Answer:

D) f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given </h3>

Graph of the function

The function in factored form

According to graph we observe:

the function has 3 roots at x = 1, 2, 3;
the function is of odd degree;
the function is increasing, so the coefficient is positive

This gives us the function:

f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)

The matching answer choice is D

Help me plz I do not understand

It is quite simple actually since it is simple division with the negative rules.
Just simplify the problem and use the negatives to determine if it is positive or negative. (two negatives equal a positive and one negative equals a negative)

Complete the square and write in standard form. Show all work.What would be the conic section:CircleEllipseHyperbolaParabola

mote1985 [20]

ANSWER

This is an ellipse. The equation is:

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

EXPLANATION

We have to complete the square for each variable. To do so, we have to take the first two terms and compare them with the perfect binomial squared formula,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

For x we have to take 16x² and -32x. Since the coefficient of x is not 1, first, we have to factor out the coefficient 16,

$16x^2-32x=16(x^2-2x)$

Now, the first term of the expanded binomial would be x and the second term -2x. Thus, the binomial is,

$(x-1)^2=x^2-2x+1$

To maintain the equation, we have to subtract 1,

$16(x^2-2x+1-1)=16((x-1)^2-1)=16(x-1)^2-16$

Now, we replace (16x² - 32x) from the given equation by this equivalent expression,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9y^2+72y+16=0$

The next step is to do the same for y. We have the terms 9y² + 72y. Again, since the coefficient of y² is not 1, we factor out the coefficient 9,

$9y^2+72y=9(y^2+8y)$

Following the same reasoning as before, we have that the perfect binomial squared is,

$(y+4)^2=y^2+8y+16$

Remember to subtract the independent term to maintain the equation,

$9(y^2+8y)=9(y^2+8y+16-16)=9((y+4)^2-16)=9(y+4)^2-144$

And now, as we did for x, replace the two terms (9y² + 72y) with this equivalent expression in the equation,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9(y+4)^2-144+16=0$

Add like terms,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2+(-16-144+16)=0 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144=0 \end{gathered}$

Add 144 to both sides,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144+144=0+144 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2=144 \end{gathered}$

As we can see, this is the equation of an ellipse. Its standard form is,

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$

So the next step is to divide both sides by 144 and also write the coefficients as fractions in the denominator,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{16(x-1)^2}{144}+\frac{9(y+4)^2}{144}=\frac{144}{144} \\ \\ \frac{(x-1)^2}{\frac{144}{16}}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{\frac{144}{9}}=1 \end{gathered}$

Finally, we have to write the denominators as perfect squares, so we identify the values of a and b. 144 is 12², 16 is 4² and 9 is 3²,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{(\frac{12}{4})^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{(\frac{12}{3})^2}=1$

Note that we can simplify a and b,

$\frac{12}{4}=3\text{ and }\frac{12}{3}=4$

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

Consider a population list x, with a CV= 10%. A second population list, y, has a CV= 20%. The linear regression of y on x is y =

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The correlation coefficient 0.5 depicts that there is moderate positive correlation between y and x.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear regression equation is

y= a+bx

The given linear equation is

y= 10x

Here, slope=b=10 and intercept=a=0.

From above equation,

ybar=10xbar

We are given that CVx=0.1 and CVy=0.2

where CV=(standard deviation/mean)*100

We know that

b=r(Sy/Sx)

Multiplying by xbar/ybar on both sides

(xbar/ybar)b=r(Sy/Sx)(xbar/ybar)

(xbar/ybar)b=r[(Sy/ybar)/(Sx/xbar))]

(xbar/ybar)b=r[CVy/CVx]

As CVy/CVx=(Sy/ybar)*100/(Sx/xbar)*100=(Sy/ybar)/(Sx/xbar).

By putting ybar=10xbar, b=10, CVx=0.1 and CVy=0.2.

(xbar/10xbar)10=r(0.2/0.1)

1=r(0.2/0.1)

1=r(2)

r=0.5

There is moderate positive correlation between y and x.
