A manufacturer claims that the thickness of the spearmint gum it produces is 7.5 one-hundredths of an inch. A quality control specialist regularly checks this claim. On one production run, he took a random sample of n = 10 pieces of gum and measured their thickness. He obtained: 7.65 7.60 7.65 7.70 7.55
7.55 7.40 7.40 7.50 7.50
If the quality control specialist sets his significance level α at 0.05, will he support this claim?

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
