Which statement best describes how to determine whether f(x) = x squared- x +8 is an even function ?

Use addition and subtraction to simplify the following polynomials. a. add polynomials: (3 – 4x + 8x^2) + (–6 + 2x – 5x^2) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial. b. subtract polynomials: (3x – 5 – 7x^2) – (–2 + 6x^2 – 5x) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. remember to multiply each term in the second parentheses by –1. show your work. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial.

Afactory makes propeller drive shafts for ships. a quality assurance engineer at the factory needs to estimate the true mean length of the shafts. she randomly selects four drive shafts made at the factory, measures their lengths, and finds their sample mean to be 1000 mm. the lengths are known to follow a normal distribution whose standard deviation is 2 mm. calculate a 95% confidence interval for the true mean length of the shafts. input your answers for the margin of error, lower bound, and upper bound.

Will give the box plots below show the math scores of students in two different classes: class a 55 72 75 89 95 class b 55 70 75 94 100 based on the box plots, which statement is correct? a: the median score of class a is greater than the median score of class b. b: the lower quartile of class a is greater than the lower quartile of class b. c: the upper quartile of class a is greater than the upper quartile of class b. d: the maximum score of class a is greater than the maximum score of class b.
