The y axis? As the graph is symmetrical on either side of it

$\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients} \\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{3}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+5}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2} \qquad \qquad \left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)$

$\bf \left( -\cfrac{5}{2(3)}~~-2-\cfrac{5^2}{4(3)} \right)\implies \left(-\cfrac{5}{6}~~,~~-2-\cfrac{25}{12} \right)\implies \stackrel{\stackrel{axis~\hfill }{coordinate\qquad }}{\left(-\cfrac{5}{6}~~,~~-\cfrac{49}{12} \right)} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{axis of symmetry}}{x=-\cfrac{5}{6}}~\hfill$

let's notice, that the squared variable is the "x", and therefore this is a vertical parabola whose axis of symmetry is the vertical line equation of the x-coordinate of its vertex.

Consider the expressions 7y + 5 − 3 and 7y + 2. Which statement is true?

An elementary school is offering 3 language classes: one in Spanish, one in French,and one in German. The classes are open to an

Alona [7]

Answer:

A. 0.5

B. 0.32

C. 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

There are

28 students in the Spanish class,
26 in the French class,
16 in the German class,
12 students that are in both Spanish and French,
4 that are in both Spanish and German,
6 that are in both French and German,
2 students taking all 3 classes.

So,

2 students taking all 3 classes,
6 - 2 = 4 students are in French and German, bu are not in Spanish,
4 - 2 = 2 students are in Spanish and German, but are not in French,
12 - 2 = 10 students are in Spanish and French but are not in German,
16 - 2 - 4 - 2 = 8 students are only in German,
26 - 2 - 4 - 10 = 10 students are only in French,
28 - 2 - 2 - 10 = 14 students are only in Spanish.

In total, there are

2 + 4 + 2 + 10 + 8 + 10 +14 = 50 students.

The classes are open to any of the 100 students in the school, so

100 - 50 = 50 students are not in any of the languages classes.

A. If a student is chosen randomly, the probability that he or she is not in any of the language classes is

$\dfrac{50}{100} =0.5$

B. If a student is chosen randomly, the probability that he or she is taking exactly one language class is

$\dfrac{8+10+14}{100}=0.32$

C. If 2 students are chosen randomly, the probability that both are not taking any language classes is

$0.5\cdot 0.5=0.25$

So, the probability that at least 1 is taking a language class is

$1-0.25=0.75$
