We have to find the parameter a so that (-1,2) is part of the function f(x) = ax²+4.
To check if a point is part of a function, we can replace the values of x and y = f(x) with the coordinates of the point and then, if the equation stays true, then the point is part of the function.
So for (x,y) = (-1,2) to be part of the function y = f(x), this equation has to stands true:

Then, the function would have to be f(x) = -2x² + 4.
We can check with a graph as:
Answer: a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required
The standard deviation
First, calculate the expected value E(x)

So, we have:


Next, calculate E(x^2)

So, we have:


The standard deviation is:

Answer:
(A:) I created a scatter plot similar to the one i used for mine, this is for the first part of your question
(B:) Positive Association
Step-by-step explanation:
(B:) Why? Because as your x value increases so does your y and it shows this with the data as well.
I had a tough time with this until i actually read through what it was really asking so i hope this helps you
So if there are two pieces of a total stalk of celery of 6 inches, then 6/2 gives you 3 inches per piece of stalk of celery.
