1. The question about the weight of the football team players is statistical because it requires data collection to answer it and the data is variable.

2. The question about the height of Ben's mother is <u>non-statistical</u> because it does not require data collection to answer and the data is not variable, since it is one data point.

<h3>What is a statistical question?</h3>

A statistical question can be answered by collecting data and for which data will vary.

Questions answered with a single data point are <u>not statistical</u> because there is no data variability to answer them.

A statistical question can be determined by the following criteria:

  • Provides useful data about a group of people.
  • Many people can answer it.
  • There will be many different answers.
  • The data collected explains a situation or reality.

Thus, the question about the weight of the players asks a statistical question, unlike the height of Ben's mother.

Answer:

y = - \frac{2}{5} (x - 5)² + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a quadratic in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k ) = (5, 7 ) , then

y = a(x - 5)² + 7

To find a substitute (10, - 3 ) into the equation

- 3 = a(10 - 5)² + 7 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

- 10 = 5²a = 25a ( divide both sides by 25 )

\frac{-10}{25} = a , that is

a = - \frac{2}{5}

y = - \frac{2}{5} (x - 5)² + 7 ← in vertex form

The function y = x 2 - 10x + 31 has a ____
katrin [286]

Answer:

Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank

Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the maxima or minima of a function, we have to take the first derivative and then put it equal to zero to find the critical values.

Given function is:

f(x) = x^2-10x+31

Taking first derivative

f'(x) = 2x-10

Now the first derivative has to be put equal to zero to find the critical value

2x-10 = 0\\2x = 10\\x = \frac{10}{2} = 5

The function has only one critical value which is 5.

Taking 2nd derivative

f''(x) =2

f''(5) = 2

As the value of 2nd derivative is positive for the critical value 5, this means that the function has a minimum value at x = 5

The value can be found out by putting x=5 in the function

f(5) = (5)^2-10(5)+31\\=25-50+31\\=6

Hence,

<u>The function y = x 2 - 10x + 31 has a minimum  value of 6</u>

Hence,

Option B. minimum is correct for the first blank

Option C. 6 is correct for second blank.
