In mathematics, a polynomial<span> is an expression consisting of variables (also called indeterminates) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents of variables. An example of a </span>polynomial<span> of a single indeterminate x is x</span>2<span> − 4x + 7.</span>
Answer:
students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent
Step-by-step explanation:
There are four type of scales in mathematics. They include:
1. Nominal scale : they do not measure quantity. they are used to classify a population into two or more scales that are exhaustive and mutually exclusive. e.g. classifying a population based on gender, naming the different car brands seen in a school's parking lot
2. Ordinal scale : this scale measures ranks a population from best to worst or from least to most. e.g. ranking the participants of a race based on their performance
3. Interval scale : this scale has the property of order and equal intervals. Zero is not meaningful.
Interval scale is used when the difference between the numbers are meaningful. e.g. students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent Here a child who is scored 1, did very poorly and a child scored 5, performed excellently well.
4. Ratio scale : this scale has the property of order, a meaningful zero and equal intervals.
Answer:
<em>The estimated sales were $260 million</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the endpoints of a segment are (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).
The midpoint (xm,ym) is calculated as follows:
The sales ov Cars, Inc. were (2008,240 million) and (2010,280 million). We need to use the midpoint to estimate the sales in 2009:
The estimated sales were $260 million
Let red marbles = X.
The probability is 1 out of 5, written as 1/5
1/5 in terms of red marbles is equal to the number of red marbles divided by 5x, where 5x is the total number of marbles.
1/5 = x/5x
Now you have 5x total marbles, x red and 4x blue.
Add 5 more red and the new probability is:
(x+5)/(5x+5) = 1/3
Simplify:
3x+15 = 5x+5
Now solve for x:
Subtract 3x from both sides:
15 = 2x +5
Subtract 5 from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
X = 5
There were originally 5 red marbles.
