answers
Answer:
H0: μc ≤ μs Ha :μc > μs
Step-by-step explanation:
The null and alternate hypotheses can be stated as
H0: μc ≤ μs Ha :μc > μs one tailed test
Where
μc = Mean of college students watching movies in a month
μs = Mean of school students watching movies in a month
For one tailed test of α =0.05 the value of Z= ± 1.645
The critical region will be Z > ± 1.645
It is of importance to note that by rejecting the null hypothesis and accepting the alternate hypothesis we are automatically rejecting all values of mean that are greater than 7.1

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (9, 1) and (9,-4).
Answers
Answer:
slope is undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
(9, 1 ) and (9, - 4 )
Since the x- coordinates of the 2 points are 9, then the line is vertical and parallel to the y- axis with slope being undefined.
Slope is the change in y over the change in x.
Slope = (-4 - 1) / (9 -9) = -5/0 you cannot divide by 0,so the slope is undefined. This means it is a vertical line

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1
= √∑0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0625 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 / 9
= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1
= √∑ [(0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.23)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)²] / 9
= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%
Yes, the limited data listed here shows evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.
A motorboat travels 189 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream and 475 kilometers in 5 hours going downstream. What is the rate of the boat in still water and what is the rate of the current?
Answers
Answer:
boat speed 79 kph
stream speed 16kph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let v be the still water velocity
Let s be the stream velocity
3(v - s) = 189
3v - 3s = 189
v - s = 63
v = 63 + s
5(v + s) = 475
5v + 5s = 475
5(63 + s) + 5s = 475
315 + 5s + 5s = 475
10s = 160
s = 16 km/hr
v = 63 + 16
v = 79 km/hr

A professor graded the final exams and found that the mean score was 70 points. Which of the following can you conclude?
A- All of the above.
B- The median score was 70 points.
C- 50% of the students scored below 70 points.
D- This would be a normal distribution.
Answers
Answer: C) 50% of the students scored below 70%
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean is the average. To find the mean (aka average) you add up all of the scores and divide by the number of tests.
B) The mean can be 70 without any test scoring 70% so B is not true.
A) Since B is not true, then A is not a valid option.
D) We don't know any of the other data so don't know if it is skewed left, skewed right, or normal. Therefore, option D is not true.
C) If the average is 70%, then half received grades above that score and half received grades below that score. So, option C is TRUE!

Step-by-step explanation:
32 pears
Josh = 4l
leya = a/2
Amy = ?
L =8
A = 4
Check answer:
josh = 32
leya = 8
amy =4
Josh has 4 times as Leya True
Leya has half as many pears as Amy True
Step-by-step explanation:
Let J represent the number of pears Josh has.
Let L represent the number of pears Leya has.
Let A represent the number of pears Amy has.
From the question given above,
Josh (J) = 4 × Leya (L)
J = 4L ....... (1)
Leya (L) = ½ × Amy (A)
L = ½A ........ (2)
Next, we shall determine the number of pears Leya has. This can be obtained as follow:
From equation 1
J = 4L
But
Josh (J) = 32 pears
Thus,
32 = 4L
Divide both side by 4
L = 32 / 4
Leya (L) = 8 pearsFinally, we shall determine the number pears Amy has. This can be obtained as follow:
From equation 2
L = ½A
But
Leya (L) = 8 pears
Thus,
8 = ½A
Cross multiply
A = 8 × 2
Amy (A) = 16 pearsTherefore, Amy has 16 pears.

One side of a right triangle is known to be 12 cm long and the opposite angle is measured as 30°, with a possible error of ±1°. Use differentials to estimate the error in computing the length of the hypotenuse. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answers
Answer:
estimated error=±0.725
Step-by-step explanation:
Side of the triangle= 12cm
Opposite of triangle x= 30
h= hypotenose side
Error= =±1
From trigonometry
Sin(x)=opposite/hypotenose
hypotenose=opposite/sin(x)
h=12/sin(x)
h=12Csc(x)
dh=-12Csc(x)Cot(x) dx...............eqn(1)
dx is the possible error in angle measurements
So we need to convert to radius
dx=±1°× (π/180)
=±1°(π/180)
Substitute x and dx into equation (1)
dh= - 12Csc30°Cot30°×[±(π/180)]
= -12(2)(√3)(±(π/180)
==±0.725
Therefore, estimated error=±0.725

0 -1 = 2log(x-1)
which has the solution ...

=Vlookup'B13' A11' 7'false
Press enter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Vlookup is a technique in excel which enables users to search for criterion values. It is vertical lookup function in excel which return a value from a different column. The formula for Vlookup function is:
=Vlookup'select cell you want to look up in' select cell you want to lookup from' select column index number' true/false.
where true is approximate match and false is exact match.

If DF =61 and EF = 18 find DE
Answers
Answer: DE = 79
Concept:
Here, we need to know the idea of segment addition postulate.
The Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.
If you are still confused, you may refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation or tell me.
Solve:
**Disclaimer** I assume that points D, E, F are collinear, thus they would form a segment and F would be the point between D and E. If it was, you may refer to my answers. If it was not, you may tell me and I will redo it.
Given information
DF = 61
EF = 18
Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate
DE = DF + EF
Substitute values into the expression
DE = (61) + (18)
Simplify by addition
[tex]\boxed{DE=79}[/tex]
Hope this helps!! :)

For a certain value of $k$, the system
x + y + 3z = 10,
-4x + 3y + 5z = 7,
kx + z = 3
has no solutions. What is this value of k?
Answers
kx + z = 3 means z = 3 - kx. Substitute this into the first two equations:
x + y + 3 (3 - kx) = 10 ==> (1 - 3k) x + y = 1
-4x + 3y + 5 (3 - kx) = 7 ==> (-4 - 5k) x + 3y = -8
Multiply through the first equation by -3 :
-3 ((1 - 3k) x + y) = -3 (1) ==> (-3 + 9k) x - 3y = -3
Add this to the second equation to eliminate y :
((-3 + 9k) x - 3y) + ((-4 - 5k) x + 3y) = -3 + (-8)
(-7 + 4k) x = -11
Normally, you would solve for x by dividing both sides by -7 + 4k. But you can't do that if this turns out to be equal to 0, which happens for
-7 + 4k = 0 ==> k = 7/4
Answer:
k = 7/4
