What is Quadratic Equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax² + bx + c = 0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.

Given data ,

Let the function be f ( x ) = y

And , y = x² + 2x - 8

So , f ( x ) = x² + 2x - 8

Substituting the value for x in the equation , we get

When x = -3

f ( -3 ) = ( -3 )² + 2( -3 ) - 8

= 9 - 6 - 8

= 9 - 14

f ( -3 ) = -5

When x = 1

f ( 1 ) = ( 1 )² + 2( 1 ) - 8

= 1 + 2 - 8

= 3 - 8

f ( 1 ) = -5

Hence , the value of y = -5

A consumer survey indicates that the average household spendsμ= $185on groceries each week. The distribution of spending amounts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

$P(X>200)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{200-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{200-185}{25})=P(Z>0.6)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table or excel:

$P(Z>0.6)=1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the average household spent of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(185,25)$
