What is the vertex of the graph of the function f(x) = x2 + 3x - 2?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write it on vertex form (f(x) = a(x - c)² + d where (c, d) is the vertex) and to do that we will complete the square.

f(x) = x² + 3x - 2

= (x² + 3x + 9/4) - 9/4 - 2

= (x + 1.5)² - 4.25

The vertex is (-1.5, -4.25).

(05.05)On a coordinate plane, the coordinates of vertices R and T for a polygon are R(−6, 2) and T(5, 2). What is the length of Side RT of the polygon? 4 unit 6 units 7 units 11 units

Answers

Answer:  11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: On a coordinate plane, the coordinates of vertices R and T for a polygon are R(−6, 2) and T(5, 2).

To find : length of Side RT of the polygon.

Using distance formula  to find distance between (a,b) and (c,d):

[tex]d=\sqrt{(d-b)^2+(c-a)^2}[/tex]

Length of RT = [tex]\sqrt{(2-2)^2+(5-(-6))^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\\\=\sqrt{0+(5+6)^2}\\\\= \sqrt{11^2}\\\\=11[/tex]

hence, the length of RT = 11 units.

Answer:

the answer is 11 units

At a figure skating competition, the order of skaters is randomly selected. If
there are 20 skaters, what is the probability that Christie, Taylor, and Jona will
skate first, second, and third, respectively?

Answers

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the permutations:

The arrangement of n things in an order = n!

If we fix that the first, second, and third person for skating, then we to arrange only 17 of the skaters.

Number of ways to arrange rest of 17 skaters = 17!

Number of ways that Christie, Taylor, and Jona will  skate first, second, and third, respectively = 1 x 17!=17!

Number of ways to arrange all 20 skaters = 20!

Now, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{\text{favourable outcomes}}{\text{total ways}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{17!}{20!}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{20\times19\times18}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

Hence, the required probability = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6840}[/tex]

In meters, find the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

75 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

30/50 = 45/x

x = 75

Answer:

x= 75m

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call the angle in the bottom left θ, then the sinθ=(opposite side)/(hypotenuse).

For the smaller triangle:

sinθ=30/50

And for the bigger triangle:

sinθ=45/x

So:

30/50=sinθ=45/x

30/50=45/x

x=(45•50)/30=2250/30=75

So x= 75 meters

The students at a High School earned money for an international animal rescue foundation. 82 seniors earned an average $26.75 per student, 74 juniors earned an average $12.25 per student, 96 sophomores earned an average $15.50 per student, and 99 freshmen earned an average $10.85 per student. What was the average collection for a student in this school?
A. $16.34
B. $16.13
C. $5.37
D. $16.63

Answers

Answer: B. $16.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : Sum of n observations = Mean x n

Given, 82 seniors earned an average $26.75 per student, 74 juniors earned an average $12.25 per student, 96 sophomores earned an average $15.50 per student, and 99 freshmen earned an average $10.85 per student.

Total students = 82+74+96+99 =351

Sum of earnings of 82 seniors  = $26.75  x 82= $2193.5

Sum of earnings of 74 juniors  = $12.25 x 74 = $906.5

Sum of earnings of 96 sophomores  = $15.50  x 96 = $1488

Sum of earnings of 99 freshmen  =  $10.85 x 99 = $1074.15

Total earnings =  $2193.5  + $906.5+  $1488 +$1074.15

= $5662.15

Average collection = (Total earnings) ÷ (Total students )

= $5662.15÷ 351

≈ $16.13

Hence, the  average collection for a student in this school = 16.31

Answer:  B.  (2,7)

================================================

Explanation:

Subtract straight down. The x terms subtract to 5x-2x = 3x. The y terms subtract to 3y-3y = 0y = 0, so the y terms go away and are eliminated. The terms on the right hand side subtract to 31-25 = 6.

After all that subtraction, we end up with the equation 3x = 6 which solves to x = 2 after dividing both sides by 3.

Use x = 2 to find the value of y

5x+3y = 31

5(2)+3y = 31

10+3y = 31

3y = 31-10

3y = 21

y = 21/3

y = 7

or

2x+3y = 25

2(2)+3y = 25

4+3y = 25

3y = 25-4

3y = 21

y = 21/3

y = 7

Using either equation has x = 2 lead to y = 7.

Therefore, the solution is (x,y) = (2,7)

If you were to graph the two original equations, then they would intersect at (2,7).

Find the equation for a hyperbola centered at (0, 0), with foci at (0,-sqrt73)) and (0,-sqrt73)) and vertices at (0, -8) and (0, 8).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{y^2}{64}-\dfrac{x^2}{9}=1[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since vertices lie on y-axis. So, it is a vertical parabola of the form

[tex]\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]

where, (h,k) is center, [tex](h,k\pm c)[/tex] is focus and [tex](h,k\pm a)[/tex] is vertex.

Center is (0,0). So, h=0 and k=0.

Foci are [tex](0,\pm \sqrt{73})[/tex]. So [tex]c=\sqrt{73}[/tex].

Vertices are [tex](0,\pm 8)[/tex]. So [tex]a=8[/tex].

We know that,

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]8^2+b^2=(\sqrt{73})^2[/tex]

[tex]b^2=73-64[/tex]

[tex]b=3[/tex]

Put h=0,k=0, a=8 and b=3 in equation (1).

[tex]\dfrac{(y-0)^2}{8^2}-\dfrac{(x-0)^2}{3^2}=1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{y^2}{64}-\dfrac{x^2}{9}=1[/tex]

Therefore, the required equation is [tex]\dfrac{y^2}{64}-\dfrac{x^2}{9}=1[/tex] .

1 + 3 = 4

4 + 5 = 9

9 + 1 = 10

10 + 9 = 19

19 + 8 = 27

27 + 4 = 31

31 + 3 = 34

34 + 5 = 39

39 + 6 = 45

45 + 12 = 57

57 + 24 = 81

81 + 11 = 92

92 + 3 = 95

95 + 9 = 104

104 + 8 = 112

112 + 1 = 113

113 + 4 = 117

117 + 5 = 122

122 + 6 = 128

128 + 2 = 130

130 + 32 = 162

162 + 1 = 163

163 + 1 = 164

Step-by-step explanation:

For triangles: (bases and heights of both triangles are equal)

Base = 4 units, height = 3 units

For trapezoid:

Base 1 = 5 units, base 2 = 3 units, height = 8 units

Area of figure = Area of two triangles + Area of trapezoid

= 2 *1/2 * base * height + 1/2(base 1+ base 2) *height

Suppose you computed a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean weight between two species of snakes in a large nature reserve (species #1 – species #2), and your interval is –3.6 to 61.6 ounces. What can you conclude?

Answers

Answer:

1. In a situation were we are willing to use 90% confidence, this means we could say that the observed difference that we have in the sample means tend to represents a real difference in the population means.

2. We cannot actually say because even with 95% confidence, that is the observed difference in sample means tend to as well represents a real difference in the population means.

3. Because the interval extends further in the positive direction than the negative direction this means that the evidence suggests that species #1 tend to weighs more than species #2 on average, but we can't actually say for sure.

n = 40 monthly payments

The present value is found by

[tex]$ PV = MP \times \frac{ (1 - \frac{1}{(1+r)^n} )}{r} $[/tex]

Where r is monthly interest rate.

MP is the monthly payment.

[tex]$ PV = 375 \times \frac{ (1 - \frac{1}{(1+0.02083)^{40}} )}{0.02083} $[/tex]

[tex]PV = 375 \times (26.96)[/tex]
