X= -3
Here's why: The directrix always goes behind the vertext of the parabola (thus the -3), and follows the curve (this parabola demands a vertical line, and we know x=a number creates a vertical line on a graph).
On Monday, Nora read ¼ of the book, therefore she is left
with ¾ of the original book.
Then on Tuesday, she read 2/5 of what was left on Monday
therefore she is left with 3/5 of ¾ of the original book. This is equal to:
(3/5) (3/4) = 9/20
<span>She still needs to read 9/20 of the book or 0.45 or 45% of
the book.</span>
The answer for the blank is 0.003
This is the slope value, which is the number in front of the x in the least squares regression line. Each time x increases by 1, y increases by 0.003
This is the predicted y value of course.
